Frugal Mania

I can’t believe it is Friday already.  What a week it has been!  How about some free MP3 downloads to get the weekend off to a great start?  That’s right - free music downloads for you!

Here are my top five free and legal mp3 music downloads for this week, all courtesy of Amazon.com:

Artist: Eric Lindell
Track: "Lay Back Down"
Genre: Singer/Songwriter
Download: click here
Notes:  In the same vein as John Mayer, Eric Lindell has a laid back, smooth sound that goes down as smooth as a quart of ice cream and a chick flick.

Artist:  The Apples in Stereo
Track:  "Energy"
Genre:  Alternative Pop
Download:  click here
Notes:  Don’t let the name of the band throw you, this is a catchy tune that will have you doing the chair boogie in no time!

Artist:  OMD (Orchestral Maneuvers in the Dark)
Track:  "If You Leave"
Genre:  80s
Download:  click here
Notes:  If you remember the ’80s, you no doubt remember OMD.  The song available for download is a recent live performance of their mega hit from the era of big hair and parachute pants.

Artist:  Dolly Parton
Track:  "Better Get to Livin’"
Genre:  Country
Download:  click here
Notes:  I don’t care if you like country music or not, you can’t help but to love Dolly.  Any song released from a CD called "Backwoods Barbie" has to be worth a listen, right?  You won’t be disappointed, I promise.

Artist: Kidz Bop Kidz
Track: "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun"
Genre:  Children’s Music
Download:  click here
Notes:  The Cyndi Lauper ’80s classic has been revamped for a much younger generation.  Your kids will love this tune and it is made just for them!

Stay tuned for more great music download freebies next week, and don’t forget to link to this post, Stumble and DIGG it and tell all your friends how much you love Frugal Mania!
