Well, hello blog my old friend.
Do you ever have them days where your brain feels overloaded so you need to empty it? Well thats why I'm writing this, and that was a rhetorical question. I'm not expecting anyone to actually read this but if you are, well... hello. You made it this far, congratulations you have won nothing.
Let me start with a song
I heard this for the first time today and it has taken my breath away. It's by Disclosure & London Grammar called 'Help Me Lose My Mind'. Do you ever just hear a song and from the first listen it takes over your brain?
No?
Just Me?
I'm talking to myself anyway so I guess the answer is yes.
I just love this song so much. In fact it's playing on repeat on my iTunes as we speak. It's one of those songs that I have already become so attached to that it is possible in a week I won't have listened to anything else. Although when you have Queen's like Beyoncé performing new tunes that are as amazing as hers, well, they'll just have to go on shuffle.
Speaking of Queen Bey, I'm still not over how amazing her Sound Of Change performance was. It's hard not to be impressed by someone who sounds flawless when they sing yet when they speak they sound like their throat is being ripped out. How does she do it? The perks of being a God I guess. I woke my ass up at 5:30am on a Sunday for that shit and I don't regret it for a minute.
She a grown woman, she can do whatever she wants. Including being fierce as fuck. I bring you Example A
Now let's appreciate her some more. Her face when she struts out on stage. Erm please stop being so awesome thanks. This song is another one that has been giving me life since the first time I heard it a few weeks ago. Blessed by Beysus <3
Yes it's awesome. Yes I've watched performances of this song a gazillion time so I could learn the dance routine. Yes I know it off by heart now. No I'm not ashamed.
My heart is still at the disco.
Still writing your name on the window.
Still crying on the metro.
On The Metro.
Now let's go the other direction. Kylie has a new song floating around called Skirt which has got me thinking. Do people really listen to music anymore and just like it or not like it, or do they just like it without thinking because their favourite artist recorded it?
The reason I say that is because this song isn't exactly your standard Kylie tune. I'm sure there's a lot of people who really do like the song but I'm not sure all of them genuinely do.
On a side note why did Cheryl Cole have to go and annoy me so much? I've gone from stan to 'don't look at me' in the space of a day. So disappointed with that woman. Ask me again in a week and I'll probably be over it.
I'm super excited about going to a gig on Sunday. This will be the first live music thang I've been too since seeing Girls Aloud in Liverpool nearly 3 months ago. Can't wait to dance up a storm to some beats!
I haven't been to a gig like this since I saw Chris Liebing last year. He's playing here again this week and there was no way I was going to miss it. If he stands next to me at the bar again I will try not to die this time!
Still listening to that Disclosure tune. Loving it more than when I started writing this.
I think I'm done now.
Peace out xx
(someone else has to read this now or I just double kissed myself)
