Music Monday!

FINALLY NEW POST!! 
So as you know I went away and that's why I've haven't been on and so that gives me lots of time to listen to new music! 

Firstly I finally watched Fall Out Boy's The Young Blood Chronicles and I loved it!! I'm big into music videos and watch them a lot as it's something I'm interested in doing when I'm older, and I loved these. Basically it's all of the songs from their album Save Rock and Roll, turned into a massive movie cut into the eleven songs. So each song carries on from the next but now you can watch it as a whole movie and I'm so in love with all of the songs! I love this genre of music which surprises people a lot but I've always loved Fall Out Boy, even all their old songs.
My favourite ones are probably Just One Yesterday, Rat A Tat and Young Volcanoes. And to be warned the music videos are pretty twisted and a bit strange but I think that's why I think they're so interesting!
So you guys should definitely go and check the whole film out here! (It is pretty long!)

Next are just a few songs I've been listening to lately.
First is by The Vamps and it's called Oh Cecelia. I loved this song when they brought it out the first time but they've released it again with my favourite person Shawn Mendes on the track too so I was over the moon! I've also got tickets for The Vamps soon so I need to start listening to their album again!

Next is I Know by Shift K3Y.
I loved their song Touch so when I listened to this one I loved it immediately!
It's a great partying/club song and I think that it's really catchy so I've been listening to this a lot!
and again the music video is super cool and interesting.

Next is Comeback by Ella Eyre.
I love her voice off other songs she's featured on and this song is so good to belt out with your girls whilst you're getting ready for a night out! She's so strong and powered with this song and gives us girls something to sing about! Love it!

And last is two new releases from my faves. The first is One Direction's first song they've released from their next album 'Four'. It's called Fireproof and it's a cute song with nice harmonies but the boys sound amazing in their solos and makes me excited for the full album!
And the last one is off the Amnesia single by 5 Seconds of Summer and it's called Daylight.
It's a great up beat from them that seems to be about vampires haha but it's a really fun song and I can't stop listening to it!

So as usual a diverse music taste but hope you like it and check some of them out!

Stay Happy

Music Mondays!

So I do love my music. I don't think I've ever gone a day without listening to it. 
I like to think of my music taste as diverse because I listen to lots of different genres ranging from Chart Music to Country to Punk so I think it's a good idea for me to share a weekly playlist with you guys where I share which songs/artists I have been loving the past week!

Recently I went to V Festival and listened to some artists I'd never seen before but I also saw ones that I absolutely adored. So firstly an artist I've been loving this week is Ed Sheeran. I hadn't really heard much from his new album before I went to watch him but as soon as I heard him sing the songs I knew I needed to get it. I can't praise him enough for how good he was on stage and I'm really proud of how far he's come from the beginning. He's so humble and you can tell he loves every second of performing. 
My favourites off his new album are Nina, Tenerife Sea, Bloodstream, Afire Love, All Of The Stars and I See Fire.
His lyrics have developed so well in this album, ranging from meaningful songs to romantic songs, especially Tenerife Sea, it's the kind of song you want to be serenaded on a beach with! Which is why I love it so much, being a typical girl! And obviously if you've seen The Fault In Our Stars like me, you'll understand why I love All Of The Stars so much!
So if you haven't already you have to go and buy his X album because it's well worth it. Obviously it's not the party kind of music but it's great to listen to when you're feeling thoughtful!

Also another artist I've been loving this week is a girl called Chlöe Howl. To be truthful before V Fest I'd never heard of her before but my friend insisted I go to watch her and I'm so glad I did. She has such a unique voice and is amazing live! She deserved such a bigger crowd than she got. My favourites of hers are Disappointed and Rumour as she isn't afraid to express her feelings in her songs. Her lyrics are so clever and I can't wait for her to show everyone what she's made of!

And the last artist to talk about is a boy called Shawn Mendes. He started off singing 6 seconds snippets on the Vine App where he got more and more views. Eventually he actually did manage to bag himself a record deal where he's produced his own EP. I've always been a fan of his singing because I think he has such a unique voice. He's two years younger than me but he already has a huge fandom and I think he'll end up being really big soon. Because he is so young I half expected his songs and lyrics to be really 'poppy' and a bit cheesy like similar 16 year-olds songs but he blew me away by the lyrics of his songs and the music he sings to. His favourites of mine are The Weight and Life Of The Party.

and just a few extra songs-
Rizzle Kicks- Tell Her. These guys surprised me so much at V Fest. They have amazing energy on stage and their voices are really great! I fell in love with their new single immediately.

Capital Cities- Safe and Sound. I know this song is about a year old but I still love this song and it's squeezed its way back into my playlist recently!

Iggy Azalea & Rita Ora- Black Widow. I love this song as I'm slowly falling in love with Iggy Azalea and this song is all about girl power so I'm all in!

Taylor Swift- Shake It Off. I've seen so many mixed reviews about this song and I'll be honest I'm not too much of a Taylor Swift fan but I fell in love with this song. It's so catchy and I love that in the video she doesn't take herself too seriously. It's a happy song that you will find yourself singing along to!

David Guetta- Lovers On The Sun. This is my favourite party song I've been listening to recently. Sam Martin's voice in this is amazing and I love the whole beat of the song. I've also heard it played in a lot of clubs recently too!


So they are the artists/songs that I've been listening to recently. I want to try and make this a weekly thing although not sure how it's going to work next week as I'm holiday but I will try and post something!

Thanks for reading, comment who you've been listening to this week, I love discovering new artists/songs!

Stay Happy
