DAY 8

I'm back. For a variety of reasons I haven't written for a while. Such is life. Along with the music making.
A song you know all the words to...
Cry me a river
I like this song very much. And I sing it a lot. And the whole crying rivers thing seems appropriate sometimes. And I'll shut up now.
Actually I won't, I'll talk about jazz a bit. Jazz music is really really cool. If you think about it, blues is the same stuff as heavy metal. A really depressed singer, a heavy bass line, piano, guitar... And both a bit anti-mainstream.
As I was watching Eurovision this year I realised how much most pop music bores me. The occasional good song comes up, but most of it is just cheesy, self obsessed, regurgitated crap. I listened to the 'most popular' playlist on grooveshark and it depressed me so much. People don't seem to from there own opinions on music, they just listen to what's expected of them. So I try my hardest not to. That's why I listen to Taylor Swift and Rise Against and Billie Holiday and Metallica. It doesn't even matter if people don't know. Listen to someone else's music and you'll find understand some of what they're feeling.
Over and out.

DAY 7

A song that reminds you of a certain event. This song reminds me of my 15th birthday. I listened to it and thought of all the crap I'm gonna have this year. Which was a stupid thing to do on my birthday i guess.

A song that reminds you of somewhere...
Um. This song reminds me Andy's bedroom. And aliens.

DAY 5

A song that reminds you of someone. This reminds me of dancing with two of the coolest people I know. And many science lessons since then.

A song that makes you sad.

You know those songs you wish someone would sing to you and mean it? This song makes me cry.

I'M BACK!

After the thrilling fun of the lake district I return to grace, once again, your computer screens. Not that I don't love you children, but I wish I was back in the sun, to be honest. School just brings home how much I hate various aspects of myself/my life/humans/the universe. I will do a catchy up thingy of the songs.
