Hello You Lovely Lot!

Obviously I listen to music all the time but I feel like this month I’ve listened to so much. Maybe that’s because I spent quite a lot o this month on my own (can you hear the violins because I can) so what better way to spend my time than to listening to music? I tend to use iTunes more than Spotify nowadays so I’ll try to get back in to using Spotify because I love writing these posts and looking back on the songs that I’ve loved!

Boy Without A Car – Wake Up – The Vamps

Kind of half way through this month I found out that my friend Amy would come and see The Vamps with me! I love The Vamps and even though Amy doesn’t I’m still so excited. So, I decided to give their album more of a listen (even though I am already head over heels in love with it). This wasn’t a song that I particularly loved when I first listened to the album because it just didn’t grab me like some of the others! However, it is probably now one of my favourites on the album. This was on last months playlist too which just goes to show how much I really have enjoyed it!

Favourite Lyric : 'I don't know how we got this far, I'm just another boy without a car'

Somebody Else – Somebody Else (single) – The 1975

This is another one that was on last months post too and even though it is on this playlist, I only really listened to it at the beginning of the month. Although I won’t turn it off when it comes on, I don’t necessarily go to play it voluntarily now! However, I still stand by the fact that it is a lovely song although I also stand by the fact that I liked the live version I found on YouTube more.

'Favourite Lyric : 'So I took all my things that make sound, the rest I can do without'

NO – Thank You – Meghan Trainor

Natalie sent this to me because Meghan Trainor is our girl (not literally, that would be weird). We loved her first album so much so when I heard that this was a new song I was on it as soon as I had a spare minute! I don’t think I was 100% sure when I first heard it, maybe because it’s not her typical sound I guess? However, now it’s something that I play all the time and pretty much know every single word. I think it will always remind me of my time in Berlin because me and Natalie danced around to it a fair few times.

Favourite Lyric : 'Call me beautiful, so original'

Cheater – Wake Up – The Vamps

This is now at the top of my ’25 most played’ songs on iTunes! The minute this came out I loved it and I hadn’t listened to it in ages but when I found out that I was going to see the boys live I played it again and my obsession started to grow once more. This was in my October and November favourites which I think is a first for me to still be so obsessed with something after so long. I think this is the song I’m most excited to see live and I will be singing my heart out to every single word.

Favourite Lyric : 'All his dirty secrets are banging on the bedroom floor, you know she aint a friend at all'

R U Crazy – R U Crazy (Single) – Conor Maynard

I’ve loved this song for a while and I can’t remember how I first found it but when I found out that Conor was one of the supports for The Vamps I jumped straight back on it. This song also makes me think of Natalie because we both went through a stage of just loving it. I don’t know many songs by Conor so I think I really need to listen to all of his music before I see him (not that I’ve got much time left).

Favourite Lyric : 'Nothing sounds better than 'hit the road jack''

Worry – Wake Up – The Vamps

This is another one of my favourites from this Vamps album and I think it always has been. I told Amy I might cry if they play this but she told me she would leave so not sure how that’s gonna go down. I listen to this pretty much every day on the way to Uni and back or just sat in my room. It’s one that I can really sing a long to and I don’t really care who hears to be honest. I just think it’s a beautiful song and I don’t really know what else to say. Go and give it a listen!

Favourite Lyric : 'Who shuts the curtain now I'm gone?'

I Write Sings Not Tragedies – A Fever You Can’t Sweat Out – Panic! At The Disco

I don’t know why but one night I decided I should listen to this lot. My friend Maddie used to love them and I never really got the hype (mainly because I never listened to them) but now that I’ve seen a few more people raving about them I decided that I should look in to them! This was the only song that I downloaded but I’m glad I did! I haven’t decoded whether it’s my usual type of music to be honest because although I love my One Direction and my Little Mix I also like heavier stuff like GreenDay and Frank Turner so my iTunes is a real mix of genres. All I know is that I enjoy this song!

Favourite Lyric : 'Haven't you people ever heard of closing the god damn door?'

Disconnected – She Looks So Perfect (Single) – 5 Seconds of Summer

I am also seeing 5SOS next month high pitched SCREAM. I looked at the setlist for the European tour and saw that this was on it so, since I didn’t know it too well, I thought it would be a good idea to listen to it and all of a sudden I loved it! I don’t know all of the words yet but every time I listen to it I know a little bit more so hopefully come the actual concert I’ll know it off by heart. Definitely an unsung hero this song.

Favourite Lyric : 'We get so disconnected'

Another World – Meet The Vamps – The Vamps

I love this album so much and I had just forgotten about it (how very dare I, I am appaled with myself I have to say). This album was pretty much my 2014 soundtrack and when I listen to it now I still love every single song. Especially this one. I just think it is beautifully written and beautifully sang too (as is every song by The Vamps). When I went to see them live last time they played this and I just absolutely loved it so I’m really hoping that there will be a similar situation on the 5^th of April!

Favourite Lyric : 'People like to talk, but I can't understand a word'

Here – Four Pink Walls – Alessia Cara

Natalie has loved this girl for ages so when her album came out on Spotify I knew that I had to listen to it and I was instantly hooked by this song. I think I already knew it from somewhere, maybe it was Natalie sending me snapchats? I don’t know. I think the fact I already knew it a bit made it even more appealing and I think I only listened to one other song from the album (which I also loved) because I just wanted to listen to this again and again.

Favourite Lyric : 'Somewhere in the corner under clouds of marijuana'

U.N.I - + - Ed Sheeran

This is such an old song but was always one of my favourites on this album. I’m not sure what made me listen to this album again, I think I was at Uni and feeling a bit low. So, what do you do when you’re low? You listen to sad songs that make you feel even lower but also somehow make you feel happier. This is one of those songs for me for whatever reason but I think Ed Sheeran in general is good for those moods.

Favourite Lyric : 'I don;t cry tears of missing you anymore, they're more like tsunami tides in my eyes'

Grown – Get Weird – Little Mix

This was kind of a song I listened to on and off throughout the month. When I was on the plane to and from Berlin I was feeling a bit anxious so I put this on and it calmed me down no end. I guess it just made me feel empowered maybe? I would love to see this but unfortunately, as of yet, I have no tickets to go and see Little Mix. This album has definitely been a soundtrack for 2016 so far for me, this song especially.

Favourite Lyric : 'It's funny how the tables turned'

Risk It All – Meet The Vamps – The Vamps

This was another ‘Uh Oh I haven’t listened to this song in ages better scrub up on my lyrical knowledge ‘ song and I think I’d forgotten just how much I used to love this song. It’s just so beautiful to me for whatever reason. Maybe it’s the lyrics, maybe it’s Brad’s angelic voice? We may never know ladies and gentlemen. I can’t remember if they played this the last time I saw then but if they did I can tell you that it was brilliant and if they didn’t then I would have been highly upset since it was a favourite from day one.

Favourite Lyric : 'I'd rather crash I'd rather crawl'

So, there we have it! That's all the music I've been loving this month and probably the music I'll be loving next month too...

Thanks For Reading!
