And now, time for this months songs..

On What You're On - On What You're On (Single) - Busted

This is the second single to come out of Busted's upcoming album and it makes me so excited! I wasn't sure about the new Busted sound but I know that I love this song and that it's just so catchy. I love listening to it when I'm walking to Uni or in the shower. I even have tickets to see them next February and I have no doubt that I'll hear this!

Favourite Lyric : 'Are we dancing to the same song? I wanna know what you're on'

This Town - This Town (Single) - Niall Horan

OF COURSE this was going to make it in to this playlist. I first heard this when I was very hungover and very sad and I have never cried at something so trivial in my life (damn you Niall). I think it's so beautiful and shows everyone that Niall is such a talented writer and singer too. Which makes us all question why his singles in Up All Night were basically non-existent. HUH MODEST?! HUH?!

Favourite Lyric : 'In the pub that we met he's got his arms around you'

Pretty Little Liar - Pretty Little Liar (Single) - MY

This is the band that supported McFly when I went to see them! i really liked this one and so I found it on Spotify! it's not like the music I would usually listen to but I have to admit that it is a new favourite! MY were also amazing live and if they ever played near me I'm sure I would go!

Favourite Lyric : 'Doesn't help that you were beautiful, no I'm not ok at all'

Ex's & Oh's - Love Stuff - Elle King

I knew of this song but had never really listened to it all the way through. That was until it was on X-Factor and by Emily and I have loved it ever since! I think it's so clever and just such a catchy song. It's one that most people know too, no matter what your music taste is!

Favourite Lyric : '1 2 3 they gonna run back to me, they always wanna come but they never wanna leave'

My Way - My Way (Single) - Calvin Harris 

I am definitely not someone who usually likes this kind of music and I kind of avoid the charts just because it's not really my cup of tea 90% of the time. However, for some reason I have been so in love with this song. Maybe it's just Calvin Harris because I also loved 'This Is What You Came For'?! Either way, this is a song that I definitely wont mind hearing when I'm on a night out.

Favourite Lyric : 'Why wait to say 'At least I did it my way'?

Sunsets and Heartbreak - Up at Night - Cimorelli

I decided to really try and listen to this whole album after falling in love with half of it last month and this is the one that really stood out to me. It makes me so emotional and has also been added to my playlist for when I'm said (please tell me I'm not the only one who has one of those). I just think Cimorelli also have a real talent for songwriting and obviously singing too.

Favourite Lyric : 'Between red lights and mistakes I can't stand here in this earthquake'

Girls And Boys In Love - Girls and Weather - The Rumble Strips

I fell in love with this again because earlier on in the month Nicole, Jack and I watched the absolute classic that is 'Angus, Thongs and Perfect Snogging'. If you know that film well you'll recognise this song instantly and I think it's a song that will just always perk me up no matter what. It will always remind me of the film which is such a feel-good film!

Favourite Lyric : 'Move to the city, lose all your heart'

Best Fake Smile - Chaos And The Calm - James Bay

I found this song on a playlist that came up on Spotify. I don't know much of James Bay's music but the ones I do know I love and this is no different. The whole idea of the song is that if you're not happy with something you don't have to just stand there and smile. You can do something about it and I think that's something I really need to learn and day by day i feel like this song might be working.

Favourite Lyric : 'No you don't have to stand there and burn inside'

Shout Out to My Ex - Shout Out to My Ex (Single) - Little Mix

I am IN LOVE with this song. The other week we played it in our kitchen and had it on really loud and I feel like it was exactly what I needed. I don't even have an ex that this song could be about but I feel like it's a song that makes me angry almost? Like when I sing it I do feel like it's to a specific person but I have no idea who that person is. I just feel so empowered when I'm singing along to it and it's my favourite song at the moment.

Favourite Lyric : 'Oh baby, I'm cool by the way'

Open Your Eyes - Up To Now - Snow Patrol

This is another song that I discovered through a Spotify playlist (the same Spotify playlist as the James Bay one believe it or not, what a brilliant playlist, it's called 'The Great British Breakfast' incase anyone cares). Now, we all love a bit of 'Chasing Cars' and if you don't you're lying. I had no idea this song even existed but I'm so glad I know now. It's one of those songs they play in movies or on DIY SOS when the family see the house for the first time, that kind of vibe. Very chill, very emotional.

Favourite Lyric : 'Get up, get out, get away from these lies'

Are U Having Any Fun? - Happy Camper - Hoodie Allen 

Every now and then I go through a phase where I love Hoodie Allen and right now is one of those phases. When I first heard this new album I won't lie, I really didn't like it. For some reason I decided to give it another chance around a week ago and I listened to the first song (this one) and stopped because I fell in love. I don't really know what was different about it and how I felt about it but for some reason, my opinion of it has changed.

Favourite Lyric : 'Meanwhile, I got every Will Smith CD'

F*** Apologies - Mad Love - JoJo

I've known this song for a while but it's taken me a few weeks to fall in love with it. I think that's just because I listened to it once and then didn't listen to it again until it made it on to this playlist. I'm so happy that JoJo is making music again, especially when it's music that's this good. If you haven't heard any of her new music then you really have to go and have a gander because it's incredible stuff!

Favourite Lyric : 'And honestly I was just about to pick up the phone, then I realised that I didn't do nothing wrong'

So, there you have it everyone, that's what I've been listening to this month!

Thanks For Reading!

So, I just wanted to talk to you about concerts (hence the name of the blog post...). Today, my dad bought me and him tickets to go and see Frank Turner, who you all know is one of my faves, in Liverpool.

I am going to 6 concerts this year so far...

5 Seconds of Summer - 12th April - Nottingham
Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds - 25th April - Liverpool
Busted - 24th May - Sheffield
Coldplay - 4th June - Manchester
Blackberry Smoke - 23rd June - Nottingham
Frank Turner - 8th July - Liverpool

and have already been to one...

The Vamps - 5th April - Nottingham

Now, two of these are really because my Dad didn't want to go on his own so I agreed to go with him (Noel Gallagher (although I am now very excited to see him) and Blackberry Smoke). However, I have no doubt that I will still enjoy them.

People tell me I go to too many concerts but something about concerts makes me so happy. I am that girl that usually cried at concerts, not because I'm sad, but because they just make me so ridiculously happy. Maybe it's just being in an arena (in most cases) full of people that also share your love for the people and the songs. I have got a lot better at keeping my emotions in check though and nowadays I just tend to cry at the first song, my favourite song and the last song. Some people will totally get this but some people might think I'm absolutely crazy. When I see Coldplay live I think I'll cry SO much because it's the first time I will have ever seen them live and I've loved them for so long.

Concerts like McBusted ones are particularly special because before my first McBusted concert I hadn't seen Busted in around 10 years. Busted were my childhood and so to go to a Busted concerts that I actually remember is amazing and I am even more excited to see them in May! I think Coldplay will have the same effect on me as would a few other bands.

When it comes to bands like One Direction and McFly I think I just cry because they are bands that really make me happy and have got me through tough times I guess? When I was front row at McFly I managed to not cry until 'The Heart Never Lies' (which if you read my blog regularly, you'll know it's my favourite song EVER) and then I cried my eyes out and Harry had to keep checking on me, lets hope he doesn't remember that? That concert will always hold a special place in my heart and probably will always be my favourite.

Is anyone else like me and goes to too many concerts (although I'm not sure that's even a thing)? Does anyone else cry at concerts or is that just me...please someone tell me it's not just me.

Thanks For Reading!

Hello You Lovely Lot!

So, we all have our fave songs and then we all have our favourite, favourite songs. The songs that have changed your life or really made you think, not just the songs you like to dance around your room in you underwear to...just me? My Dad tagged me in something on Facebook which basically said that you had to list your favourite albums so I thought I would write a blog post about it! This is a list of a few albums or songs that have really made me stop and have had a real impact on my life!

A L B U M S 

Speak Now - Taylor Swift (2010)


This will probably always be my favourite Taylor Swift album. Simply because at the time I related to most of the songs and even if I don't anymore, I can still remember how I felt at the time when they first came out. I don't think there's a song on this album that I don't love but a few of them really just changed my mindset and how I viewed the situations I was in.

Particular Favourites : Long Live, Dear John, Mean

Mylo Xyloto - Coldplay (2011)


I never used to like this album as I am sure I've said about 200 times on this blog. I just used to love all the sad Coldplay stuff and it just didn't sound like Coldplay. I think that that was because when I first started to love Coldplay I was down so happier music just wasn't my kind of thing. I don't remember when I first started listening to this but it must have been a few years after it came out. It was when I was starting to feel happier and these songs just represents so much happiness for me now. This album will always hold a special place in my heart.

Particular Favourites : Hurts Like Heaven, Charlie Brown, Don't Let It Break Your Heart

Radio:ACTIVE - McFly (2008)


I wont lie to you, by the time this had come out, McFly had gone off my radar a bit and I only knew the odd song whereas I knew every song from the first two albums! A few years ago I heard that McFly were playing a gig near me and so I bought tickets to with my friend Lucy and decided it would be best if I downloaded all the albums and made sure I knew the words. Little did I know that this album would fast become a life changer. I don't think it's really an emotional change as much as the other ones but it made me realise how much I love this type of music and not necessarily what's in the charts. McFly themselves have changed my life in so many ways, and this album is just one of those ways. Plus I will always associate 'One For The Radio' with Matt singing it to me at McBusted and 'Lies' with me being in the McFly Tour Diary!

Particular Favourites : Lies, One For The Radio, Falling In Love, POV, Smile

What's The Story Morning Glory? - Oasis (1995)


Obviously I didn't hear this when it first became because I wasn't even born. My Dad's always been a massive influence on me, particularly my music taste. When you're only little, you have to listen to what your parents put on in the car. Now, I can't specifically remember Dad putting this on but he must have played it to me at some point because I was listening to Oasis in like 2011? I remember going on a foreign Exchange and putting loads on my iPod because I loved them. This album just changed the way I think about music and has probably shaped my music taste quite a bit now since I listen to whatever I want and not what Dad puts on (some of the time). This was also a CD I took to Wales the first holiday I could drive and it's all I would listen to so I knew the album back to front by the time that holiday was over!

Particular Favourites : Wonderwall (OBVS), Some Might Say, Cast No Shadow, Morning Glory

Parachutes - Coldplay (2000)


When I wrote a blog post about my favourite albums this was number two but I think that was a more spur of the moment and an album I loved more at the time overtook it (though it was also Coldplay). This has to be my favourite album and one that most definitely changed me. This album is full of sad songs, like any typical old school Coldplay album. I loved this when I feel sad because I guess it maybe just puts things in to perspective maybe? I don't know. It's just a cracking album.

Particular Favourites : Yellow, Trouble, We Never Change, Spies

Busted - Busted (2002)


Yes, this album changed my life. My dad brought this album home when he used to review albums for a newspaper. I was only 5 at the time but Dad tells me I loved it. This album sparked my love for boybands which has not lead to 1D which I'l get to in a minute and I still listen to it now. I'm even seeing Busted (with Charlie this time) in May and I am so excited, might even cry a little bit...

Particular Favourites : Britney, All The Way, Sleeping With The Lights On, When Day Turns In To Night, Everything I Knew

Tape Deck Heart - Frank Turner (2013)


I didn't even honk about putting this on here till Dad suggested it but when I thought about it I realised it has changed my life! I got in to Frank Turner a few years ago (thanks to Dad) and this was the first album I was around for the release for. It is easily one of the best albums ever (and Franks best album) in my opinion! I don't listen to it as much as I used to but I know that when I do listen to it I'll love it. Frank Turner has also brought me a lot closer to Dad which is lovely!

Particular Favourites : Plain Sailing Weather, Tell Tale Signs, Polaroid Picture, The Fisher King Blues, Anymore, Broken Piano, We Shall Not Overcome

Spirit - Leona Lewis (2007)


This was maybe the first album I bought, how crazy is that! I forgot how much I loved it until I started this post! I don't remember two songs called 'Misses Glass' and 'Forgive Me' but I'm pretty sure they weren't on the album when I bought it! I still know most of the words to most of the songs which is weird and something I didn't think would happen. This was pretty much the soundtrack to my childhood and I still love the songs now!

Particular Favourites : Better In Time, I Will Be, Angel, Yesterday, Whatever It Takes, Take A Bow

Hello You Lovely Lot!

This time last year I wrote a blog post all about the top 25 most played songs on my iTunes. So, now it's a year later....I thought I would do it again!

Here's last years list...

2: Elastic Heart - Sia (22 plays)
1: Kill The Director - The Wombats (26 plays)


25: Oh My God - The Kaiser Chiefs (22 plays) LAST YEARS PLACE - 7TH

I haven't listened to this song in such a long time which is probably why it's slipped all the way down! I got in to The Kaiser Chiefs when I started watching The Voice one year and Ricky was on it so now The Voice is back on, they could move up the list!

Favourite Lyric : 'Knock me down I get right back up again, come back stronger than a powered up pac man'
24: James Franco - Hoodie Allen (22 plays) LAST YEARS PLACE - NONE

I don't know why this has only just crept on to this playlist because I loved it in like 2013 and I guess I have got back in to it, but I didn't think it would be here!

Favourite Lyric : 'I hate spiderman two, James Franco'

23 : Get Better - Frank Turner (25 plays) LAST YEARS PLACE - NONE

My Dad got me in to Frank Turner as I'm sure I've told you all many times. Someone accused me of just liking him because Dad does but I think this proves that that's not true. I do love his music when I'm in the right mood!

Favourite Lyric : 'They threw me a whirlwind and I spat back the sea'

22: Runaway - Ed Sheeran (25 plays) LAST YEARS PLACE - 22ND

I still love this song quite a lot but it's similar to Hoodie Allen in that I liked it around 2013 so I'm not sure why it's here! One of my favourite songs from Ed's last album though!

Favourite Lyric : 'I love him from the skin of my bones but I don't wanna live in this home'

16: Jet Black Heart - 5 Seconds Of Summer (29 plays) LAST YEARS PLACE - NONE

This was my favourite song last month even though I wasn't the biggest fan at first. When I saw the video was when I really started to love it. I just think it's beautiful

Favourite Lyric : 'Cause now that I'm broken, and now that you know it'

15: Anti-D - The Wombats (29 plays) LAST YEARS PLACE - 5TH

I really love this song and I haven't listened to it in a while which is why it's slipped down so far on the list! Whenever I do listen to it through I really enjoy it and it's definitely one of my favourite song by The Wombats

Favourite Lyric : 'It's hard to smile when you're as flat as a pancake'

14: Wolves - One Direction (29 plays) LAST YEARS PLACE - NONE

 Their new album came out a few months ago and the fact that some of the songs are already on my playlist really shows something. This one is so catchy and just nothing I'd expect from One Direction.

Favourite Lyric : 'I wish it wasn't true but the whole world's tryna get a piece of you'

13: New Romantics - Taylor Swift (30 plays) LAST YEARS PLACE - 4TH

Last summer I was obsessed with this (and the whole album really but this was my favourite). I just think it's so catchy and one I can dance around my room to!

Favourite Lyric : 'Please leave me stranded, it's so romantic'

12: Temporary Fix - One Direction (30 plays) LAST YEARS PLACE - NONE

Bit more 1D for you all! I love this song I just think it's so gritty and I could listen to it again and again! Plus Harry sounds amazing (as he always does).

Favourite Lyric : 'If you're feeling the weakness, well I told you baby that you can call me'

11: Life Support - Sam Smith (32 plays) LAST YEARS PLACE - 6TH

Natalie got me in to this too and although I don't listen to it much anymore I have to admit I still love it. I haven't really listened to the whole of Sam Smith's album, only the odd song but this is one of them and definitely my favourite of the few I've heard!

Favourite Lyric : 'Sick of waking up in darkness, when the sky is always painted blue'

10: Beautiful To Me - Olly Murs (32 plays) LAST YEARS PLACE - NONE

I started loving this song after the video for it came on and I went through a stage of listening to it quite a bit and I would get emotional every now and then whilst listening to it. Good old Olly.

Favourite Lyric : 'Every day's a battle and it tears her apart'

9: Adventure Of A Lifetime - Coldplay (33 plays) LAST YEARS PLACE - NONE

I love Coldplays new album so much and although I'm not sure if it's my favourite it appears to be the only one on the playlist! I do love this song however, I think it's such a feel good song!

Favourite Lyric : 'Everything you want's a dream away'

8: The English Summer - The Wombats (35 plays) LAST YEARS PLACE - NONE

More of The Wombats! I'm surprised that this is further up than the two before because I had liked The Wombats for a while before this album came out but this is such a good album and song!

Favourite Lyric : 'And there's an animal inside of me and he's feeding off every word you say'

7: Greek Tragedy - The Wombats (35 plays) LAST YEARS PLACE - NONE

Even though this isn't as far up on the list as another song by The Wombats I think it's my favourite. It's the first one I heard because my friend Melissa played it for me so I think it will always hold a special place in my heart!

Favourite Lyric : 'So free up the cheaper seats, here comes a Greek Tradgedy'

6: I Want To Write You A Song - One Direction (35 plays) LAST YEARS PLACE - NONE

I think this song is so beautiful and probably now one of my favourite One Direction songs! Harry wrote this which makes me wonder what's going on inside his head..

Favourite Lyric : 'Everything I need I get from you, giving back is all I wanna do'

5: Never Enough - One Direction (36 plays) LAST YEARS PLACE - NONE

I was about to say that I'm surprised that this is so far up but in reality I'm not. I love this song so much and I'm not afraid to admit it. It's so catchy and just makes me feel so happy. I think it's another 'Act My Age' kind of affair

Favourite Lyric : 'I don't need my heart you can break it, break it, break it'

4: Emoticons - The Wombats (38 plays) LAST YEARS PLACE - NONE

I must of gone through a stage of really loving this considering it's higher up than my all time favourite Wombats song! It is a good song however, I can't deny it that.

Favourite Lyric : 'You need to find a different boys heart to chew'

3: Olivia - One Direction (38 plays) LAST YEARS PLACE - NONE

Another One Direction song named after girl. When is it my turn? Although I'm not sure that 'Becky' or 'Rebecca' is a good name for a song really. I love this song and have done ever since I first heard it!

Favourite Lyric : 'I love you, I love you, I love, I love, I love Olivia'

2: Cheater - The Vamps (49 plays) LAST YEARS PLACE - NONE

This is another one where I saw the video and fell in love with the song straight away. The video also made me turn from a Brad girl in to a Connor girl. I listened to the song on repeat for weeks, no joke. I daren't listen to it again incase my obsession comes back.

Favourite Lyric : 'His dirty little secrets are banging on his bedroom floor'

1: Perfect - One Direction (50 plays) LAST YEARS PLACE -  NONE

I didn't realise I liked this song so much! I did listen to it for quite a long time after it first came out and I was so glad when i heard it live because the first time I went OTRA it wasn't even out yet! It's never a song I skip when I'm on shuffle and always a song I can dance around to!

Favourite Lyric : 'And if you like cameras flashing every time we go out, and if you're looking for someone to write your breakup songs about, baby I'm perfect'

So there you have it! This changes so much because as you can see sometimes there's hardy anything in it, sometimes songs have the exact same number of plays! Hope you've enjoyed reading this and maybe even found some new songs to love or seen some of your favourites!

Thanks For Reading!

Hello You Lovely Lot!

It's the end of January, although I'm not sure how it went so fast?! I'm now nineteen! So, I thought I would once again enlighten you all by telling you what's got me through the month!

Beauty / Skincare :

This month I have an absolute clear winner. I got this as a Christmas present but I have been obsessed with it ever since...

Too Faced Chocolate Bar Eyeshadow Palette 



This is one of the most amazing things I have ever used and possibly my new favourite eyeshadow palette (sorry Gwen Stefani). All of the colours are amazing even if I'm not brave enough to use all of them yet. It has the most amazing base shade called 'White Chocolate' and a gorgeous highlight called Champagne Truffle! I also love that all the shadows are made with 100% natural cocoa powder so they taste like icing sugar when you whirl a big fluffy brush through them!

Favourite Shades : White Chocolate, Milk Chocolate, Marzipan, Crème Brulee, Champagne Truffle

Music :

This month there hasn't really been an artist or an album that I have loved for the entire month, it's more been artists that I've got in to at the end of the month which is a shame but I thought I'd write about two in particular that in the last few days I've learnt to love again...

The Wombats

Hello You Lovely Lot!

So...we're at the end of 2015 (as if you didn't know already?) and it's been a mad year for me. I thought I would do a nice little post on all the cool stuff that happened to me!

31st December 2014 / 1st January 2015

Hello you lovely lot!

Can you believe that December is in to the 20's? ME NEITHER (if you can believe it, that doesn't apply to you..). So, with Christmas pretty much two days away now I thought I would let you all know some of the things I want so if you're last minute buying or someone has a birthday soon after (like me) you could get some ideas! Or if you're just nosy like me you'll want to know these kind of things. Bare in mind I know I will not get all of these things, these are just some things that I told my parents and friends I would like so they have ideas of what to get for me!

Headphones

I asked Dad for some specific headphones but he pretty much told me I wasn't getting them. I did then tell him I would buy them myself but it wouldn't surprise me if he's tried to find a similar pair and bought them for me! I really want just a good pair of over the ear headphones that I can put on when I'm on the bus! A good pair of ear-in ones wouldn't go a miss ether because I'm always buying rubbish ones so a good pair would probably save me a bit of money!

Pacco Rabbane - Olympéa Perfume

I've wanted this since Summer when a woman gave me a tester in Debenhams. Me and Mum instantly fell in love with it and with my One Direction perfume running out *collective sob* Christmas is the perfect time to ask for it! My flat mate Nicole always wears this so now I don't really associate it with Summer but with her, so after Christmas we'll smell the same. I always get perfume for Christmas because it takes me about a year to go through one, perfect timing!

Skinny Dip Phone Case

Ever since I got my iPhone I've needed a case for it but Dad has bought me shocking cases in the past so I thought I would just show him exactly the one I wanted. He told me he wouldn't buy it for me but when i told my friend Chloe I needed to get one she offered to buy me one for Christmas / My Birthday! So I'm pretty sure I'm getting one of these and I'm super excited about it! I've asked for one of the ones where the glitter floats up and down. You'd never guess I was turning 19 in January.

Urabn Decay - Naked Smoky Palette 

Ever since this came out I've been hankering after it. I can't do a smokey eye to save my life so I'm hoping that if I get this it will force me to try and do it more often. i saw that my friend Steph had it and so I opened it and it had the most beautiful silver colour in it that I think I could wear on top of any shadow just to give it a bit of sparkle! This is probably the present I'm most excited to get (if I do get it!). If I get it for Christmas this also means I'll have it in time to wear for my birthday meal with my friends (not saying that it will go well, but I can try).

Nars - Copacabana Highlighter 

I've heard so many raving reviews about this and I don't think I'll be getting it but it's a nice wish! I use Sleek highlighter at the minute and as lovely as it is, I'm looking for something for a bit more glowing? The Sleek highlighter just put a bit of a shimmer on my cheeks whereas all the reviews of this say that it does much more than that! I think Winter is really the time to go with the 'glowy' look, especially for me anyway. My skin gets a lot dryer in Winter and highlighter seems to give it back some kind of life!

CD's

I always ask for CD's for Christmas because then I can play them in my car. I know I haven't really driven my car much since I moved, only once or twice really. However, when I do drive it tends to be long ones, I drove to Sheffield to example. I've asked for 5SOS, Coldplay, Little Mix and obviously my ultimate babes, 1D. I know that having any of these CD's in my car will make my journeys much more enjoyable.

What have you asked for for Christmas?

Thanks For Reading!

Hello you lovely lot!

Only seven days of Blogmas left now, I'm sorry yesterdays was so late, I literally only remembered when I got in from a night out, hence the reason why it was so short. I was going to do a post about the fact I'm home now but you've heard all that now so I decided to do this.

You should know by now that I am a massive One Direction fan. I have been from the very start and have seen them many a time.

I saw them at the Take Me Home Tour in Nottingham...
