A Beautiful Mess- Jason Mraz

You've got the best of both worlds
You're the kind of girl who can take down a man,
And lift him back up again
You are strong but you're needy,
Humble but you're greedy
And based on your body language,
And shoddy cursive I've been reading
Your style is quite selective,
though your mind is rather reckless
Well I guess it just suggests
that this is just what happiness is
Hey, what a beautiful mess this is
It's like picking up trash in dresses
Well it kind of hurts when the kind of words you write
Kind of turn themselves into knives
And don't mind my nerve you could call it fiction
But I like being submerged in your contradictions dear
'Cause here we are, here we are
Although you were biased I love your advice
Your comebacks they're quick
And probably have to do with your insecurities
There's no shame in being crazy,
Depending on how you take these
Words I'm paraphrasing this relationship we're staging
And what a beautiful mess, yes it is
It's like picking up trash in dresses
Well it kind of hurts when the kind of words you say
Kind of turn themselves into blades
And the kind and courteous is a life I've heard
But it's nice to say that we played in the dirt
Cause here, here we are, Here we are
Here we are
We're still here
What a beautiful mess, this is
It's like taking a guess when the only answer is "Yes"
Through, timeless words and priceless pictures We'll fly like birds not of this earth
And tides they turn and hearts disfigure
But that's no concern when we're wounded together
And we, tore our dresses and stained our shirts
But its nice today. Oh the way it was so worth it.

Nineteen Stars- Meg and Dia

Don't tell me.
You're done for.
I don't need to hear.
You're done for.
You can tell me what you are running from.
I need you.
More than you need you.
I can see you're really really running.
May I ask you where you gonna run to?
And you think you're really, really funny.
Well I don't think you're funny, as you do.
We all feel like we're breaking sometime.
I won't let you go tonight.
Stay awake.
Stay awake survive.
I've got nineteen stars that I.
Gave your name.
Tonight.
I wanna scream.
Wanna scream your name.
Star light, star bright, can save.
You're my wish tonight.
Don't tell me, it doesn't matter
I'll tell you.
What matters.
Bare feet in the summer.
Open windows at night.
You think that no one needs you.
You have nothing to see through.
Well I need you.
Don't I count?
Lets fight.
Show me anger.
Fierce fists clutching onto air
Show me anything
Just show me you care

Hug Me- Meg and Dia

You hold me close naked, I don't feel a thing
Your zippers are the cherry, but I don't feel anything
Your mind is stranded down now, I am closing you in my arms
and i prefer overweight than plastic any day
Hug me 'til you drug me, honey, hug me anyway
Your eyes are dusty, dirt porn magazines
You're lazy, selfish, but you were raised that way
It's a whore that here was bred
I'll take your pants, you take my hair, and let us dance
And cheers to happy and depressed
Hug me 'til you drug me, honey, hug me
Drug me 'til you love me, honey, love me any...Wait. Wait
I swear I've seen that face before
It's the very face I fell for in the human race.
I can't lie, I was brainwashed to be honest
In this brave new world that slowly passes by
I'm a girl learning to act as planned
I was programed to be Catholic but I ran
I changed my race, I changed my name
I prayed to them, "Please, what is brave"
I am loyal because I was simply raised that way
By the way, I never really liked your hands on me
Never liked your ideas of what's beautiful or real or truly holy
And I must say, you've thrown your apathy away
Grown back into your diapers, will you die first,
Before you admit the truth.

The Camper Velourium II: Backend Of Forever- Coheed and Cambria

Rocked silent in a soft lullaby
panic stirred me awakened by a ringing phone in time
where and when would I see her?
Crazy were the words that scribbled out your mouth
I stuttered replacing your face to those words
where and when would I kill her?
I'll wish on this, I'll wish with this
I, I'll wish... to the bitter end of my day
Well, where were you?
So you had your turn and you made it work
now I'm the laughing stock of your joke
as crazy as it may seem I cried for you when you
told me to date all of the things that made you end up in my life
and I'll believe anything I have no luck with girls
I overheard that you were unhappy too
misleading toss into a relationship that makes no sense
over and out Connecticut
but you had your back turned there as you faded away
to the end of my day I found out
you weren't worth what I thought of you
what I thought of you
write this down in your diary you abuse
can we make plans can I just get through to you
is this weird...do I scare her?
I'll wish on this, I'll wish with this
I, I'll wish... that you could share the love you'd shared with others, with me
This isn't love so forever let it go...forever let it burn
This isn't love there on the backend of forever
I wish I would never hurt again

Imogen Heap- Useless

I am a mirror, with no reflection
I am a razor, without my blade
I am the daylight, when the moon shines no
Who will want to make my sandcastle that's already made
I feel so useless, do you
Speak to an ear deaf to my voice
Look through your fear, still blind to my way
I reach to hold you, but I don't feel you there, do you
Even realize I'm here am I just wasting away?
No wasting away
Living, inside you play
My dying prayer, sealed in a scream
Unwelcome, and a conscious dream
I am your whore, without a name
I climb to fall, to begin again, to begin again
I climb to fall, suffer, hatred, deceit and pain
Anger, regret, loving in vain
I am an arrow, with no direction
My life your tarot, my picture your fate
I'm your becoming, so ill always be nothing
If i ever break away from you that day forth, you'll be living
My hate
Oh God help his fate
I'll watch you, watch you suffocate.

Part of, Cute Without The 'E'- Taking Back Sunday

Hoping for the best just hoping nothing happens
A thousand clever lines unread on clever napkins
I will never ask if you don't ever tell me
I know you well enough to know you never loved me.
Why can't I feel anything
from anyone other than you?
And all of this was all your fault.
I stay wrecked and jealous for this,
for this simple reason
I just need to keep you in mind
as something larger than life.

Are There Giants Too, In The Dance? - Meg and Dia

You best be quick you’ve got to run.
They’re coming at you with their guns.
They’re chasing after with their jail bars.
Ha ha.
Whoever thought we’d fall so far?
You’ve got to learn to act like God.
You rule the world, you give the word.
And if someone should fall behind,
just let their suffering slip your mind.
Are there Giants too in the dance?
’Cause this is about life and life isn’t about death.
Help me escape from lonely choirs.
Which only hollow voices sing.
I wonder who decides who wins, (The judges of mind, art, and skin).
In which we nod in agreement.
Are there Giants too in the dance?
’Cause this is about life and life isn’t about death.
 

Regina Spektor- I Want To Sing

 I want to sing to you my love
My only love and happiness
Don't be so blue so blue my love
Take off your shoes take off my dress
I want to sing to you my love
My only love and happiness
Don't be so blue so blue my love
This too shall pass this too shall pass
But tell me, what have I done to deserve you?
Must have done something cause that's how it works
Must have been kind to kittens and birds,
In a previous life must have thought happy thoughts...
'cause there, you were there right beside me 
Then somehow inside me while inside myself
Books on the shelf thoughts on the shelf
Hands to myself, i should definitely keep my hands to myself
Love is a dangerous pastime
Caught between madness and gladness of flight
Nothing is wrong and nothing is right
Falling asleep in your arms every night But Love's such a strange situation
Full of frustration and anger and fear
Everything's tears
Nobody hears
Nobody's here, and nobody hears...

Fighting For Nothing- Meg and Dia

When I was younger, I wish that I would have known better.
Better love makes a fat romance, that lasts for more than a shoe shine.
I’m older, took all the words of my mother, saying,
It could be worse, could be born with that disease, instead of catching it first.
So let’s go back, to the first time, that I met you, in your Chevy, with your hands stretched, and me crying, screaming, “Mercy. Mercy.”
But I know that, I was put here, to fight Vikings, in the cold war, with my arms out, in the front lines, singing, “Dare me. Dare me.”
But these things take time love.
These things take backbone.
And they’ll tell you what you want to hear ’cause they think it’s better. Better.
But you better know how to point out the liars.
You’ve got to weigh your wars make sure you’re not fighting for nothing. Nothing.
Are you fighting for nothing?
It feels like this world has been growing slowly upside down.
Maybe I should move to China, and straighten this mess out.
Maybe I’ll be a poet.
Watch all the sky for falling words.
And write about my grandma’s curtains, or the lady who put the Chinese buffet in her purse.
I’ve got my mouth.
It’s a weapon. It’s a bombshell. It’s a cannon. I’ve got my words.
I won’t give them mercy. Mercy. I’ve got my words. I hope they hurt you.
I hope they scar you. I hope they heal you.
I hope they cut you open, make you see you’ve been warring for all the wrong reasons.
Make you see that some things are worth bruising for.
Make you see that your name is your honor code.
Make you see that your hands you’re accounted for.
Pick and choose where your sweat and your blood will go.
Make you see your life’s not to be lived alone.
Run their spit through your hair, you’re worth nothing. Nothing.

Parts of Fame A (Mis) Fortune- Every Avenue

This is the way you ruined your view
You painted yourself to the back of the room
And now the walls start closing in
You buy your problems off a shelf and you realize then
Your problems are ugly and weak
Your words are so soft you can't even speak
These bones mean money to them
They'll sell themselves for fashion and fortune
Stuck in the place where you are
You made up your face, left you a star
See them draw the heat from your veins
It's such a cold feeling when your blood's been replaced
It's a bad taste to swallow your pride
The darkness in your chest tells a lot from your eyes
There's not a dollar that can crawl back inside
What's the cost of living if you've purchased your life?

Every Avenue- The Hell Back Home

If it all was a dream then it was worth the memories
If I make it out alive then know that this got the best of me
My knuckles are white but I can't get a grip
If this is the last song I write
I'll make all the words fit
From the roof of this house
I watch the sun go
D
O
W
N
On the town that I've cursed since I turned 16
A set of keys, I was California dreamin'
Drive, just drive
And I've been saying that I changed my ways
Disharmony seems to be my favorite word lately
And love had its hand up but I pushed it away
And I damn myself for the words I didn't say
And all the things I said I wouldn't do, I've done
When things get hard all I think to do is run
But all I want is something to call my own
I let my heart, woah, get the best of me this time

I lost myself and all that mattered most to me
But one thing doesn't make a man

I can't believe all the things that I've seen
I was moving so fast, forgot to take it all in
It's the sad times and tears, and being alone
That makes you think of the times that mattered most
And now it's 5 years later and I'm still all alone
My closest thing to a friend, quarter dime in a payphone
And now I'm feeling all the pain that I've caused
Behind this broke down piano in the back of this bar
So this is California
The sun still sets the exact same was as back home
On that rooftop, the sun still sets the same
The lies I told, the hearts I broke
The things I had, I never told
The tip of my tongue, fingertips
Translate every word I must have missed
Forgot to mention when I lived back home
And now I'm going back to the only thing I ever knew

Inside My Head.

So, you may have noticed that I have changed the title of my blog. I think doing lyrics of songs would be better, since I've been doing it for the past couple of posts. I like this idea better, and I have so much more fun reading lyrics and looking for pictures that go with the lyrics.
Also... I really like updating my blog... I think during the summer I'll keep updating this with all sorts of lyrics and such. I never knew blogging could be so much fun. I think this is my most favorite assignment that I have to do. Well I think that's all... I hope that reading my blogs are as much fun as when I create a post.
Ps: Thanks for following. :)

Lights- Second Go

How many times will the clock go around
How many times can my hands hit the ground
How many coffins before theres a crown
How far will I fall til the alarm sounds
How come you love me when I am ugly
Guess I can only hope
Give me a second go,
Dont let me go alone
You saw me at the worst,
You caught me falling first
All I wanted to know,
Give me a second go
No matter the weather theres never a break
Conquer a ladder then slip on a snake
Cried til my river turned into a lake
And Im wondering now before its too late
How come you save me when I am angry
Reasons Ill never know
Give me a second go,
Dont let me go alone
You saw me at the worst,
You caught me falling first
All I wanted to know,
Give me a second go
One to five Im half alive, six to nine Im out of line
Ten to twelve Im not myself, by the millionth time
I cry.

This is a cute song, It kind of reminds me of what girls think. I really don't know why...

Joe Brooks- Superman

 There are no words, to paint a picture of you girl
Your eyes, those curves, it's like you're from some other world
You walk my way, oh God it's so frustrating.

So why do I disappear when you come near,
It makes me feel so small,
Why do I blow my lines, most every time,
It's like I got no chance at all,

If I could be your superman,
I'd fly you to the stars and back again.
Cuz everytime you touched my hand,
You feel my powers runnin through your veins.
But I can only write this song,
And tell you that I'm not that strong.
Cuz I'm no superman, I hope you like me as I am.

It aint no lie, I have to tell you how I feel,
But each time, I try it gets a little more unreal,
You walk my way, oh God Its so frustating,

So why do I disappear when you come near,
It makes me feel so small,
If I could read your mind,
Girl would I find, any trace of me at all.

If I could be your superman,
I'd fly you to the stars and back again.
Cuz everytime you touched my hand,
You feel my powers runnin through your veins.
But I can only write this song,
And tell you that I'm not that strong.
 Cuz I'm no superman, I hope you like me as I am

I love this song it is so cute! Its a perfect song for guys and how shy they can be around the girls they like. I love how its staying that he'll do anything and using cute sayings like, "If I could be you superman, I'd fly you to the stars and back again." its cute. The whole thing is cute! Haha!

The Ready Set- Logistics

Every song is the same thing,
The authors of text books spelled this out in diamonds.
I'm aware of attraction, and everyone's dancing,
A different take on the old way.
So if you're in then you're in,
Feel it like a train wreck,
Come on take a step back.
I promise nothing's holding you out.
Dive deep into city scenes,
All of your friends and you are celebrities.
You shot monotony saying "oh we won't fake, no we won't break down",
But you called me out where the nights come cheap and the party is free.
You make it fact that there's nothing that you won't try once.
I've got a secret hidden right behind my ego and it grows
And it grows but your vanity won't set you free.
Ten million colors but you say that there's not enough.
Look up, are you listening? hands up, are you watching me intently?
Do what I want, do what I say, look the same, act the same way.
Keep it moving slow. could you fall in love tonight, if I asked you to real nice?
Once or twice, three times if I say it just like...
If you're a limo I will be your paparazzi,
If you're a diamond I will be your pop cliche,
If you're a love note I will be your yellow song bird
But poetry is past-tense tension played out yesterday instead we say...
When everyone else is alive, we are the kids that condescend
And draw out boundary lines, so I'll make an anthem tonight.
Together we can cut these chains and free up all the airwaves again.
Do what you want, do what you like to, live your life.
We are eagles in the sky, take flight.

goodnesss!

Like everyday this week all I've been listening to is Meg and Dia, its crazy! I like haven't even began to get sick of them either. I love their music. I like how they sing about different random things, like they don't have song that are alike. I like it. Haha! But really they are amazing and I love, love, love their music.
That was kind of just a random thought I just had. (:

Lights- Pretend

Once in a while i act like a child to feel like a kid again
It gets like a prison in the body i'm living in
Cause everone's watching and quick to start talking, i'm losing my innocence
Wish i were a little girl without the weight of the world

It would be nice to start over again
Before we were men
I'd give, i'd bend, let's play pretend

Remember the times we had soda for wine,
and we got by on gratitude
The worst they could do to you was check your attitude
Yeah when fights were for fun, we had water in guns,
and a place we could call our own
How we lost hold of home i guess i'll never know

And when it's the end,
Our lives will make sense
We'll love, we'll bend, let's play pretend

My sister had this on her blog I thought it went really well with this song... I don't know if she wrote it or found it... but I like it.

Who doesn't wish we could go back to childhood, when days that lasted as many as twenty do now? Before fear, money, economics, lusts, and peers controlled our every motive, and thought. We never thought some of our closest friends would get pregnant, drink alcohol, or do drugs. When we thought we'd be best friends forever, and have nothing come between us. When drama was not being able to have slumber parties, or not getting invited to birthdays. Now it's losing virginity, sex, who has the coolest car, and who has the most attractive boyfriend. Unfortunately, childhood was a promise never kept. Now that we've all grown up, the colors that once painted our world, that lifted our hopes, that made darkness colorful is now gone. It seems as if growing up is a never ending plague, and the older we get the worse it seems. I wish I would have known then what I do now, and would have taken my time to enjoy my innocent days, and take my time to grow up.

Lights- Perfect

Maybe I don't say all the right things
Maybe I stumble on my words
Maybe I laugh at all the wrong times
Maybe I mumble and I curse
The last thing I want is to let you down
Cause all that I want is to make you proud

I can't explain just why I'm acting this way
I can't control it, so I go with it
I'm just a girl, I won't be changing the world
And boy you know that, I'm not perfect
But I'm perfect for you

I know I dont make all the best moves
And I know sometimes I get weak
But I know I've got nothing to lose
Maybe that's what you love about me

The best I can do, is to be myself
And hope it's enough to make you proud

When your in the room, my head is clear
You make the world just disappear
So open up your eyes and see

Masterpiece- Meg and Dia

I am no masterpiece where innocence is painted green.
Isn't it strange to think that you created all of me?

Done by the hands of a broken artist.
You painted black where my naked heart is.
I finally know what wrong is.
Now I finally know what wrong is.
Carved like a stone with your hands still shaking.
On display through a soul still breaking.
Aren't you proud you're the one that made me?

You can't erase these.
Lines you can't save me.
You can't display me.
You know what dismay means.
I can't even try to.
Remember what I knew.
Before I became your.
Model to claim no.
I am no masterpiece where innocence is painted green.
Isn't it strange to think how you created all of me?

I grew tired.
You expired.
You finished me.
Now that I'm all that you planned.
What do you think?

Done by the hands of a broken artist.
You painted black where my naked heart is.
I finally know what wrong is.
Now I finally know that you bleed for nothing.
Carved like a stone with your hands still shaking.
On display through a soul still breaking.
Aren't you proud you're the one that made me?

The Postal Service- Such Great Heights

I am thinking it's a sign that the freckles
In our eyes are mirror images and when
We kiss they're perfectly aligned
And I have to speculate that God himself
Did make us into corresponding shapes like
Puzzle pieces from the clay
And true, it may seem like a stretch, but
Its thoughts like this that catch my troubled
Head when you're away when I am missing you to death
When you are out there on the road for
Several weeks of shows and when you scan
The radio, I hope this song will guide you home

They will see us waving from such great
Heights, 'come down now,' they'll say
But everything looks perfect from far away,
'come down now,' but we'll stay...

I tried my best to leave this all on your
Machine but the persistent beat it sounded
Thin upon listening
And that frankly will not fly. You will hear
The shrillest highs and lowest lows with
The windows down when this is guiding you home

Too Beautiful- He Is We

What kinda' man lays
his hands on the woman he loves
calls her "Angel"
and shows no remorse,
and the blood,
he covers her body in bruises and scars
you don't understand just how beautiful
you are

you are too beautiful
your heart, I want something more
Those shades of blue
on that face of yours
Hide the smile that beats in your chest

when he's done with her beating
He just stands a side
Wipes the sweat from his brow
and yells over her cries


She stands in the mirror,
She looks less alive.
She lifts up her shirt
to see she has five
Branded fingers on her side.
She's feeling it all now
But she doesn't cry
She doesn't cry

I don't know why...

But I really like my sisters blog... I think I
look up to it... and kind of wish that mine is
as cool as her's. Haha
Please.... check it out.

Cady Groves

Funny story... at first when I heard Cady Groves, I hated her. I just thought, 'what the heck?' but now... I love listening to her... she has a really good song that just came out, One In The Same, which is on her new EP- Life Of a Pirate. She has a really good voice and has actually done duets with, Plugin Stereo, The Ready Set and Never Shout Never. Those songs are... Oh Darling and Blizzard Of '89 which ft. Christofer Drew of Never Shout Never.
Check her out!

Monster.

His little whispers.
Love Me. Love Me.
That's all I ask for.
Love Me. Love Me.
He battered his tiny fists to feel something.
Wondered what it's like to touch and feel something.
Monster.
How should I feel?
Creatures lie here.Looking through the window...
That Night He Caged Her.Bruised And Broke Her.
He struggled closer.Then he stole her.
Violet wrists and then her ankles.
Silent Pain.
Then he slowly saw their nightmares were his dreams.
Monster.
How should I feel?
Creatures lie here.Looking through the windows.
I will.
Hear their voices.
I'm a glass child.I am Hannah's regrets.
Monster
How should I feel?
Turn the sheets down.
Murder ears with pillow lace.
There's bath tubs.Full of glow flies.
Bathe in kerosene.
Their words tattooed in his veins, yeah.

This song used to be a song that I would just listen to and not think anything of...
So tonight I looked up the lyrics, which is just what you read. I love these lyrics, they aren't like other lyrics. I guess that this song was inspired by the book, East of Eden by John Steinbeck. Good song. You should really listen to it.
Also... listen to this.

The AP Tour

The AP Tour was last night in Salt Lake, and I have to tell you it was a great start to my spring break. The bands who played were, The Summer Set, Every Avenue, The Cab, Hey Monday, and Never Shout Never. Even though we had to sorta wait in the snow and rain, it was still worth it. This concert reminded me of how much I love the music scene, and how much fun concerts are. If you love any of these bands and didn't go.. you really missed out. Haha! 

ahhhh!

So I am soooooooo excited! I get to go see Never Shout Never on Monday!! My mom actually told me that they were sold out and I was so bummed... but yeah she was going to wait and tell us on easter, but I'm glad she didn't. Gahh! I'm super excited, like a lot of my favorite bands are going to be there like, Hey Monday, Every Avenue, Never Shout Never (of course), The Summer Set, and The Cab! This is going to be an amazing concert! Haha!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wXnPu-PGljM

wouldn't it be cool...

If every minuet of our lives music played? I think it would be super cool and like really interesting to see what song played during your moments in life. This all came into my head when I pushed play on my iPod and Lady Gaga started playing.

Idea... I think for now on every post I do I'm going to have a song of the day haha!

Song Of The Day: Starstruck, by Lady Gaga
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tz8P-kWvGlc

Death Cab For Cutie- Summer Skin

Squeaky swings and tall grass
The longest shadows ever cast
The water's warm and children swim
And we frolicked about in our summer skin

I don't recall a single care
Just greenery and humid air
Then Labor day came and went
And we shed what was left of our summer skin

On the night you left I came over
And we peeled the freckles from our shoulders
Our brand new coats so flushed and pink
And I knew your heart I couldn't win
Cause the seasons change was a conduit
And we left our love in our summer skin

Summer! Goodness I can't wait! I was just reading these lyrics and it made me so excited for summer!
This song is actually really good, I love Death Cab, listen to this song!

The Scientist lyric- The Ready Set

I'm just like your friends.
I sit solid until the timing's bad and then I take my bow and leave.
I'm so loyal, I'm so loyal, trust me please.
See, nothing's new when you've got no limits
And you can test your keyboard's strength
To talk you through the rough nights,
The dead ends, the fist fights, and all your broken teeth.
See, every model has a weakness and every child has a spot for toys,
So if we take the two and we mix them through she'll have the dead-on logic for boys.
And I'm trying to keep you in line,
But the city's saying "oh darling, you're mine".
And your smile says you've got it together
But your eyes are telling me it's not true.
So every weekend when you're living singing "life is short"
You better think again 'cause growing up's the longest haul,
I don't think that I will.
So when the lights go out you better crack the door,
Everyone's waiting singing "ay bay bay! young love is fleeting".
And I'm trying to keep you in line,
But the city's saying "oh darling you're mine".
And you're words say you've got it together now,
But you think that love is just a pretty lie.
So go ahead and make your move and shake it up and make it feel like love.
And when he's telling you you're pretty,
So so pretty keep his eyes above.
Apologies and empty pickup lines that turn on dimes,
He's got so much. baby don't let it work,
You know it never never works, except what he said was...

This song has been my favorite for like ever. I love these lyrics, it has a lot of strong lines, also I like how it talks about how guys are, and how girls shouldn't fall for those kinds of guys.

Ok. Watch this video. I may be over reacting but I saw this on a commercial on Nickelodeon and thought like what the heck!! This music video is about her kissing this guy and having everything feel alright, and its like your how old?!!!! Like I would understand if she was like older but she's like 15 or 16 years old and doesn't even know what love is. Its stupid and like look at what she's wearing... she just looks stupid. Haha! Another dumb thing is, I bet she can't even sing that well. I hate how all these Disney and Nickelodeon stars are becoming singers. They need to find some real talent!! GOSH!!! Hahahaaha.

Make A Decision- The Early November lyrics.

'The world will slowly see that life can be so easy.
without your fancy plates we never eat off.
stop me when I've said enough.
we create our own prison.
we're locking people up for needing money.'

I've never heard this song before, but I was looking at these lyrics one day and thought that its funny how music relates so much to life and how much people write songs about life experiences. Artists write about love, hate, world happenings, sex, drugs and so much more. I think its so crazy that the best song can have the worst lyrics or the worst song have the best lyrics. I think lyrics are what really make genuine song that a lot of people would like. 

Lady Gaga

Ok, so Lady Gaga... I actually really like her music. Her new song Telephone ft. Beyonce is a really good song. I really like the beginning of it but I think Beyonce kind of ruins it with like the whole not mellow tone hahaha. But yeah other than that, its a really good song. So are like a ton of her other songs. :)

Stormie Rae

This is someone who I found on youtube, and wow, she's pretty amazing. After hearing her songs I would always want to listen them more. She's really good so please, check out her youtube channel, or at least this video... (:

Those are some amazing bands.

Band Of Horses

So, I heard of this band called, Band Of Horses, and I have come to really like their style of music. They are an Indie Rock Band with amazing talent. I first heard their song, "The Funeral" on My Life as Liz, and thought of how great of a song it was. Band Of Horses are going on tour in March but they are unfortunately not coming to Utah... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ao8FIszjKZg  here's the link to the song "The Funeral".
 

Lately.......

This has been my playlist that I've been listening to. It sucks because I had to send my iPod back and its been like 3 weeks and I'm dying without it! Anyways I've been really sick too, I had to go to the ER this morning around 3:30 a.m because I've been having really bad abdominal pain and I've been to doctors and they've ran tests and everything and they have all came back normal. So finally, after being in the ER for a few hours they were able to see what was causing all of my stomach pain. Although, I'm still in a lot if pain and hopefully I'll be back to normal in a few days. Uhh all the homework. :/

mmmmmmusic.

What kind of music do you guys like? Like who are your favorite bands to listen to when you are either sad, mad, tired, happy or just whatever... What kinds of music puts you in a good mood and what kinds of music puts you in a bad mood? Ha-ha well I'm going to answer that one... The music that usually gets me in a bad mood or that I just reeaallllyyy can't stand is Doctor Dre and my sister ALWAYS listens to it and every time I just want to take it out and through it out the window, but I can't, because it's not her CD. Dang. So tell me, what do you guys like to listen to and what do you not like listening to?

American Idol&&Never Shout Never

American Idol is back on, I'm really excited for this season, I haven't watched the last to seasons of it, so I'm excited to watch it! Haha so whats with the whole "Pants on the ground, looking like a fool with yo' pants on the ground!" everyone is talking about it. I know that it was off American Idol but it's kinda stupid. Haha I don't know. Anyways this season looks like a good one. So I'm listening to Never Shout Never, wishing I could go to his concert in St. George on Jan. 22 :( oh well.
PS: his new CD "What Is Love" comes out Jan. 26th. (which I'm super duper excited about!) You can pre-order it if you are crazy obsessed with him like I am, (just kidding) on Amazon http://www.amazon.com/What-Love-Never-Shout/dp/B002ZFEQ8U/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&s=music&qid=1262629877&sr=1-3
it's his first full length CD and I think it's going to be amazing! :) Andd... if you pre-order off of iTunes you get like the, "What Is Love" music video, two bonus songs and a digital booklet, Which I guess is pretty cool! If you need more info, here's his Myspace page: http://www.myspace.com/nevershoutnever

I've come to love these two band very much!

He Is We: When I first heard them, I was on their pure volume website and I instantly fell in love with their music. The amazing voice of Rachel mixed with the melodies and chords of Trevor’s amazing guitar talent, makes He Is We not your average band. He Is We is a, Indie/ Acoustic/ Lyrical sounding band, even if your not into the whole acoustic stuff, I'm sure you will love them! Here is their Pure Volume website for music listening and also they have some free songs available to download.http://www.purevolume.com/HEISWE

The Icarus Account: The Icarus Account is a band I found on Myspace, and wasn't really to sure if I was going to like them, but when I downloaded their CD I was just amazed at how much I liked them! The Icarus Account is made up of two twin brothers, Ty and Trey Turner, who sing absolutely amazing together. Check them out, maybe you'll fall in love with their music like I did. :) http://www.myspace.com/theicarusaccount
