Eat That Up, It's Good For You - Two Door Cinema Club

Two Door Cinema Club is one of those bands that everyone should know about.  Never heard of them before?  Well now is the time. Here is one of my favorites from them...



I Don't Wanna Be - Gavin DeGraw

Such a solid song.  Main idea - He doesn't like the idea of media shaping people, they should shape themselves. Youth need to find their own identity, and not do what other are doing just for the sake of fitting in.

Sounds good to me!  Plus Gavin DeGraw is probably one of the sassiest males on Earth. I love it.

ps. One Tree Hill anyone? :)

Hesitate - Steve Moakler

This is a bold statement I'm about to make, but I'm gonna say it.  Steve Moakler is one of my top 3 favorite artists.  I can't tell you why, there is just something about his songs that I absolutely love. Hopefully this song backs me up on this...

Hesitate was the second song I heard by dear old (but not really) Steve.  The first song I heard was pretty good so I decided to listen to more of his songs and I chose this one and BAM. I was done for.

I will probably never see him in concert, but if he ever ventures to the dear old state of Utah you better believe I will be first in line.  Until that day happens...

And here's a cool acoustic version he did in one take..

MFEO pt. 1 and 2 - Jack's Mannequin

I saw Jack's Mannequin in concert along with The Fray in the summer of 2009.  It was my third concert (I think...) and to this day it is still one of my favorites.  Seriously so good.

MFEO (Made for Each Other) is one of my favorite songs by them.   The original track actually has two songs put into one. MFEO is part one and part two is called You Can Breathe. It's kind of long, but it's worth listening to the whole thing!

In My Veins - Andrew Belle

Well, I was getting ready to retire the laptop tonight when Chasing Cars ended, and what was after that song you ask? Another chill, relaxing, take that English I am done with you song.

Andrew Belle is fantastic, and so is this song, featuring the lovely Erin McCarley who is also fantastic.

Chasing Cars - Snow Patrol

So if you've never heard this song I don't know where you've been for the last six years, but welcome.  

It has been a long night. Yes, I know it is only 11 o'clock but English class kills me.  I hate writing papers more than anything in the entire world besides spiders and those websites that show a boring picture until something pops out and makes you pee your pants.  (I saw one today and I thought I was going to die.)

Anyway, after a long night of English homework this song starts playing on my iTunes.  It has never been as good as it is now, finally being done with everything and just sitting on my couch doing nothing. I hope you enjoy this song like I am now.

A Team - Ed Sheeran

Let me just start by saying Ed Sheeran is incredible. And I'm pretty sure that almost all of his songs will end up on this blog because all of his songs are amazing. 

But to start it off, this is his most popular song and the one that he is known for.  It's about a prostitute who gets beaten and is addicted to cocaine and in the end, ends up dying. Awful right?  The way he words the song though, you wouldn't normally initially be able to tell unless you know what it is about. Which I guess now, you do... Anyway, awesome song that has brought about more awareness to drug addictions and the terrible places that, unfortunately  people can end up.

Prepare yourself for more Ed Sheeran soon.
