Lissie.
Realised it’s been a long time since I wrote anything…I honestly don’t know why I haven’t. I just got lazy? I’m not lazy. I don’t know.
ANYWAY.
THIS right HERE is stunning. I’m not gonna tell you what it is. You’ve probably seen it already if you’re an Ellie Goulding and/or Lissie fan. It’s just stunning. I watched it with my mouth open and covered in goose bumps. It’s just haunting and gorgeous. Their voices are so perfect together. I think anyone who was in the room when this was performed is truly a lucky bugger.
Also, more Lissie stuff :
Mystery Jets.
Probably in my Top 10 favourite bands of all time. I also think Flakes is one of the most gorgeous songs ever written. They are just a wonderful band and….THEY ARE BACK!

NEW SONGS.
She’s very good and you need to listen to her.
Seriously.
I was right about Flo and Ellie.
Just saying….

Far Too Honest.
As much as I love music, and as much as I hate writing personal shit down…I feel I need to let this out. NOW. Before I go to bed and not being able to sleep because this won’t go away. I will probably delete this later on. But I just need to let this out.
I hate the way that I am stupidly shy. If I could, I’d make a CD with every song that sums up how I feel and hand it to a person. This person doesn’t know. In fact, this person will never know because I freeze/don’t talk. If they saw this, they wouldn’t know that this was about them. Maybe it’s not about a person..it’s about the idea of them. Regardless of what it is, it’s actually getting to me in a way that I don’t want it to. So, these songs will sum it up because I don’t have it in me to admit this. Someone else can hah.
Alphabeat-Hole In My Heart. Recently I’ve paid attention to the lyrics and it just sums everything up. Every tiny and large detail. Seriously. I don’t like it, but I love this song. Buggerings!
The Drums- I Felt Stupid. If they do this live in 2 weeks time I think I will have a bit of a cry. It’s just beautiful.
Florence + The Machine- Drumming Song. No words really. I swear the Lungs album sums up my life most of the time.
The Smiths- I Want The One I Can’t Have. I stand by the fact that Morrissey has written a song to describe every feeling that exists. This song shows this.
Morrissey- I’m Throwing My Arms Around Paris. It’s so true. Every word sang here is utter truth. Fall for a country rather than a person. A place will not disappoint. People can. But only if you let them.
Morrissey- Let Me Kiss You. Again, shows why Morrissey is my hero. Thanks Moz!
Ellie Goulding- The Writer. I have no idea why…well I do, I just love Ellie. But…I have no idea. I don’t know. The words I guess.
La Roux- Quicksand. The whole album means a lot to me..for reasons I don’t ever wish to talk about, I cannot do it. I was going to put Cover My Eyes on here, but that’d mean listening to it for a few seconds and putting the link up. I cannot listen to that song, it kills me a wee bit. Quicksand though….blaaaaaaaady ‘ell.
Mystery Jets & Laura Marling- Young Love. So beautiful.
Mystery Jets- Two Doors Down. So apt…apart from being two doors down hah.
The Horrors- Mirrors Image. The “crippling shyness” line gets me every single time. Seriously.
Right I’m gonna leave it at that. I need to go to bed because apparently I’ve got shit to do tomorrow. I hope it doesn’t rain so I can go for a walk.

Kele Okereke.
I’m still wounded over Bloc Party being on a “hiatus.” I love Russell’s band, Pin Me Down. And now, Kele is set to put out a solo album SOON.
First single Tenderoni sounds a wee bit like Wearing My Rolex by Wiley. Still, I love Kele. Nothing can change that.

Ellie In Sydney!
I won’t lie, I got a bit emotional watching this. I wish I knew why. Maybe I’m sensitive, or just a bit pathetic. I dunno…I guess when you’ve loved a singer or band for such a long time (before they were signed). Then they get signed and become pretty big, you feel really proud of them. I suppose that’s what it is.
And she looks really happy too which is always lovely.

Bad Kidz.
This song by Marina And The Diamonds is my favourite. I’ve been listening to it over and over. I’m glad it’s not on the album because it’s so beautiful, and it’s one of those songs when you find it- you just want to keep it and have it close to you…or something like that. I’m really tired, does any of this make sense? No. Thought so. I’m watching cookery programmes. AGAIN.
Anyway Bad Kidz. just means a lot to me. Right now especially.
