And I’ll be playing your favorite song
Screwin’ up the words ‘til you sing along
When we roll it’s pedal down to the floor
I’mma ride with you until the wheels fall off

Stevie on the Radio - Pixie Lott

Stay away from me
I’ll be gone soon
It’s just so hard to let go once we’ve grabbed hold
It’s nothing that you’ve done
You’re not the only one
I’m just learning to be in twenty-three places

As I’m falling off the face of the earth
Crashing into bridges I burn
And I’m falling off the face of the earth
But I’ll be home soon

Falling Off The Face Of The Earth - Matt Wertz

This will always be one of the most beautifully heartbreaking songs to me. I never fail to get goosebumps when listening to it.



"I’m ready. I feel like it’s my responsibility to be the greatest I can be. If I start making terrible music, I don’t expect people to like me. If I’m making great music and there’s no reason for people to dislike me, that’s when it’s going to make me upset. People just need to take a chance and listen. If they don’t want to take a chance, then I don’t know. That’s going to be the biggest problem, to make them feel like it’s cool for them to like my music."

Justin Bieber, Complex Magazine

I’m planning to spend a lot of my hard-earned money on Big Time Rush’s summer tour.

It just feels right. I was saving up to buy a handbag, but that seems a bit pointless now. Music is such a huge part of my life, and seeing BTR live really evoked memories of what made me fall in love with music in the first place. I’ve been to more gigs over the years than I can remember, but for some reason BTR sparked something new in me.

One reason for my sudden love and desire to see them again, I think, comes from the fact that the guys and I are the same age. Seeing others similar to myself succeed highly makes me want to challenge and raise my own goals and ambitions.

Secondly, they really went above and beyond my expectations. I went alone to the show (although I did text obscene things to some people, haha), so I actually had the opportunity to just watch them perform. I rarely let myself do that as I always get caught up in the craziness, and it meant a lot. They had so much stage presence, and they genuinely looked like they were having the time of their lives up there. I felt like I was a teenager again, like nothing could go wrong. I didn’t notice anyone or anything else, my attention was completely focused on them and the music.

It was only after I got home that I realized how much I missed feeling so carefree. I’m such a self-conscious, self-deprecating type of person that it’s hard for me to feel like anything is ever truly okay. And as cheesy as it sounds, in that moment, I swear I was alive for the first time in a long time.

———————————

This post really wasn’t supposed to turn into what it is. But, I’m kind of glad it did. I don’t care if you hate Big Time Rush or think boybands are stupid. It’s less about that than the idea that music can do so much more than be listened to. It can change your perspective on things (not just pertaining to music), and it can make you feel emotions you thought were long dead.

I guess what I’m essentially getting at here is that I truly hope everyone gets to have an incredible experience like I did. You’ll know when it happens, because it just feels different yet absolutely perfect, like it was meant to be all along.

In a reminiscent mood… so here is a photo I took of my best friend with Foals when we met them in 2008. Classic shot with Yannis awkwardly smiling and wearing a jumper when it was 90 degrees out.

I want to jump Jack, my ginger husband.


This 1D album…

IS REALLY REALLY GOOD. But, I love how I’ve pretty much memorized every song after one listen, such predictable lyrics. Hahahaha.

Favorite songs besides WMYB are probably One Thing, I Want (Tom Fletcher wrote it, of course it’s a hit in my book!) and Everything About You. I always love the upbeat, cheesy tunes.

This is the kind of album that’s made for solo dance parties! :)

Pixie Lott - Love You to Death

You’re the reason I still hope,
you’re the reason I still choke.

Cos you know that I’ll always be there,

maybe that’s why you don’t care.
So, just take it all,
and watch how I fall.
Always thinking you’ll catch me,
you are killing me slowly.
I keep holding my breath,
cos I love you to death.
I love you to death.
I love you to death.

We Just Go On - Pixie Lott

And no one’s scared of flying,
we’re just scared of crashing down.
No one’s scared of falling,
we’re just scared to hit the ground.
Even if your heart gets broke,
you’re stronger than you’ll ever know.

When things go wrong,
we just go on.

We don’t need much, much of anything, no,
just the hope of what tomorrow brings.
