Love songs.

Valentine's Day is fast approaching. It's a time for love. Some people buy flowers, cards, chocolates, and heart shaped balloons to show their love. Others, write love songs.

There really isn't many songwriters and singers out there that haven't written a song about love. Of course you have your Taylor Swifts that only seem to know how to write about love; but you also have ssinf writers that are a little more discreet about it.  Nevertheless there's millions of love songs out there; and counting. 

Love. Love. Love. I do not have a favorite love song.  I think so many different songs can qualify as love songs, that choosing one proves difficult. Also, some seem so fake and cheesy they aren't very good. 

One thing I like about love songs though, is they are played year round. They aren't like Christmas songs that are played for 3 months out of the year. Songs about love are always on the radio. Love songs are also unique to the artist. I love that about them too. All singers have a different way of expressing and talking about love. 

Unique voices.

Every single person has a unique voice. Anyone can also be a good singer. It just takes learning your voice and shaping it into what you want it to be. 

My interest in music began when I was little. I don't know how I got into it. In kindergarten I remember being a part of the choir, and every year since I have been a part of music at school. 

By no means do I think I am an excellent singer, I'm okay, but my voice is very choral. I can sing pretty much any songs, but that pop, soloist voice, is not mine. Nonetheless, it is still unique; my own. 

Everyone's voice is unique; and to me, every voice has something envious about it. Some people have a rich & elegant voice, while others have a strong chest/belt voice and a range you could only dream of. Every. Single. Person. In my choir class has a beautiful voice with something I would love to have for mine. 

It you don't think you can sing to save your life, trust me, you can. There is probably something unique about your singing voice that makes it completely you. I'm glad everyone has a different flare to there voice because it sets us all apart in the best way possible🎶

Popular Song Suggestions.

1) There is this song I've been hearing on the radio that constantly gets stuck in my head. Its called "Say Something" by A Great Big World and Christina Aguilera. I've always liked Christina Aguilera's music. I don't know if I've ever heard any songs by A Great Big World. I might have, but I don't recognize the name. Nonetheless, it is a great song! If you havent heard it, you should look it up!(:

2) Now another really catch song I've been singing is "Royals" by Lorde. It's been a hit single for quite some time, but I still love it! I'm sure most of you have heard it, if not though check it out!

3) "The Monster" by Eminem and Rihanna. This song is super catchy. I really only know the parts by Rihanna, but I still think it's a good song. Although it may be a little iffy in content I like it!

4) I remember when "Good Feeling" came out. It was super popular, now the same singer, Avicii, has a song called "Wake Me Up" the first time I head it, I really liked the lyrics. One of them says "...all this time I was finding myself, and I didn't know I was lost." Something about that makes the song seem more real. I enjoy listening to it. Look it up!(:

Song Repeats.

Right around this time of year, Christmas songs are played to the max. Song, after song, after song, after song, those Christmas classics hit the radio. Don't get me wrong, I love Christmas songs! I can listen to them nonstop from the time they come on the radio, until  even a few days after Christmas. What I can't stand is the same version of a song playing over and over again. After a while songs just start to get old, and sometimes even annoying.
I've noticed that every year is different. There is always one song that does it for me. This year that song is Santa Clause is Coming To Town. I hear it everyday on my way to school everyday.  It honestly wouldn't be that bad if it was a different version, but it's not. While hearing that song 500 times each day, I haven't heard Christmas Shoes at all this Christmas Season. I'm not dissing that song, I just think the radio broadcasters should switch it up every once in a while.
This doesn't just apply to Christmas music. Songs on other radio stations do the same thing. Play the song again and again. It's like "Okay. We got it. This is a popular song. Now PLEASE play something else!" Sometimes this repeated song playing makes me hate a song.
Whats even worse is changing the radio station because you don't like a song, and the station you change it to is playing the exact same song. I swear that happens to me more times than not.

Music is amazing, in moderation. So switch it up a little bit(:

Straight No Chaser!

Recently I went and saw a Straight No Chaser concert! My very first concert! It was amazing!

For those of you who don't know, Straight No Chaser is an acappella music group of 10 guys. They have multiple albums out, and are starting to make a name for themselves. I had never heard of them before I went to the concert, but they were fantastic! Think Pitch Perfect , but in real life. I was surprised I had never heard of this group before!

The thing that amazes me, is the fact that they use no instruments. Only their voices. At times in songs it really seems as though they have some backup music; but there is none. There is sometimes even 10 part harmonies. I can't image the focus it would take to stay on your part while sounding good! I was really impressed. It was enjoyable.

If Straight No Chaser comes to your city, I highly recommend going to one of there concert! If you love singing. It is definitely your forte! 

Christmas Music!

It's Christmastime! The stores have been decorated for months now, people are running around crazy buying gifts for others and Christmas music has been on the radio since after Halloween.

I love Christmas Music! It always puts people into great moods and gets the holiday spirit into everyone! My dad, is not a large fan of Christmas time, but he is the first one I know listening to Christmas music!

Really, if you think about it, Christmas would not be Christmas without the music! Can you imagine going this Christmas Season without the classics such as...
Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer.
The Little Drummer Boy.
The 12 Days of Christmas.
Frosty the Snowman.
Santa Clause is Coming to Town.
Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas.
Silent Night.
Jingle Bells.
All I want for Christmas is you.
Winter Wonderland.
Jingle Bell Rock.
Let it snow.
The Grinch Who Stole Christmas.

The list could just keep going on and on. People continue to make more beautiful Christmas Music. Sometimes the songs CAN get old fast, only as long as you wait until December to start listening to them.

 I am fully into the Christmas spirit, and music brings me there!(:

Imagine Dragons

Okay. The first time I heard "The Time by Imagine dragons, I absolutely fell in love. It was an amazing song. Since then songs such as "Radioactive" and "Demons" have been played on the radio and become instant hits. I am among those who LOVE Imagine Dragons.

Right now my favorite song is "Demons". I don't really know why I like their songs, but I do! If you have no idea who or what I'm talking about then I recommend searching them!  On Pandora, I have a whole radio station devoted to Imagine Dragons.

Honestly the name sounds really odd to me. Like who names their group Imagine Dragons? I've grown to like it though. 

For me, Imagine Dragons was one of those groups you listen to before they become popular. Then all of your friends are like "ohmygoshhh. I loooove this song by Imagine Dragons!" Meanwhile you're standing there like "No kidding😑"

Long story short. If you haven't heard any Imagine Dragon songs, you should look some up! You are seriously missing out!
