I'm such a loser at all of this!

Well, wow, I've been away for ages! After my quick update I was meant to come back and carry on but I have been sooooooo busy lately, so sorry! Also in my quick update I mentioned concerts and in November of this year I have another one coming up to see Ben Howard, who's like Ed Sheeran but a bit more indy, I have a lot of very jealous friends heheh! 

Top tracks right now: 
1. I won't give up - Jason Mraz; so ummm wow, such a good song, it's so thoughtful and calming yet very emotional at the same time. I've seen a lot of covers for this song, and a lot of them are beautiful and do a lot of justice for the song, until I found a cover by Cimorelli - a youtube band of 6 sisters who can harmonise so well - and I have to say that their cover I prefer to the original, sorry Jason! But it is truely amazing, I often have it on repeat, so here it is... 

2. Repeat (ft. Jessie J) - David Guetta; now this isn't a single off his album, but by god it should be! I think if more people heard it it would be HUUUUGE, it's such a good party song, but still has pretty meaningful lyrics. 

3. Love me (ft. Travie McCoy, Kat Krazy REMIX) - Stooshe; the original is ok, but the remix is sooooo much better, but If you're going to listen make sure you get the Kat Krazy remix! I kept hearing it on an advert in the UK for 4music and I'd have it stuck in my head all day. It's got a club/summer/fun/funky vibe, it's amazing, and the girls can sing, although there british accents are very clear in the song, which I know some people hate (over in the UK it would be considered quite a conmen accent) personally I LOVE it! 

4. Traveller's chant - Rizzle Kicks; OMG, perfect song for those rainy days when you're feeling dramatic and want a slow song! The lyrics are so so so meaningful to me, and I connect so well to the song, I think no matter how old I am I always connect to it, it's really worth a listen from this duo, they also do an acoustic in Paris, which is just as good if not better than the actual song! 

5. Cough syrup - Young the Giant; this song is so hard to describe, its a bit rocky but calm, but very very very catchy, I find myself humming it a lot. Glee do a decent cover which I found a couple of weeks ago that I liked but forgot about until I heard the original on Made In Chelsea last night. I have to say that I like a few songs by this band, they're really worth listening to!
