The 1975

Okay hi. It is only the first week of school and this thought has been constantly running through my head today. So why not put it down on pen and paper right (I mean online).

So I don't have a lot of mainstream bands on my playlist. Just because I never listen to a lot of music in general. But have you ever categorised songs to where, when you are feeling sad, this song fits, happy this song fits, etc.

I THINK. The 1975 SURPASSES ALL THAT.

Sorry for shouting guys, but for real though. I have all versions of most of their songs. Their messages are definitely not godly or in anyway positive. It is mainly superficial. But man oh man. I listen to them when I am not too happy, when I am happy, when I am running.

Let me begin to tell you why I admire them so much. From my shallow appreciation of music, I just am in awe of how their songs have the same sound but it is different at the same time. The best part is they never fit any kind of mould. For instance, "Menswear" has the longest intro ever. And some songs are just so indie-laid-back, some are sad and somewhat mellow, while the others are so pop-rock, or even kind of screamo.

But mainly, I think his voice though. People say he can't sing. You know what they are entitled to their opinions as much as I am to mine. So. I need to say that, his voice is so, different, and somewhat comforting.

Call me a weirdo or a freak. But I think I have an eternal love for the 1975. Sorry. (not) Please, please someone get me passes to see them when they come to Dallas on Nov 25.. If you are reading this, Matt give me tickets?


That's all I have to say.

'you put the beautiful in life'

If someone sang this to me, I would fall in love.

Jk. (not really)

T-minus 10 days,

Samantha sent my brother an IM with an exploding face on skype earlier. I JUST SAW. scaryscary

She came back from camp yesterday & almost lost her voice. So cute. Anyways, here's an old song I found.
By the Kutless. Shuffled to this song in an old playlist and I find the lyrics never failing to inspire me as always. And the reason why I love Christian bands. Check out their NEW SINGLE!

// The Kutless, What faith can do.

Everybody falls sometimes
Gotta find the strength to rise
From the ashes
And make a new beginning

Anyone can feel the ache
You think it's more than you can take
But you're stronger
Stronger than you know

Don't you give up now
The sun will soon be shining
You gotta face the clouds
To find the silver lining

I've seen dreams that move the mountains
Hope that doesn't ever end
Even when the sky is falling
I've seen miracles just happen
Silent prayers get answered
Broken hearts become brand new
That's what faith can do

It doesn't matter what you've heard
Impossible is not a word
It's just a reason
For someone not to try

Everybody's scared to death
When they decide to take that step
Out on the water
It'll be alright

Life is so much more
Than what your eyes are seeing
You will find your way
If you keep believing

Overcome the odds
You don't have a chance
(That's what faith can do)
When the world says you can't
It'll tell you that you can

Even if you fall sometimes
You will have the strength to rise
