I Hate My Life... Well I don't Hate this song

Hiya guys,

I am actually sticking to Music Friday this week even though I have an essay because something extremely exciting happened yesterday. My babes Beside the Bridge (who I wrote about a few weeks ago) released their second single and video after 2 years called I Hate My Life. Naturally I wanted to write about it being the person I am.


The intro of the song automatically made me think of the 1975! Now that is not a bad thing because it really gave me a vibe to start bopping my head. The whole ambiance and lighting of the video is pretty much perfect.

Now I wont lie, when I heard the title of the song, I assumed it was going to be one of those tacky pop songs complaining (a bit like Hate Your Guts by McBusted which I love btw.) Luckily I was treated to a beautiful melody with lyrics that are awesome. I love the little niggly things like the stuff we hate combined with those lyrics that indirectly talk about love but not in that soppy way that most artists use.

For me the tune and the way that the melody blends with the drum and bass beat is literally the most amazing thing ever and it is so sweet and soothing to my ears. Even though it isn't as hard as Weigh You Down, it still holds that rawness and the ability to capture your attention and retain it for the entire song.

I won't lie but it made me emotional, not because it is a sad song but because it draws me in so much and I became drawn to everything about it. I want to commend the boys on the song itself because I waited for so long for it and it didn't disappoint me.

Onto the video, I love the simplicity of it because even with just the instruments and the lighting, it hits you like a ton of bricks and is so bloody effective. There were no gimicks just the boys showing off their musical talents as well as the passion they have for their art! I wish more artists would work their way up and appreciate every single second as well as their fans. 

So to conclude, I definitely recommend it. Not because I am bias but I acted as if I didnt know the boys and listened to it from an outside perspective. I want to congratulate the boys and tell them that they can continue what they are doing because it is amazing.

They know I love them and the music (mainly because I was tweeting Rasmus up to the lead up) and they do inspire me as an amateur musician and music lover.

Once again boys, if you're reading this, thank you so much for being a rock and making me smile.

#So let me know in the comments what you all think

That's all for now my dears,
See you soon

Introducing me!

Hiya guys,  This is my first ever blog post, I was going to say of the year, but it is actually my first one ever! I think it is necessary to introduce myself to all you beautiful people.  My name is Sonal Lad and I am a below average 18 year old girl from England!  I started this blog because I have always been interesting in writing to a mass audience and I believe that this could be the starting point of trying to get into journalism. I also love the idea of being able to interact with people from all over the world on issues that are dear to my heart!  I think as time goes on, you will get to know me a lot more and hopefully I get to know all of you guys a lot better! That's all for now my dears, See you soon xx

What? I've actually finished university!

Hi my lil fairies, It's been a whirlwind few weeks, and probably months to be fair, but I've finally finished university - well I finished a few weeks ago and I've been trying to get back to normality. I managed to get a part time job and I know that, sooner or later, it'll dawn on me that I won't ever go back to university. I think the biggest thing for me is that I've pretty much spent all my life in education and it's been at the core of my life. As soon as I turned 3/4 I started primary school and then I was there until I went to high school where I spent 5 years until I went to college for two, which was then ended by 3 years at university - that's a long 18 years in some sort of education. It's crazy thinking about it now, that I was pretty much given a full blown schedule for most of my life and now I'm free... I can't say how much I've enjoyed these last three years. Even though they've been some of the toughest, they...

BUSTED IS BACK BITCHES!

Hiya Guys, This post should be for Friday but I cannot wait because another childhood dream has come true again. First McFly and James Bourne and Matt Willis became McBusted. NOW BUSTED IS BACK BY ITSELF. Okay to put my excitement into context, imagine a 6 year old girl rocking out to Thunderbirds are go in her living room with her little sister. Well that was me 12 years ago along with my sister who were some of the youngest busted fans. So imagine those young girls reactions when they found out that this band is coming back with all three members and touring (I did miss those eyebrows). Now, we have to turn a notch on the excitement down as the tour dates are during my exam period and I don't know if I will be able to go BUT to say that this is a huge nostalgic step is an understatement.  For everyone who complained that the McBusted stuff wasn't right for McFly and that McFly needs to come back alone (which I sort of agree because I am a huge McFly fan a...
