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

Ear Piercing Debate

Hi my lil' fairies, It seems like all I ever seem to do is complain about what I've seen on my usual weekday morning television schedule, which normally includes Lorraine, This Morning and Loose Women! I can normally watch pretty much any segment and understand both perspectives, but, today, I watched a segment about a debate that has been talked about before and is just increasingly angering me each time. Would you let your toddler get their ears pierced? Here's the video from the last time it was debated: I know it's a question that raises controversy but my main issue was the argument from the woman who opposed it: getting your toddler's ears pierced is child abuse. EXCUSE ME?!? Here's my stance on this issue as a whole: I got my ears pierced when I was a small baba because it's pretty much normal in my culture and the same thing happened to my sister when she was little. I never found anything weird about it and, fast forward 20 ...

WWE! A New Era?

Hiya Guys, I really hope that this week's blog title is obvious to those of you who understand and will most likely read this post! I am a big WWE fan and, before you say 'oh it's fake', well I do know that but I'd like to also say that Marvel and DC and all those films are also fake. So, these last few weeks made history in WWE by having the Brand Split of RAW and Smackdown and making them both live.  Here is my overview of the Draft last week as well as the first week of the so-called 'new era.' Draft Day I will be honest and say that Draft Day was a huge disappointment in terms of the draft itself and the way it was organised. It seemed extremely lackluster and rushed in comparison to the other years and seemed to be very much focused on the Managers of each of the companies (Stephanie/ Mick Foley and Shane/ Daniel Bryan) instead of the superstars. However, when it comes to the picks itself, I was pleasantly surprised and happy. I think...
