Music (Revised)

CHILL OUT. I know that I wrote about music a little bit ago, but like most teenagers, my music taste changes every two days. So I will update you on my current music choices, because I know you really care.

Well, lets start with the basic music that I listen to. Some of my favorite songs include Little Hell- City and Colour, This Is All Now- Taking Back Sunday, Terrible Things- Mayday Parade, Go Do- Jonsi, Sail- AWOLNATION, Holocene- Bon Iver, and We Are Young- Fun. I literally could go on forever, but I'm tired, and I don't like typing.

Now, lets talk about favorite bands. You see, I have a weird thing with bands, and music in general. Once a song becomes popular and overplayed, I won't like it. So my choice of music isn't the typical persons. My favorite bands are, Fun (Who, of which, I am going to their concert next month), Bon Iver, Mayday Parade, Jonsi, City and Colour, Iron and Wine, The Script, and a lot other bands.

My thing with music, is I don't pick a certain kind. If you read my past article about this topic, you would know that I consider that like picking a favorite child. Yes, I do like bands that everyone else likes, but I also like bands no one has ever heard of. The only things I judge music on is the lyrics (I'll talk more about that in a second,) beat, and how I can relate to it.

It's time for a special talk about music. Right now, I am going to compare two song lyrics. One from City and Colour, and one from a popular song. "There's a degree of difficulty, dealing with me. From my haunting past comes a daunting task of living through memories. If we could hang a mirror on the bathroom wall, stare into the past, and forget it all." --Little Hell by City and Colour. Now, "Baby, Baby, Baby, oh. Baby, baby, baby no. Baby, baby, baby, baby, oh. I thought you'd always be mine." I think that this explains itself.

So, in case you haven't noticed, I have a different taste in music. I don't chose music by its popularity or the gender of the singer. I chose music by the meaning and how much I can relate to it. So, I'm going to bring this little post to an end. If you remember, a while back I talked about writing short stories, but then I never did. I'm going to start trying that again, but knowing me, I'll space again. But just know it's still on my mind. Well, salut.
