Yes, I've finally managed to find time to change the blog. Now that I've figured it out a little, and as I learn more about HTML codes (man, are they a minefield), I'll hopefully update this to look a lot better over the next few months.
As I was doing all this at 4am last night, I was randomly listening to songs on my iPod and found some that I wanted to share in this post.
First up is a song by a band I think I may have already mentioned, Young The Giant. I heard there song Cough Syrup on the Fright Night soundtrack, which I posted about here. If you haven't heard of them, well get on board.
This is called My Body and is so energetic and verrrrry catchy. Love it. Now, it's in my Vampire Diaries playlist so..well...it must of been played on there. *shrugs*
They're definitely getting more recognition but this is one of my favourite tracks of theirs.
Now for some oldies but goodies. I've just finished re-watching all four seasons of The OC. Cause I'm cool and there's nothing on TV. But whatever you say about that show, you cannot deny the music. It was amazing and featured my all time favourite Music Supervisor, Alexandra Patsavas.
Band Of Horses - The Ends Not Near
This song features on the 6th and final The OC soundtrack and was actually the title of the final episode of the series. I do love Band of Horses but only in small doses. I don't think I've ever been able to listen to one of their albums all the way through. Great band though!
I might just do a full on The OC music post next because there are a lot of songs I want to put up just from that show, so I'll leave those for next time.
Next up is a bit of Florence + The Machine. Gotta love Florence. I absolutely love Ceremonials and it's an album I come back to over and over again and find a new love for the songs I wasn't as into in the beginning. This is one of those cases. This one is called Bedroom Hymns and I found a completely new love for it when it was used on TV recently. I think it was used over an advertisement of upcoming programmes on one of the channels... Sky maybe or FX, I forget. This is a great song and far too short.
The final instalment for today is, of course, Paramore.
Yes, they finally released their first single off their self-titled album, which is out in April. The first listen of Now completely threw me but that was the same feeling I got with Renegade and Hello Cold World. It's so different to their older stuff but I love the direction this is going. Give it a couple of listens and be completely hooked!
Lost the battle, win the war
I'm bringing my sinking ship back to the shore
Starting over, head back in
There's a time and a place to die but this ain't it!
Love the lyrics too, as always. It's definitely one of those songs that the more you listen to it, the more you like it. This has seriously been on repeat but it's so annoying that you can't download it from itunes until February 18th or something... You have to acquire it other ways, I'm afraid. Hopefully we'll get the video soon, very much looking forward to that!
That's all for now. Hope you like the new look.
