30 Day Song Challenge - Day Seven.

A Song That Reminds You Of A Certain Event.



They sang this song at Reading and I got a tad excited because I like how she says "HERE" so when Paramore had finished and we were waiting for Blink to come on, in my merry state I just kept shouting "HERE" in her accent whilst Foster half attempted to make me be quiet. Fun times :)

30 Day Song Challenge - Day Six.

A Song That Reminds You Of Somewhere.



KAVOS BABY.
I realise this is probably everyone who went on holiday in 2010's holiday song but it was ridiculous how much it was played and how mental everyone went over it when it came on. And to quote Megan "It's so good though, especially that bit where it stops and you think it's all over BUT THEN IT STARTS AGAIN". Well she said something like that anyway, it was a while ago :)
And I know everyone hates other people's holiday in jokes but LEDZ ON TOUR.

30 Day Song Challenge - Day Five.

A Song That Reminds You Of Someone.



This would probably be a strong contender for favourite song but it kind of had to go here. It reminds me of Foster because I fist heard it because of him. Appazza Foals released this once and no one liked it so they released it again like a year later where suddenly lots of people loved it. Foster had loved it from the first time. I had no idea about it even when it came out the second time.
And, I don't really remember, but I think we may have been having a conversation about Foals and I hadn't heard any of their newer stuff so he linked me. And he got really into describing the song. "Beautiful" was a word that stands out. At the time it was pretty funny..he also had a man crush on Yannis but to be fair who can blame him :)
And to be fair the song on its own is amazing, how it starts off quiet and calm and then builds up (I realise a lot of songs do this but this does it extra well, especially when you think it's building and then it goes back down again) and the video has something about it, like the water with all the broken ice on it and how Yannis is so dark against the white..ok, I'm starting to sound like him but there you go.
And I don't think this whole thing happened too long before we started going out so it's just sort of always been there. Lovely stuff.

Easy A-vatar.

See what I did there? MEGA LOLZ.

So I'm going to do a little Film 2011 thing..because in my unemployed state I've been watching a LOT of films..

I have just watched Easy A. And I really really liked it. All the characters were good and a bit different and slightly eccentric. The storyline was slightly meh but the characters made it, the main character's parents I thought were especially funny (although I don't think I would cope so well if they were my 'rents :/ ). And thanks to this bit..


..and the fact the song was her ringtone throughout the film I now have it stuck in my head...and keep re-enacting her Sunday night..

AVATAR. I never saw it when it was in cinemas because I refused to see it unless it was in 3D and nobody would go with me. Bad times. But I have now watched it. And think it was pretty good. It looked amazing and I think that it is probably the only film that would be made better by 3D (not a massive fan of 3D generally, think it's pointless TBH)
Storyline was alright, kind of been done before in that the guy gets ordered to do something then falls in love with a girl and is now on her side (slightly reminds me of cheesy american teen movies where the guy is doing something for a bet) but that may be slightly too harsh, it was good and I liked the link thing they had with nature.
Basically if you havn't already watched it, it's worth watching, although at 3 hours pretty long..

30 Day Song Challenge - Day Four.

A Song That Makes You Sad.



This has made me realise I have far too many depressing songs. Damien Rice is good with the sad songs and this is one of my faves (if you can have a favourite song that depresses you??). I aslo like it because it's about sex but not like too rowdy with it..if that makes any sense? I don't know..I like it and it's sad. So there you go.

30 Day Song Challenge - Day Three.

A Song That Makes You Happy.



Mainly because I was sat on the bus the other day and it was sunny and this came on my ipod and did make me happy. I defy you to listen to it and be miserable.
And I know it's from the coke advert but the first time I heard it someone linked it to me so I didn't actually know this so we shall ignore the horrible commercialism of it all, ok? :)

30 Day Song Challenge - Day Two.

Your Least Favourite Song.



This was also difficult..everytime I thought I'd found a song I hated I listened to it and thought it was alright. But this is a fucking travesty. I didn't mind Jedward when they were on X Factor, they were amusing it was all good. And then they stuck around and murdered songs and advertised things. It's horrible. HORRIBLE.
