we are what we dont see we miss everything daydreaming









so im back and ive got a dreadful cold and its not great going on a train when you really wanna be tucked up in bed but i went first class so it was nice and quiet with not many people around so i just read my company magazine and stared out of the window and admired the fit guy who was sitting way to far away from me so i had to stretch to look at him which didnt look very inconspicuous!
so today i was watching an interview with nelly furtado and i realised how much of a fan i am of hers. i loved (still love) im like a bird. its such a beautiful song that i think everyone can relate to. maneater was, and still is, such a massive song. everyone knows it and i remember when it came out, me and my brother were obsessed with it! then theres all good things which was written with chris martin and is such a beautiful song. and then recently she did broken strings with james morrison which i think every girl was obsessed with! its all beautiful and sad and amazing and sounds like pure heaven.
nelly furtado does have an amazing addictive voice but she is also very beautiful (me, jealous? no way!)
to go with my dreadful cold im currently listening to my pink playlist which consists of who knew, i dont believe you and sober. and its on repeat, i wish my voice sounded like that but my throat is nowhere near as sore as hers sounds! i woke up this morning from a dream in which my throat was really sore and i couldnt get any water coz i didnt have any money so as soon as i woke up i went to get a glass of water even though my throat wasnt sore! very strange!
so its the end of the weekend but have a good night x

the walk before the run the breath before the kiss the fear before the flames, have you ever felt this way?


pink has got one of the sexiest voices on this fucking planet! i am so jealous! its all throaty and exactly how you want your voice to sound when you have a sour throat. its hard to explain but her new single i dont believe you is a very good example of what i love about her voice. the way her voice breaks, it just sounds so amazing when shes singing a song like who knew and sober. she talks about her heart breaking and her voice is so raw, you can hear the pain in her voice. i definately think she has one of the best voices in music. her and kings of leon should do a song together. imagine what that song would like! so beautiful. i wrote a post about her here. its not very good coz its like one of the first posts i ever wrote but i guess its interesting to read.
btw check out her album funhouse which has some beautiful lyrics and melodies.
a few other bands to check out:
  • the xx-they were supporting florence and what an amazing band! its a guy and girl singing and its all sort of whispery and beautiful. check out their remix of youve got the love.
  • plan b- pieces the chasing status remix. its so amazing and beautiful and totally impossible to explain! just trust me on this one!
  • just wanted to add two others to my list of artists i grew up with and that is nelly and maroon 5 oh and usher. i hate all of them now but there music just reminds me of good times so i will listen to it anyway!

ive got a maths exam tomorrow and on tuesday so i really shouldnt be blogging now but anyway wish me luck and sorry if i dont post for a while x

some sad news


i am leaving you. im just going to say it straight! i am leaving the wonderful blogging for a whole 6 days (me trying not to be melodramatic is like a fish surviving out of water ie its never gonna happen!) i am off to see my dad who lives in london and i am very excited. im going to the theatre, camden market and oxford street and possibly other shopping places. i love shopping and my dad is willing to take me. im quite excited as my dad is taking a few days off from work but a few days im just gonna go around london by myself which is just so cool. i remember last time i went and i just went to oxford street by myself then came back and let myself into my dads flat and i just felt so independent. thats something i am so grateful for. coz my mom hates shopping i have been shopping by myself for a long time. i got a debit card when i was twelve. thats the great thing about having divorced parents, you really have to be independent.
so abit of music to listen to:
  • okay you know my florence obsession. just check her out. legendary.
  • la rouxs song quicksand is my new obsession even though its quite old. la roux is just amazing and so talented.
  • lily allen is so talented and she has come back with an amazing album.
  • pink has just got the most gorgeous sexy voice. its amazing. im so desperate to have a voice like that. id do anything for it.
  • calvin harris has got some amazing songs out at the moment namely ready for the weekend
  • the streets-fit but you know it. just heard it on the radio and its so cool. the lyrics are so amazing. amazing is my new favourite word.
  • nelly furtado. shes just done that flo rida song jump which is decent but i love some of her older stuff like maneater.
  • run this town. im sure youve heard so much about this. its a monster! jay z, rihanna and kanye west. it cant be anything but amazing and they really dont disappoint with this killer of a tune!
  • check out the goo goo dolls who are just amazing. they have some new stuff but iris is still my favourite. just beautiful music.

so thats enough i think if you find any good music then tell me about it and btw i may be able to do my blog from london but im not sure so if not bye everyone. have an amazing week without me! x
