“why did you let it slip, BRING YA LOVE BACK TO ME, you put ya heart back in it, say it like you mean it, that’s how it used to be” ~ Stooshe – Slip

Apologies that it has been so long since I have been on here.

With lots of uni work and various work placements, I have hardly had a chance to come on here and I have missed my blogging!!

Now let’s get back to why I’m writing this post.

It is time for…SONG OF THE WEEK!

Now I was lucky enough to see these girls sing this live at the Key 103 Live launch event in MediaCity, Manchester a couple of months ago; that would make it the second time I have seen them live and they are incredible!

The song I have chosen from them has really got stuck in my head and probably driven my friends crazy with the amount of times I have played it over and over again!

This week’s song of the week is Stooshe‘s Slip.

“well baby i surrender, to the strawberry ice cream, never ever end of all this love, well i didn’t mean to do it, BUT THERE’S NO ESCAPING YOUR LOVE…” ~ Counting Crows – Accidentally in Love

Love.

It is such a big thing to hear someone say those classic three words you hear all the time in romantic films: “I love you.” You dream of someone special to you in your life to say those magic words to you.

There are different categories for love in songwriting: being in love, being in love with someone who doesn’t know you exist, falling out of love or heartache and moving on.

I will have to divide it up into a few posts so I don’t go on too much about one and not the others.

This post is going to be about being in love with someone.

It is one of the most amazing feelings in the world to be in love. To feel wanted by someone who loves you just  as much as you love them. For me personally, when I feel good about something I write a song about it so I can get some of my feelings expressed.

One of my favourite songs about being in love has to be Katy Perry – Teenage Dream.

“shot me out of the sky, YOU’RE MY KRYPTONITE, you keep making me weak, yeah frozen and can’t breathe.” ~ One Direction – One Thing

It is that time of the week again.  Yes it is song of the week.

Now this band are guilty pleasure of mine. Rising from their fame from the reality TV show, The X Factor, and have now become the biggest boyband in the world despite them only being formed at the judges’ houses.

Only coming third in the competition, it’s a surprise to see how far they have come from their beginnings as schoolboys wanting to pursue a career as a solo artist.

This week’s song of the week is: One Direction – One Thing.

“RAISE YOUR VOICE, sticks and stones may break my bones, i’m talking loud, not saying much…” ~ David Guetta feat. Sia – Titanium

As I know that I don’t have a gigantic number of songwriting inspirations, I thought I would alternate this with songs I can’t get out of my head of the week.

I listen to a range of different music as I have said before. On my Spotify account, I have three playlists: Christmas, Dancey and Sad.

Obviously near Christmas, I listen to my Christmas one. My sad one is for when I want to chill out or not in a happy mood. My dancey one is for every other time that I want music; whether it be for whilst I’m getting ready for a night out, exercising, doing work or just writing a blog post like I am now.

The song that I can’t get out my head this week is: David Guetta featuring Sia – Titanium.
