So a while ago my sister and my brother were obssesed with the band Avenged Sevenfold. Since they played their songs so often I grew to like them...a lot, even more than them. Most people don't like the singer's voice, but I don't really mind it. The think I like the most about their music is the lyrics. They sing exactly how I feel and what I'm thinking. One of my favorite songs is Lost, because of the lyrics. Some of the lyrics are:

"We've all been lost for most of this life
(Lost for most of this life)
Everywhere we turn more hatred surrounds us
And I know that most of us just ain't right
(Most of us just ain't right)
Following the wrong steps, being led by pride"

I mean isn't that just true. Most of us just aren't right. And everywhere we turn people judge us, judged everything we do, and sometimes even hate us for it. And we're all basically lost in the world trying to find our place in it. I find the lyrics in this song to be really deep and meaningful and that's why I like it.

One of my favorite songs ever is Nothing To Lose by Billy Talent. It's kind of a depressing song but I still like it. It's about a 17 year old who doesn't really have any friends and is bullied, and he figures he has nothing to lose, and nothing to gain, so he commits suicide. Some of the lyrics are:

"Kids just love to tease
Who'd know it put me underground at seventeen

There’s nothing to lose
When no one knows your name
There’s nothing to gain
But the days don’t seem to change"

I really recommend listening to this song, it's so good, but really sad. Bullying is just wrong and this is what could happen :(

One band I really really like is The Band Perry. I'm sure you've probaby heard of the song If I Die Young, and I'm sure you're probably like ew I don't really like that.. But! (I don't really like it either), but it's the other songs are much much much better in my opinion. One of my favorites is Independence. My favorite line of the song is:
"This is as close as I've ever been to leaving
Five blocks away, a stone's throw from home
But I'm as good as gone"
I really like it because it's like it doesn't matter how far away you are it's one step closer to where you want to be, and just because you're not far doesn't mean you're not independent! I like to think this will be me when I go out to college. But yeah, if you like country music then hopefully you'll like The Band Perry.

Rascal Flatts. I really like the Rascal Flatts, I think it's fun to sing along with. I don't think they're the best band ever, but I enjoy listening to them on the occasion. I like, Here Comes Goodbye, Close, What Hurts The Most and Summer Nights. I like Summer Nights because it really gets me pumped up for the summer, I think it's funny and fun to sing along with and blast on the stereo in the car. I like the other songs because they're more about something real, like Here Comes Goodbye is about a bad breakup and What Hurts The Most, is so sad and depressing but I still really like them. And I like how they're kind of country but they're kind of pop too. They're a mixture, and I enjoy it.

I have fallen in love with Hunter Hayes! He's so super cute and his voice is that of an angel. His most popular song which is probably my favorite is Wanted. It's sooo cute. I wish a guy would say that to me. Some of the lyrics are "I want to wrap you up, Wanna kiss your lips, I wanna make you feel wanted" and then it goes on kind of like that! It's soo cute, and his voice is amazing and I love country and it's a nice country sound. And I just love it. You should definatley look it up! I also like If You Told Me To. Those are my two favorite songs of his. I can't wait until he comes out with more albums and things! He's really good.

Jimi Hendrix. I really like Jimi Hendrix, he's pretty good, from what all I've heard from him. It's kind of amazing how someone just signed him and took him to London then figured out, oops. he can't sing or write lyrics. One would think they would've talked about that before-hand. But I guess it's a good think all of that happened for him to learn to sing and to write and all that stuff! But he is an amazing guitarist! I would really love to listen to more of his music, I'll have to look some up later to figure out what his sound is and see if I really like it!

So... Me and a couple of my friends are going to see a 3 Doors Down and Daughtry concert on November 23rd! I'm so excited. I'm mainly going to see 3 Doors Down, it's one of my all time favorite bands. The most recent album they've recorded is the Time Of My Life. Maybe they're touring and playing from this album? I'm not really sure. So I really need to start listening to this album just in case. The only song I really know on the album is Heaven. It's such and amzing song! It sounds so meaningful. Like he wrote the song from some event he experienced. I love the singers voice and how he sings, you can feel the lyrics, you can feel what he's meaning for you to feel, and I love the instruments. Everything about the song I just LOVE. I'm not a huge fan of Daughtry and I've seen them in concert before, but I don't mind going through Daughtry to see the amazing 3 Doors Down! I had to beg my mom for weeks for her to let me go, and to have her drive me and my friends to the Bell County Expo Center! I can't wait :)
