3 Doors Down Concert

So, I just got back from the 3 Doors Down and Daughtry concert! It was soooo amazing!! Well at least 3 Doors Down was. Daughtry...well let's be honest, Daughtry SUCKED! Daughtry's voice was so out of tune and it was just bad. But 3 Doors Down was so great. The singer was amazing and nailed most of every song they sang. They sang, When I'm Gone, Loser, Citizen/Soldier, Here Without You, Away From the Sun, Time of my Life, Better Life, Kryptonite, Days in the Life, Road That I'm On, It's Not My Time, and 3 songs that are coming up on their next album. They also sang a cover of Symphony of Destruction by Megadeath which was pretty awesome! The music was awesome, the crowd was happy and into the music. All around it was an amazing concert. I already wish I could go back!

Maroon 5

I think Maroon 5 is okay. My sister was just talking about them and told me that I should blog about them, so here I am. I like a few of Maroon 5's songs like She Will Be Loved, and Misery is pretty good too, and Payphone is alright, it's kind of over rated and over played as well. But my favorite song of Maroon 5 is She Will Be Loved, everything about it makes it a good song. I think the lyrics are really good, the instrumentals are really good and it's a song I LOVE to song along to, even if I'm not too great of a singer. My favorite part of the song is when he says:

"Tap on my window knock on my door

I want to make you feel beautiful

I know I tend to get so insecure

It doesn't matter anymore"

I think that line is sooooo cute! I want to have a relationship where my boyfriend would do that. I recommend giving this song a listen if you've never heard it before!

White Album

The Beatles White Album was great! It was kind of long but still it had some really good songs like Blackbird, I Will, and Don't Pass Me By, those were my favorite. Some that I thought could just be left off the album entirely were, Wild Honey Pie, Revolution 9, and Why Don't We Do It In The Road. I thought those were just stupid. George Harrison is actually writer. I think Ringo wrote Don't Pass Me By which I thought was amazing. So, the Beatles have succeded to amaze me once again. I don't think it's possible not to love the Beatles, they're so amazing in every way possible. They're so good at the instruments they play, as well as other instruments and their song writing is legendary. That's why I think they're the best band to ever walk the face of this earth.

So, Taylor Swift, I kind of like her, but again I kind of don't. Some of her songs I love, then others, not so much. A few songs I really like are, Mean, Mine, Speak Now, and Sparks Fly. One song I really don't like, and that I find extremely annoying is, We Are Never Getting Back Together, I think that's what it's called. I hate it, all she does is repeat herself over and over again in a really high pitched annoying voice. But for example I really like Mean, because of the lyrics. It's basically about her being bullied and how she copes with it, because all that person is, is mean, and the person has no control over your emotions. I think the song is really good and hopefully speaks to all the people being bullied, her song has a really good message and is pretty catchy too. Some of the lyrics of Mean are:

"You, pickin' on the weaker man

Well, you can take me down with just one single blow
But you don't know what you don't know

Someday I'll be living in a big old city
And all you're ever gonna be is mean
Someday I'll be big enough so you can't hit me
And all you're ever gonna be is mean"

I think this song is really good and is very meaningful and I think is pretty powerful too.

Another really awesome band is, Pentatonix, which is an acapella group. There's only five people in the band, there's four guys and one girl. Pentatonix won the Sing Off which was an acapella competition, so yeah they're pretty good. My favorite song I've heard them sing is Your Love Is My Drug. I just love it! They're voices are amazing and they're perfectly in sync and they do really good harmonies and it really sounds like there are instrumentals, but of course, there's not. And it's really fun to sing with, which is something I really enjoy! I'm pretty sure they sing mostly covers but I think they have a few originals on Itunes. You definitely should check them out, they're really really good.

One band my brother used to blast in his stereo constatly is Lamb Of God, at first I hated them with a passion becuase I didn't like the screaming. But I started to like screamo music a little more than I used to, so I tried and gave Lamb Of God a second chance. In doing so, I found a really amazing song, or what I find to be amazing, I have yet to find someone else who actually likes this song too. I'm honestly not sure at all why I like it so much. I think I like screamo because, like when I'm mad I can't just go around and scream at everything so I think being able to listen to screamo kind of takes out what I'm feeling, even though I usually can't understand a word they're saying. So, the amazing song... it's called Omerta by Lamb Of God. My favorite part is actually the beginning, which most people hate, but I like it. The beginning lyrics are:

"Whoever appeals to the law against his fellow man
Is either a fool or a coward, whoever cannot take care of
Himself without that law is both, for a wounded man shall
Say to his assailant, "If I live I will kill you, if I die you are forgiven"
Such is the rule of honor"

And then after those lyrics it goes to an awesome guitar part. Sometimes it just gives me the chills it sounds so cool.  I recommend listening to this.... of course at your own will if you really hate screamo so much so that you can't listen to it then this isn't the song for you. But please give it a try :)

If I Take Your Heart

I'm sorry I wasn't able to go to that record store with the live music. I went out of town first thing after school today :( I really wish I could have gone but here's a good song!


So, there's this super cute song called Take My Heart by Soko, and my sister's boyfriend sent it to her for Valentine's Day and it was soooooooooo cute! It's about a couple who are in LOVE and they're giving eachother their hearts. Some of the really cute lyrics are:

"You can take my heart for a walk on the beach
You can take my heart for a little trip
You can take my heart very close to your heart
You can take my heart forever if you like"

Isn't that just adorable?! I wish I had something like that. But yeah the lyrics are adorable by the vocals and instrumentals kind of, well, suck. But it's sooo cute!
