Songs on Repeat

I feel like we all have those songs that once we hear them, they are stuck with us- constantly in your brain, consuming all the musical beats in your head. Then, you add them to your Spotify playlist, download them to itunes, listen to them in the car and during your work out. Or, that is just me.

Here are some of those songs that just won't let me be:

Take Care- by Drake featuring Rihanna


I don't particularly like Drake or Rihanna, but this song has constantly been stuck in my head lately and has accompanied me almost daily on my bike rides to schools.

 When you’re ready, just say you’re ready
When all the baggage just ain’t as heavy
And the party's over, just don’t forget me
We’ll change the pace and we'll just go slow


This Isn't Everything You Are- by Snow Patrol


I love Snow Patrol, they are definitely one of my favorite bands. This is from one of their most recent albums and I just find it beautiful. The video is interesting as well despite the awkward close ups of the lead singer. It's one of my favorite belt-it-out-like-you're-auditioning-for-American-Idol-while-driving songs. You know- we all have those!

And in one little moment
It all implodes
But this isn’t everything you are

Breathe deeply in the silence

No sudden moves
This isn’t everything you are


Somebody That I Used To Know - Boyce Avenue (Gotye ft. Kimbra Cover)


I also love Boyce Avenue. They became pretty big on Youtube through their covers of popular songs. They now do a lot of original music, but continue to do covers of current popular songs. The lead singer's name is Alejandro and I am in love with his voice (and him a little bit ;) ) . I like the different tone and feel they give to their interpretation of the song. If you haven't heard of them before definitely go check out their Youtube channel or most of their music is on Spotify!

But you didn't have to cut me off
Make out like it never happened and that we were nothing
And I don't even need your love
But you treat me like a stranger and I feel so rough


CONFESSION: I did a music post because I took ZERO pictures of my day, outfits or food. I know you're disappointed in me blog, but hey, I could have just not posted at all? So, I still deserve a pat on the back for this. Give me credit for something, okay? OKAY?! okay.

Weekend is almost here- just one more class to get through in the AM! Goodnight internet, stay classy.
