Music Monday.


First of all, I'd just like to say thank you for the wonderful feedback for the Back To School Series!  I will most certainly be going ahead with it, and I've had a look online at some little items to go into the prize!  (I have gained 2 followers since!)  As I said before, I'm already working on them, but it might be a few days before the first post goes up, if that's okay?

Anyhoo, on with the music!

Actually this is going to be a pretty short post, because I've been listening to Two Door Cinema Club's album for the past week online!  On Facebook they let us stream it for free (even when it wasn't released!), and now that it's out (today!), you can listen to it on Spotify!

They have some fantastic songs on the album, one of my favourites is 'Handshake'.  So, if you haven't already, please check them out on Spotify - the album is called 'Beacon'.

You will not be disappointed!

Music Monday!

I'm actually writing this on Sunday, but I've just scheduled it for this time, because right now, I'll be at school!  So, a lot of my posts will be scheduled from now on!

Here are my top 3 songs from last week!:D


We Could Be Amazing - Andy Grammer
Love this song!  I really like Andy's music, I just discovered him recently.  It's a really nice, relaxing song, that I can kind of relate to just now;)  Yeah, nuff said.



Fine By Me - Andy Grammer
I know, another song by Andy Grammer!  I've heard this so many times, but I never knew who the artist was!  This is such a fun singalong song, and the video is just too cute!



Taking Over Me - Lawson
Another fun love song!  Lawson have such a distinctive sound, and I think my mum loves this song more than I do!  I love their style as well:)


That's it for this week!  Feel free to recommend any songs for me to listen to!

Music Monday!

I've been so busy recently, it's hard to find time to blog!  I know you English peeps are still on holiday, while we're back at school here in Scotland!  Anyways, here are my 3 favourite songs of last week!


Sunset - Avalanche City
This is such a cute song!  One of my friends recommended it to me, and I've been listening to it ever since.  It's now my alarm song, because it's so happy and upbeat!



You Already Know - Bombay Bicycle Club
This is another really sweet one, great to listen to with rain in the background, and it's a really lovely peaceful song.



No Name - Ryan O'Shaughnessy
I fell in love with his music the first time I heard him on Britains Got Talent.  I cried, because I can relate to so much in this song.  He is such a talented songwriter, the way he uses words are magical, and his melodies are so sweet.


Well, that's it for today!  Expect a little DIY post tomorrow!  Don't forget to clickity-click what you want at the poll on the side, and remember to ask me a question for my 'Ask Nicola' feature - still no questions!:(

Music Monday!

You know the drill.  My top 3 favourite songs of last week!  Here they are, be sure to listen to them!


Call It What You Want - Foster The People
Ah! Looove this:)  This is my kind of style of music, and it's a great upbeat, fun track to listen to:)  I've been listening to this so much!


Only Love - Ben Howard
This is such a lovely song, and he has a lovely voice to go along with it.  Such a serene, calm song and really nice to listen to:)


Brokenhearted - Karmin
This is such a fun dance-y track!  One thats great to listen to with your girlfriends, and a feel-good song to cheer you up when you're down.  Grab the hairbrush, and get dancing!:D

Just a quick reminder, that the poll is over at the left side of this blog for what future posts can feature.  I would really appreciate it if you could click a few options, just to give me a few pointers and ideas on what you want to see in the blog!  Thanks!<3

Music Monday!

Ah.  I know.  So late!  I've been studying all day today:(  I start back at school next Wednesday, so I just want to get a bit ahead so I'm all organised for the year:)  Anyhoo, here are my top 3 favourite songs of last week!


Wings - Little Mix
I really love this song as it's upbeat and fun.  I've just started listening to Little Mix to be honest, but I'm glad they won the X Factor!:)


Middle of the Bed - Lucy Rose
I love Lucy Rose.  Not just because of her name, but also because of her style, her voice, and her instrumental talents!  This song is one of my favourites of hers.


Sleep Alone - Two Door Cinema Club
This is TDCC's new single, from their new album, Beacon (releasing next month).  Its got a great beat and is one to sing along to:)

I know these posts are quite short, but I have a couple of award posts coming up!:D

Music Monday!

I've decided to introduce a new feature every Monday where I show you my top 3 favourite songs of the previous week.  I love my music so I always listen to plenty of it!  Here are my favourites of last week:


Spectrum - Florence and the Machine (Calvin Harris Remix)
I love how upbeat this song is, and always makes me want to get up and dance (which is what I normally do!)



Express Yourself - Labrinth
Again, this is such an upbeat song!  It's fun, happy and just a feel good song!



Finale - Madeon
I'm not normally the keen on 'dubstep', but Madeon just makes it proper 'music', and since I love 
hip-hop dancing, this is one of my favourites to dance to!


Check out these songs and tell me what you think!
