song 38

 Song 38

Hello! Welcome back to song reviews! So who likes acoustic songs? Today's song is the acoustic version of My Heroine by Silverstein, I love acoustic versions of songs. This one especially is really cool, I love how soft and slow the melody is. You can hear the singing really clearly, it's just really great. I find acoustic songs really intimate and special, it's like you can hear the emotion and the lyrical work on a whole different level. In this version of the song the screaming parts are taken out, and replaced with regular singing. I can almost picture the finger work on the acoustic guitar, I just really find this beautiful. (for you dirty minded people, yeah I said finger work lol get it out of your systems) Anyway I hope you check this out, it's really beautiful and I hope you consider listening to more acoustic songs :)

I know it's a short one today, but that's really all I had to say about this one. I'm doing a little better, I hope to write more reviews this week. I just really love talking about music, and sharing that love with other people :)

song 37

 Song 37

Song 37 is another Mayday Parade song, because I love the band, and I'm always finding songs I like by them. This song I'm reviewing by them is called Save Your Heart! I just started listening to this song, but I love it! It's amazing, and very meaningful. The part of the chorus that I love is start of it, "save your heart for someone who's worth dying for." Like that was deep, if you are lucky enough to find someone worth dying for you know it's real love. ( I feel like I have that kind of love) Anyway, right at the intro of the song you're hit with a drum and guitar combo. It's really cool, and the melody is slow but so full of emotion. Here's the second part of the chorus "Don't give it away, torn apart never getting what you've been crying for." Song writers are so amazing, part of me kind of wants to try writing lyrics again but I don't know. This band are also really great singers, which I've mentioned before, especially the way they harmonize. And that's all I have to say about this one :)

Today's song is Love Like Winter by AFI! So this song is very unique, it makes me want music like this back. There's this cool cut up thing that's going on with the guitar in the chorus. (my boyfriend's words :) The vocals are really interesting too, I love the tone of the voices and the way these people sing pulls you in. I reviewed a song by them before, I know how they sound. Only this time is different, because it's like they reinvented their sound with this song. I love this bands dynamic, and they just have this way of pulling you in, I also love lyrics as you know. So I will share some from this song "It's in the blood, it's in the blood. I met my love before I was born, he wanted love, I taste of blood. He bit my lip and drank my war, from years before, from years before." That is so sick! Yeah the instrumentals on this are great, the drums and the guitar action compliment each other really well on this. I love the singing, the lead voice his tone and diction doesn't sound like everyone else's. As a singer myself, I appreciate unique voices, and how songs sound with the vocals. It's really cool how this guy sings, and if you decide to check this song out I promise you'll see what I mean :) This is a pretty old song, it came out 14 years ago, but it honestly is something I listen to in terms of genre I like, so to me it's not out of style.

Yes I am back at it again, with another song! Today's song is My Heroine by Silverstein! I really love the tone of this song, as well as the raw emotion in the lyrics. I also always appreciate a good scream in a song, and this deffinetly (I can never spell this word) delivers. The guitar action on this track is also really cool, I think the person playing it is really good at shredding. I will now share some lyrics, this is one of the screaming parts of the song. "You won't leave me alone, chisel my heart out of stone, I give in every time." I love that kind of emotion in a song. Someone very special to me sent me this song, and I knew I would love it when I heard the opening notes. Thank you to my special someone for sending me this, I love it and you so much! <3 Well I think that's all I have to say about this track, hope you check it out! :)

 Song 34

Hello my fellow music lovers! Welcome back to song reviews, happy September! I don't know about you but it's hotter than the freaking sun where I live, so I'm in my room with the fan on just hanging out. And I thought since it's a new month I would do a song review, so today's song is (drum roll) Your Song by Mayday Parade! Now this is not a cover of the Elton John song, they just have the same title. I love Mayday Parade, their music and vocals are so cool and I love the lyrics they have on their songs. This particular song I found only today but I just love it! The melody is very calming, slow and easy. The lyrics on this one are so beautiful, you can tell they put their heart and soul into this song. These are some of the lyrics: "I'll sing every song I wrote, if it will make you want to stay, and then I'll say. That I missed you, and these words they'll convince you. I poured through every song I wrote, every line that I've cried, every note that was spilt with this pen." So beautiful, this whole song is done on the piano with some sort of string instrument complimenting it. which makes it more peaceful. Good job Mayday Parade, for pulling me in with another wonderfully written song, it came out in 2006 but it's still amazing! Like I said good music never gets old. So I encourage all of you who read this to check it out, and give their other songs a listen as well. I promise you won't regret it! 

That's it for this review, I hope you all have a great week and I'll write you next time :)

song 33

 Song 33

Hello everybody, welcome back to song reviews! Today's song is Angel with a Shotgun, by The Cab! I really like how this one is arranged, and of course the lyrics really spoke to me on this one, I think this is a really romantic song and it has that vibe that I love which is a mix between punk and pop, this is the chorus: "I'm an angel with a shotgun, fighting til the war's won, I don't care if heaven won't take me back. I'll throw away my faith babe, just to keep you safe, don't you know you're everything I have. And I wanna live not just survive tonight." So sweet! The instrumentals on this are really cool as well, in the intro we have some nice drum work going on. But then you're also hit with guitar in the chorus, but there's mostly that drum beat going on in this song. Like the guitar is there, but it's not the star of the show. That's it for this one, I know it's short but that's all I have to say about it :) 

I hope you consider checking this out, you won't regret it! Even if it's not really your thing that's ok too, as long as you give it a chance that's all I ask :) and thank you for reading these I appreciate all of you <3

 Song 32

Hello music lovers, welcome back to song reviews! I have a nice treat today for ya, today's song is Begging for Trouble by AFI! Let's get into it, shall we? I like the vocals on this track, it has nice tone and a very unique sound. I also like the melody, the lyrics are really nice as well. Lyrics are huge for me, I like knowing what the singer is trying to say through their work. The thought and time they take to write down their inner most thoughts and feelings is beautiful. Fun fact I have actually tried to write my own lyrics, but they weren't very good. It's been forever since I tried writing lyrics, I don't know if I ever will again but we'll see. I can write stories but not so much music. Back to the song, there's a lot of nice drum work on this track. and I like this part of it: "We're not done, my trembling one, be still. Til I come parading back in red frills, with black thrills for you." I wonder what the process was like when they came up with these lyrics. I really like this song, I think it's unique the lyrics are top tier and I think everyone should check it out. 

(this song was once again brought to us by my wonderful boyfriend, who sends me songs music is something special we share and it always makes me happy when they send me songs :) Thanks babe <3
