Music In Me

He who sings scares away his woes.  ~Cervantes
Music is a main part of at least 99.99% of the world’s population. Getting music stuck in your head is very easy. For example, "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together" by Taylor Swift, is just one of the songs that I sing for hours on end.

"You know I'd fall apart without you. I don't know how you do what you do." Hunter Hayes is a 21 year old country singer that is very talented and very hot! I have a top six list for country singers who are male and one for the females.
Which are: Males: 1. George Strait 2. Luke Bryan 3. Jason Aldean 4. Hunter Hayes 5. Brad Paisley 6. Rascal Flatts.
Female: 1.Martina McBride 2. Reba 3. Lauren Alaina 4.Carrie Underwood 5.Taylor Swift 6. Faith Hill

Being that I was raised in a family that always listens to music and couldn't go a day without it, I will always listen to it. My dad and Uncle Harold introduced me to Motley Crue, Poison, Aerosmith, Van Halen, Bon Jovi, Def Leppard, Warrant, Green Day, Five Finger Death Punch, Pantera, Queen, and so many other bands.

Music to me is life and when I have my ear buds in, I'll zone out and visualize my life in music video form to that song.
The following is a song that my daddy wrote in the back of my baby book when I was first born and I want to dance to this at my Sweet 16 birthday party with him.

"The Maker Said Take Her"- Alabama
I was taught to believe
Never to doubt
The man up above knew what he’s
Talkin about
So when I heard that voice
So loud and clear
Speak to my heart
I knew that she must be near
The maker said take her and love her forever
Take care of her for life
And treat her right
I never was the one
To listen very well
I walk my own way
And felt what I felt
The further out of touch
With the master plan
Well she was like a flight to the promised land
The maker said take her and love her forever
Take care of her for life
Never forsake her don’t be a heart breaker
The maker said take her
And treat her right
Just treat her right
He placed an angle in the palm of my hand
And for once in my life I obeyed his commands
I’ll take her and love her forever
Take care of her for life
Never forsake her don’t be a heart breaker
The maker said take her
And treat her right
Just treat her right
Just treat her right
Take care of her for life
Never forsake her don’t be no heart breaker
The maker said take her
And treat her right
Just treat her right
For Life

Live While We're Young!

"Tonight lets get some and live while we're young!" Sounds like a new hit single to me.

Originally supposed to be released on October 1, 2012, One Direction's new single "Live While We're Young," came out a little earlier than expected. Meeting with management and discussing it with the label, Harry and Zayn thought that fans were waiting long enough.

September rolled around and about two weeks ago, "Live While We're Young" came on KISS 95.1. Fangirling was at an all time high. Cranking my stereo, my my mom told me "Oh Lord! Let the fangirling begin!" From the minute I heard my mom say that, I knew that she knew she had to learn the lyrics and love the song.

On Twitter, people were trending "#livewhilewe'reyoung" and on Facebook they were posting pictures from the video. Everyone was so excited that the new 1D single was here and the albums release is less than 2 months away.

Don't get me wrong, Justin Bieber is talented, but One Direction's album sales, sold out concerts, and over 300 million views for "What Makes You Beautiful", One Direction is a true competitor. This new single hasn't even been out a month yet and its already had over 29 million views on YouTube and more than 25 radio stations play it world wide!


Being between the ages of 18 and 20, of course they are going to be amaZAYN. See what I did there? I'm pretty sure that any person would love this album and would have them on replay all day and all night! Are you a Belieber? Are you a Directioner? Are you both?

Coming from a Directioner, I would recommend you get this album and go to a 1D concert. Buy, buy, buy! Listen, listen, listen! One Direction is sure to give you the One Direction Infection after you buy and listen to this album.

I leave you with this, "Lets go crazy crazy crazy til we see the sun! I know we only met but lets pretend its love and never never never stop for anyone! Tonight lets get some, and LIVE WHILE WE'RE YOUNG!"

Wings by Little Mix

"Mama told me not to waste my life. She said spread your wings my little butterfly. Don't let what they say keep you up at night and if they give you shh, then they can walk on by!" These are the words to a song that I am in love with. Its by a British girl band named Little Mix.

Whenever I heard this song for the first time, I got the message right away. This is honestly my favorite girl group and they are really talented. Telling listeners to not listen to the hater in their lives and to be all they can. My favorite line is "And they can't detain you, these wings are made to fly!"

They are from the UK as well and they are very sensational over here in the US. Just how the song is written is really genius and they are very clear with their message. It's like they're saying, "Haters, step aside. I've been given wings, it's time for me to fly!"

When they wrote the song, Perrie says that the band wanted to send out a message that if you chase your dreams and don't give up, your wings will take flight. You go Perrie! Zayn, her boyfriend, is in the spotlight right now as well. Being one of the heart throbs in the always gorgeous One Direction, they are always trying to record and balance a relationship. Both at which they are very good at.

Listen to the song and understand the message. Hope y'all enjoy it!

Contraversial Video (What We've Read)

Have you ever stopped to think that America's actions can backfire as soon as they are seen or heard? Or that they might cause an uproar?

YouTube, one of the most popular sites for music and laughs. When I look at it now, it's more like a site for causing problems. Two attacks in one week, yeah it's a YouTube users stupid opinion that made all this happen. What was supposed to be "freedom of speech" led to a huge mess overseas. Really? Bashing another religions prophet and thinking that they are never going to get word of it? Lord have mercy man!

Day one of the attacks left an American ambassator dead and several injured. Day two, another ambassator is dead and several more are injured. While America is left in shock as to why the attacks had happened. Tracing back to the video, they discovered that this man has bashed the prophet Muhammad and thousands upon thousands of Muslims infuriated.

So whats next? Leave the video up and let the killings continue? Or take it down and try to make peace with them. What if us Americans who want it to stop are right, and the rest of you are wrong?

Boys R Us

What would you do if you knew your crush was crushing on you hard? Thats exactly what Massie Block is asking herself.

At Massie Block's estate, all the latest clothes are in and so is the latest gossip. Claire, or as Massie calls her Kuh-Laire, and her guy friend, Cam, are hurrying up to Massie's closet because of a text message reading, "hlp!!! Guest bedroom closet. Hurry x 10." Claire thought that she would run up to the closet and see Massie in tears, mascara running down her face, and wearing last seasons Juicy jumpsuit.

Of course, she had the sobbing down pat, but she was completely wrong about the rest of her scenario. Massie looked at Cam and Claire and said, "I can't decide which which bag to donate to the homeless and which one to keep." Claire's face had that "seriously?" look to it. Holding out a dark blue Chloe Paddington clutch in her left hand and a buttery, tan Kooba in her right. Massie looked at Caire and asked which one do you like more, seeing how dress like the less fortunate?" Claire looked at Massie and Cam laughed at Claire.

"Time's up," massie said lowering her ams. "I'm keeping both." Massie was never one to get rid of her favorite designer hand bags or her favorite pair of Chanel earrings. Massie is a spoiled little girl that always has to make the "fashion crippled" with their outfits.

RIP Uncle Harold

When I was 8 years old, my Uncle Harold sadly passed away of a massive heart attack. Harold was like a second dad to me and we picked with each other all the time. He was only 27 when he died. He died in August, and his 28 birthday would be on September 19 of that year too.

Harold and I were always close and we played around just goofing off. Yeah we would sometimes had our little disagreements but we always made up for them. Having the same interest in music, we would watch the music videos for Poison and Motley Crue's music.

I would always remember the 2004 Super Bowl matchup between the Patriots and the Panthers. Harold, his wife Vicky, and their daughter Hannah, came to the house and watched it with us. Of course, Harold was pulling for the Patriots, while I at the time, was a Panther fan. Patriots won the game and he was picking on me and my dad. This is where my love for the Patriots began.

Our favorite song by the Crue is "Home Sweet Home." I would like to post this video of "Home Sweet Home" in his memeory. Love and miss you Uncle Harold. Keep Heaven laughing. (the actual music video starts at 1:25)
