Another David Guetta? (#TT115)

Hello lovelies!

I believe some of you have listened to this song "Clarity" by Zedd ft. Foxes. 

I've been seeing a great flow of uploads of YouTube covers by independent musicians but never really checked out the original musicians. 

It got me wonder. If these DJs never partnered up with famous singers, they would probably never get so much popularity as they do now. 

I'm honestly not the biggest fan of electro/dubstep music, but I truly appreciate their work and I'm happy that this genre has finally found a place in the music industry today. Not only inside a recording room as producers or in the club to keep the music on all night, but also on stage as performer. 

Just look at David Guetta, Calvin Harris, Swedish House Mafia, Baauer, and so on. Interestingly most of them are originated from Europe hmm..

I know many of us complain of how "disappointing" the music industry is today, talking about pop culture here.. 

It's true that it is different in many aspects, but if you look at the bright side, it has opened up new doors for new talents! 

The DJ in the club that you go on a Friday night might be the next nominated artist in the Grammy's!  

Moving on,

The Script's latest single/music video! 

Hope you enjoyed this post!

Do you listen to electro/dubstep?

Putting a smile on your face :) (#TT114)

Hello lovelies!

There are 3 songs that I wanna share with you this week.

The first one is a song that you've probably already heard, it's "Everything Has Changed" by T Swift and Mr. Lovely Ed Sheeran. The video is totes adorbs! The media has been gossiping about the "hidden meaning" of the video, which might link to Taylor and Ed's possible romance -.-

Although the prediction is possible to be true, but hey come on, can we just enjoy the music video? People are over analyzing sometimes..

The next one! JoJo! 

She came up with a new mixtape, "Agápē", around late last year and this is an official music video from one of the singles! I really like her new hairstyle, I think it suits her well (or probably just because I like short wavy bobs which is why I chopped my hair off and got it permed) :)

It's a shame that this was not an album, I mean, the tracks on this mixtape SO deserve to be sold as an album. Same goes with her previous mixtape, "Can't Take That Away From Me". 

Click HERE for FREE download of Agápē!

Next: 2AM Club!

I've always loved every single of 2AM Club's song, but I'm not so sure of this one.. It sounds more like an uncreative pop song these days. I'm not trying to be mean, it's just a little disappointing :/ I'm still looking forward to hearing their other songs in the future though!

Till' the next post!

All about mainstream (#TT113)

Yeap! What he said ;)

Hello lovelies!

Last week I was overseas for work and really had no time to blog so that's why there was no TT last week..  But I'm back with some new music for your ears' enjoyment! You might have heard some of them on the radio. 

Check it out!

One word: HOT!

I never liked Miley's music nor acting, but I gotta say that her new style is pretty dope. Guilty pleasure.

Crazy kids. Nuff' said :D

Had enough of the mainstream? Joe Brooks has the solution for ya!

Listen to his latest EP HERE! I really like the theme design of this EP. It's like a Disney animation :)

What songs do you listen to lately? 

Do share with me :)

Keep smiling!

New bands on the list (#TT112)

Hi lovelies!

Just a quick music post of the week.

All of the bands below are from the same record company, Hopeless Records.

Hope you enjoy!

Interesting band name huh?

The lyrics are kinda sad :/

This is so cool! A rock band with brass instruments. Like it :)

Let me know what you think!

Have a great week!

Growing up (TT#111)

Hey lovelies!

Let’s talk about growing up..

There are benefits and disadvantages of being a grown up, I think the following songs may explain some of them.

My sk8ter gurl is back!!! She never gets old ;) Love Avril!

The punk version of Avril’s song. 10 years back she would have done it this way! Love the little “Complicated” medley ;) Purrrrfect!

Two of my favorite songs off Paramore self-titled album!

Can’t stop listening to this <3

Love the gospel feel of this song!

So Avril’s song and Paramore’s may contradict each other in this case. But I’m not on either side, in fact I’m on BOTH sides. As an adult, we need to make decisions on our own, take risks, be responsible, and overall take control of our life. But it’s true that sometimes it sucks to be a grown up. The stress, the complicated things and at these moments you would wish that you had never grown up because being a kid is WAY much easier. You just need to stress about what to play! Lol. I gotta admit that I miss being a kid and not giving a damn about anything. But I know when my parents started dictating or restricting me from things, I’d say “I’m not a kid anymore!” Haha. Dilemma indeed.

Well, since we can’t turn back the time, we just need to deal with it. Being an adult is awesome too. We can do what kids can’t do *troll-face* XD

Hope you’re having a great week!

xo, Jo
