I've Fallen In Love...

I've fallen in love with music! Music is so important. I love to write it, play it and listen to it. My keyboard is a part of my heart as is my iPod. I am so in love with music there is no way back. The colours of the voices in the songs, the colours of the instruments, the way it all looks, the way it feels, the way there is a song to fit every emotion down to the finest detail, ,the way music is so free, they lyrics. Just everything about music makes my heart sing. Ironic that. 

But I don't fall in love with bad music. It has to have meaning and the right balance of colours. The voice has to have something to it. The colour of it has to fit. The instruments have to work together so beautifully that you don't know they are all so different. The lyrics have to be meaningful and clever and have something in them. I love this Indie-Folk mix of music. 'The Frames', 'Turin Brakes', 'Fleet Foxes', 'Russian Red' ect. I love typical country, my personal favourite being 'Josh Turner'- there is just something about his voice- and I love the typical folk of 'Alela Diane'. Then there is the slightly more up beat stuff that I love. But music has to have meaning and passion and fit well together.

I have a song of the day. It is a song that I listen to that day just because it fits. Today it was 'Can You Feel The Love Tonight' by 'Elton John'. It fitted today because it is happy if you really listen to the lyrics, but the tempo is sad. Today was a sad day, despite how happy I was. The song just seemed to fit it perfectly. 

My song of the day sometimes lasts for weeks. About two months ago it was 'Junkie Song' by 'The Be Good Tanyas'. It fitted because it was so sad and helpless. That doesn't need explaining. But the song didn't change because it fitted so well. Another time '5 Mile (These Are The Days)' was my song for about a month. I think it was because of the lyrics. But music is powerful and can reflect anything.

Disney music is so clever and beautiful. They lyrics have the most meaning. You cannot get better than the clever lyrics of 'Bare Necessities' from 'Jungle Book'. They lyrics are so clever. But the music is beautiful. The older songs are definitely my favourite. Disney is so beautiful. The music, characters, story lines... Disney is amazing. Disney is a pick-me-up and a comfort. As a child you watch Disney. You go to the charity shop and pick up the videos for 50 pence. Disney is something that everybody has in common. It is beautiful.

I want to get married to 'You'll Be In My Heart' from 'Tarzan'. I'd love to have a romantic dinner with 'The Little Mermaids' 'Kiss The Girl' playing in the background. On my birthday I'd love to be woken up to 'Under The Sea' playing in Spanish. If a guy ever asks me to marry him, it has to be 'Kiss The Girl' in Italian. When I am feeling down, I text my best mates and put on 'You've Got A Friend In Me'. When I want a good cry, I listen to 'Little April Showers' from 'Bambi'. When I want a laugh or something on goes 'Hakuna Matata' or 'Bibidi Bobidi Boo' or something. Disney fits every emotion and will always play an important part in my life. Love Disney! 

For me, the older movies are the best. Everyone has so much character in itself. The best modern Disney has to be 'Toy Story' or 'Monsters Inc.' Disney spins so many beautiful stories and makes so many childhoods. It is beautiful. Life is not complete without Disney. 

To be perfectly honest, I love music so much I am totally and utterly in love with it. It holds the key to my heart. Live music is my favourite way to listen to music apart from the crowds and drunk people. Seeing 'Noah And The Whale' live was awesome. It's a memory that I will hold forever, but I prefer to sit and watch music, whether it be a busker, a friend or something. Music is so magical. Falling in love with music is so easy and being connected to it is amazing. 

Good music is slowly dwindling as it is replaced by meaningless rap and songs that are written in a studio on a machine. Music should be something that we all love and take time over to create something magical. Who needs studio created sounds when you can get the more natural sounds from an instrument? I love music so much and I think that every song should be created with care and meaning. One of my favourite bands front men made his album on an old recording machine in his living room. He had to record each instrument individually. But before he did that, he had to mend the machine. That is true love for music. 

Music is so important and beautiful. It has been around for so long and will last for ever. It is a gist and beautiful. It is so easy to create music, but to create works of art with music is amazing. Music is amazing and you should love it with your heart! 

Sorry about the amount of links, but music is just too amazing not to link it to anything at all. So ya know.
