"One good thing about music, when it hits you, you feel no pain.”



This is one of Bob Marley’s famous music quotes on which I couldn’t agree more. In my opinion music is a complex thing. There’re so many different genres, instruments and voices that can bring us beautiful music. Because of these many choices, everybody has his or her own taste in music. 


Mine is quite variant. I’m into a lot of different music genres, not one in particular. My door is always open for new music as well. If I’d had to make a list with all my favourite bands and singers, it would be a very long one. There are just so many good artists out there. The internet is a great tool for me to discover all those artists and listen to their inspiring music. 


Now I will tell you some of my favourite artists and songs at the moment, if you like. I can’t say I’m into one genre, such as pop or rock, I’m actually into quite a few genres including those. Artists like Bastille, Linkin Park, Evanescence,  Imagine Dragons, OneRepublic, Mumford and Sons, Plumb, Panic! At the Disco, Fall Out Boy, Paramore, and so on… The only thing I think they would have in common (as far as I know) is that they don’t really make typical music. Wherever I hear one of their songs, I will recognise it instantly. I like that. Another thing I like is that there’s always a meaning behind the lyrics of the song. That’s music for me.


My favourite songs at the moment:


Bastille

Bastille and Ella covered this song ‘No Scrubs’ (originally by TLC) I’m obsessed with his version.




This is one of the songs on Birdy’s debut album called ‘Shelter’ (originally by The xx). I heard this song somewhere in the background of a series (can’t remember which one it was). 


  

Goodnight Argent is a band I discovered on Youtube a few months ago and I just love their music. Especially with this song: 




And I'll stop here for now :)  So I hope you liked it!
We'll see you next time!

  1. Bastille is pretty damn awesome! Check out their covers of 'what would you do' and 'we can't stop'.
