Happy first of October everyone!
The first post of every month is now going to my music favourites because, well, I want it to be.
The first post of every month is now going to my music favourites because, well, I want it to be.
Like last month, which you can read here, I'm just going to show you my iTunes playlist with my favourite songs all of which were on constant repeat throughout October. Perfect, isn't it?
As you can see I like many different genres: pop, country, dance just to mention the ones above.
First on the list is Beneath Your Beautiful by Labrinth feat Emeli Sandé which is definitely a surprise favourite of mine. I'm not a fan of either artists, but this collaboration and song is simply perfection - I never knew Labrinth - famed for rapping - could sing so well.
Rascacielo by Demi Lovato is the Spanish version of her song "Skyscraper". In my opinion, it's better than the original English version and considering I know all of the words in Spanish shows how addicted I am!
Can we just all take a minute to appreciate Taylor Swift's new album, Red? I could put her whole album up there, yet I decided to go with my most-played being, funnily enough, the name of the album. Red by Taylor Swift is such a great song - it's got beautiful, relatable lyrics and her voice is as stunning as always.
I love dance music - Calvin Harris, Pendulum and, of course, Swedish House Mafia. Their previous singles "One" and "Save The World" are classics, and their new one is no exception. Don't You Worry Child by Swedish House Mafia has been on repeat ever since I first heard it - it's super catchy and just makes you want to dance, obviously! I just wish it was longer than 3 and a half minutes, thank God for the repeat button!
Lastly, we have a song that will always bring back memories for me. I first heard this song when I was in H&M (random, I know) in 5th Avenue, New York. You know when you haven't heard a song before you jot down some of the lyrics to google later, well I did that when I got home and have been addicted to it ever since. It's Better Than Her by Matisse, an artist I've never heard of but she sings the most addictive songs ever. It's so catchy, I'm listening to it as I write this now!

Before I went to New York, I was on iTunes buying songs for the boring near enough 8 hour flight when I came across a new band. Little Comets (pictured above) are an indie-rock trio from Jarrow and Newcastle and are made up of two brothers and their best mate. I listened to their latest album, Life Is Elsewhere and instantly new I found a new favourite band of mine. Their songs are so easy to listen too which makes it so relaxing! If I had to choose a favourite song from the album it would be "W-O-E", which I have no idea what it stands for, and "Jennifer". The guitar playing in both is amazing and so distinctive, ah I just love them. Definitely check them out if you haven't - you certainly won't regret it, I promise you.
Beauty reviews back tomorrow!
