Happy Veterans Day

I just wanted to pop on and say a big thank you to all of the Veterans. Thank you for all of your sacrifices, thank you for doing what you do and have done for our country. Without you, and your sacrifices, we would no be where we are today. Thank you for serving our country. A lot of people in my family have served. It is a great honor to know people who have served and I know it is a great honor for them to have served. Thank you to everyone who had served and are currently serving.

The other day my school held a Veterans Day assembly and we invited Veterans for it and I couldn't help but cry. Seeing the pride on their face, and their emotions was so....amazing. Watching their faces as we gave them a standing ovations just made me break down, is was so heart warming. Playing in the orchestra for them was such an honor.

Thank you Veterans and Soldiers currently serving. In all branches of the Military. Thank you. We are the Land of the free because of the brave.

Music Mondays #3



Today I want to make my post about more than just a song, but a group. Pentatonix. They are an a Capella group how sings popular songs. If you don't know what a Capella is, it is where you make music, entirely without instruments. Its all done mostly by singing and beat boxing. Pentatonix is very very good and my favorite cover of theirs is Can't Hold Us, originally by Macklmore. I am going to include the link to their YouTube channel and I really suggest you check them out!! Pentatonix

Music Monday #2

Hey its MUSIC MONDAY!! This song is again one that I did not like when I heard it originally but it grew on my like Royals did. I would like to present Summertime Sadness by Lana Del Rey. I am listening to it now. There are two versions of Summertime Sadness, the remix, which is more upbeat and fast, then there is the original version of Summertime Sadness which is slower but just as good. The original version has more of an emotion sound to it. But the song either way is very good and very good to listen too. I know it may be "mainstream" to like this song, same with Royals, but I like it and I want to share it with you guys. I am putting both versions below so.....check it out!

I Heard It First

There are many things that people say that really irritate me. One happens to be when a song comes on that you, and a lot of other people, enjoy and they say "I heard this song first! I hate that everyone likes it now when I heard it first". First off people, that song was not made for just you to like. That song was made by an artist for a lot of people to listen to and enjoy. Second, you should be happy for this artist because they just became popular and are successful from this song. That is what artists are looking for, to share their music with a large audience of people and have them like it. They don't make a song just for one person to listen to and like. They made it for EVERYONE. I don't care if you discovered a song or artist first, before they became popular, good for you! I am allowed to enjoy them (artist or song) just as you are. But here is a cookie for you, congrats that you discovered them first.

There rant over:)

There is a song I am currently in LOVE with. Royals by Lorde. It is such a fun, catchy song. I don't even know how to describe it. I used to HATE this song but it slowly grew on me. I now love it and constantly have it on replay! Here is the song!! Hope you enjoy as much as I do!
