Happy August! This post is a monthly feature on this blog, where I list 10 songs (and a few honorary ones) that I’ve been obsessed with the past month. Now that it’s August, and the summer is here, I feel like this month is going to be good, I’m seeing a bunch of my friends this month for the last time before they all head off to University and I start my gap year (which so far has consisted of binge watching Arrow, Shrek, Harry Potter and Modern Family). Anyway, let’s get started, July was a fairly ‘chill’ month, with a few parties in between including MY 18TH which was a tonne of fun. The music for July is fairly similar, with a relative ‘summer’ feel, but a bit more subdued, especially towards the end of July where it’s just been raining non-stop.

These songs are great, they’re either feel good or thought provoking, yet they’re both fulfilling at the same time.
See you next time for a Doctor Who post!

WHO SHOULD HAVE WON AT THE BRITS?
brit awards, david guetta, ed sheeran, ella eyre, first aid kit, foxes, galantis, george ezra, http://schemas.google.com/blogger/2008/kind#post, imagine dragons, marina and the diamonds, phillip phillips, tiësto, twin atlantic, years & yearsObviously, all the artists that won did so deservedly apart from One Direction, sorry. However, I can’t help but feel as if some musicians that weren’t nominated should have won, or those that were nominated but lost should have won. If I haven’t mentioned a category it’s because I agree with the outcome. Here’s my verdict:
1. International Group
2. British Video
3. British Single
4. British Breakthrough Act
5. International Male Solo Artist

Music Videos I Like

Basically, music videos are my life. Not really, but still, they’re a huge part. It’s great to be able to see a visualisation of music. I don’t know what I’m saying. Let’s get started! Here are a bunch of music videos I find myself watching more than often.
1. Birdy – Wings
2. Marina and the Diamonds – Radioactive
3. Keaton Henson – You Don’t Know How Lucky You Are
This one’s a bit strange, because it’s just one shot of a woman crying, but the emotion conveyed surpasses a video with tonnes of different scenes and cuts.
4. Porter Robinson – Lionhearted
SO MUCH COLOUR
5. HAIM – Falling
6. Bombay Bicycle Club – Carry Me
7. Zedd ft. Foxes – Clarity
8. Lorde – Yellow Flicker Beat
9. Hurts – Stay
10. Florence + The Machine – Never Let Me Go
11. Sheppard – Geronimo
12. Ellie Goulding – Starry Eyed
