Thursday Tunes(on a Monday) = Music Mondays.

   


Greetings earthlings, 

Long time no see! It seems that final year college has taken up more time than I intially anticipated, that and Christmas celebrations! 

I listened to a lot of music over the Christmas weeks and suddenly found myself obsessed with Biggie Smalls.
 I don't know how this happened but I'm not going to fight it! I understand that I'm about 20 years late on the Biggie Bandwagon but I'm hopping on none the less!
Needless to say, Biggie is included in this week's Thursday Tunes. 

Aswell as Biggie I've recently discovered an artist called Chlöe Howl, I'm excited to see what the future holds for this oh so chouette 19 year old. 

Here's this week's playlist, enjoy x

1.Chlöe Howl- Rumour. Listen here
2. Biggie Smalls Ja Rule Remix- Old Thing Back Listen here

3. Marina and The Diamonds Froot
4. Nick Jonas ft Tinashe- Jealous Remix Listen here

5.Jamie Lynn Spears-How Could I Want More Listen here

6.Tom Misch- Soulection White Label:008 Listen here

7.Annie(Cameron Diaz)- Little Girls Listen here 

8.Marina and The Diamonds Happy Listen here
9.Chloe Howl Disappointed (acoustic) Listen here

10. James Bay Hole Back The River Listen here

                     Who What Where Why When

Chloe Howl: Obsessed. I've been listening to this girl non stop for the past month. She has a gorgeous distinctive voice that seems to fit any style of music. She tells it like it is with her honest lyrics documenting teenage life. This girl is going to be huge, trust me.
Her Twitter page is also well worth the follow, hilarious. Really want to go drinking with her.

Biggie: What can I say? The Notorius B.I.G got me.

Nick Jonas ft Tinashe: The Disney Chanel sweetheart we all fell for way back when is back. I love his new style and have been playing this remix non stop.

Jamie Lynn Spears: I have to say I really admire this girl. She had a baby young and left a life in the spotlight to raise her. Now six years later, shes back with an amazing Country style EP. This song was out a year ago, I have no idea why I didn't write about it sooner but hey, better late than never! I think this style of music fits her voice perfectly. Also, I pulled a sickie from school to watch the very first episode of Zoey 101 when I was about 10 so I may just be her biggest fan ever.

Tom Misch: I've been trying to listen to soundcloud more to listen to a broader range of music. It was there that I discovered Tom Misch, I find his remixes very relaxing and love listening to them when I'm out on walks.

Cameron Diaz(as Mrs Hannigan): I brought my cousin's young daughter to see the new Annie remake and I have to say it was one of the highlights of my Christmas. Listening to a little one tell you how  excited they are to see a film always adds to it regardless but I have to say I really enjoyed it and would highly recommend it.

Marina and The Diamonds: I've been a fan of this Goddess since the start and her newest album FROOT does not disappoint.

James Bay: Another young artist making me feel like a massive underachiever. His soothing voice and long locks are enough to make anyone swoon. He is without a doubt another one to watch.



I hope you enjoyed this week's long overdue post.
May 2015 be the year I finally commit to this blog!

Stay classy,

*Foreign language song of the week*

WHO WHAT WHERE WHY 

       Allman Brown & Liz Lawrence     - Love the sound of these two together. Liz Lawrence is my latest obsession. I'm currently searching for a link to the full version of one of her songs to share with you, stay tuned!

                Galatica     - My friend Kitty introduced me to this tune that I.can't.stop.playing.

Clean Bandit & Jesse Glynn- Everything she touches turns to gold. She makes me want to be ginger.

              Juno   - By far one of my favourite movie soundtracks. It reminds me of being 15,orange tic tacs and blue slushies.

             Majestic Bears- A Galway based band that I am lucky enough to be friends with and to have helped out in the design of their debut EP. If you haven't listened to them yet, you need to. You can check out their facebook page here

          Regina Spektor- OITNB.

         Ellie Goulding & Erik Hassle- I like the simplicity of this one,
Ellie Goulding, is of course, Ellie Goulding. Erik Hassle is the Swedish success story my friend Ash introduced me too. Haven't heard much from him since 2010.

          We The Wild- I discovered this London based duo today and am seriously impressed. Really excited to see where the go. You can check out their facebook page here

               Miles Elkington- Ok so this may be an Australia's Got Talent audition as opposed to a released single but it is by far my favourite cover of this song. This guy has a big future.

                      Kaeligh  Rose- At only 16 this girl is definitely one to watch.

Thursday Tunes

Greetings earthlings,

Due to various factors including work, laziness and illness I have not blogged since May.(shocking I'm sure..)
For those of you that are still here, thank you! I thought I'd ease myself back into blogging with a new edition of Thursday Tunes, so without further edue, here are 10 songs I've been loving this week. :)

Stay classy, 
Lxx

1. Wet- I Don't Wanna Be Your Girl (Branchez Remix) Listen here
    2. Marina And The Diamonds- Obsessions (The Aspirin For My       Children Remix)   Listen here
   3. Josh Record- Wide Awake. Listen here
   4. Sinéad O'Connor- Take Me To Church. Listen here
   5. Marina And The Diamonds Boyfriend Cover. Listen here
   6. Paramore Ain't It Fun Listen here
   7. Thin Lizzy- Sarah Listen here
   8..The Riptide Movement- All works out. Listen here
   9.Thomas Cohen- Honeymoon. Listen here
   10. Hozier-Eden.  Listen here.

*Foreign Language song of the week*(Does that sound racist? Should I refer to it as 'Non-English song of the week? The struggle is real.)
Indila- Derniére Danse. Listen here


Who What Where Why When

Wet-   This Brookylyn based trio know what they're at.

Marina And The Diamonds- The Grecian Goddess that can do no wrong(in my eyes anyway.)

Josh Record- An upcoming superstar this guy is one to watch. I was lucky enough to see him perform live at Longitude festival last Summer and he was just as good, if not better, live.

Sinéad O'Connor- My spirit animal. The outspoken Irish music Queen herself is back with her new album 'I'm Not Bossy, I'm The Boss.'

Paramore- The song is good, the music video even better. A Guinness World Record in itself.

Thin Lizzy- I discovered Thin Lizzy a few years ago and haven't looked back since. This song is one of the sweetest out there, Phil Lynott's ode to his baby daughter Sarah. Phil Lynott is another spirit animal of mine. Thin Lizzy are easily the best Irish rock band to date(in my opinion) enjoy!

The Riptide Movement- This song has become very  well known in Ireland but I thought it would be a good one to include for those of you outside Ireland, one of Ireland's next biggest bands!

Thomas Cohen- You may need the Kleenex for this one. Thomas Cohen is the husband of the late Peaches Geldof. He wrote this song Honeymoon about/for her last year. I, like many of you I'm sure, was one of Peaches' many followers on instagram. Here I discovered Tom and his music. He was formerly in the band S.C.U.M before going solo. This song is mesmerizing, his voice could sooth the angriest soul.

Hozier- The Irish artist from Bray Co.Wicklow that is smashing it at the moment. Doing the Irish proud! His songs Take Me To Church(listen here) and Cherry Wine (listen here.) are also well worth a listen.
