I’m so sure I’ve heard this song before. Either on a movie or tv show. It sonically sounds so dope. You cannot deny the obvious connotations being implied in this song. But it waht I get from this song is that the person writing this song recognises the smooth words a potential suitor is trying to put on her. And they feel they’re wrestling with their flesh to not succumb to their feelings they’re starting to feel. Have you ever been in a conversation with someone and just had to actively hold yourself from saying something very disrespectful. As someone

This song is another massive reason why I absolutely love doing Song Of the Week. I don’t really listen to popular music but I’ve heard this song- in the barbershop I go to- many times. Do you know what I really love to watch or see sometimes? You know in sports where in the last minute of time or in the last play of the game. The crowd goes incredibly wild. Fans start jumping onto the pitch. People on the sidelines and the bench are acting like they have just lost their minds. I love seeing this In that moment

When Jessica wrote this song down I didn’t recognise it at all. But upon the first time  hearing it I immediately knew that I have heard it before. I believe through advertsand other forms of broadcasts. To be honest the song sonically sounds wonderful. But for me is slightly depressing.  Like that part of I’ll probably follow you home?! Haha nah I’m good, thankyou. There’s a saying that honesty is the best policy, I fully agree with that and it is what she does throughout this. Another beautiful song that just feels as though she was vibing in her studio as

Alexis here chose one of the biggest party tunes you can ever find.  Niggas In Paris. I love to watch interviews of people and seeing  and hearing their stories, what they get up to in life and things like that. One of the most interesting stories I have heard about this song is from Snoop Dogg’s GGN Network platform. I can’t remember who was being interviewed at the time( it was a producer of some sort) and they were talking about this song. Apparently this beat was intended for a rapper named Pusha T and if I remember correctly Pusha

If you have read any of my early blogs. You may  be aware that one of my favourite ever songs is U2- Beautiful Day.  The choice for Song Of the Week is from U2 but this song is a song I have never heard before. The lyrics of this song certainly resonate with me. In the few years of life I’ve had on this Earth I’m starting to discover this song is so true in so many ways. When I was young I had the perception I needed to be this, do this achieve that. But if you’re not helping

Catherine (Christmas Choice 2 )

If you’ve been doing your Christmas shopping in the last few days you’ve probably been hearing this song quite a fair bit. And you may be on the verge of sicking of it haha. But this song truly is a masterpiece Like the 1st Christmas choice this song takes me back to when I was younger. I remember when I’d run down the stairs wanting to see what I got for Christmas. I remember the times I would be so happy when I got exactly what I wanted or I wouldn’t be as happy when I didn’t get exactly what

Alice ( Christmas Choice 1 )

As I write this. I legit have the Google Santa Tracker open in another tab currently he’s in Porto Amboim, Angola. Wonder how he likes the weather there, assuming it would be very different to the North Pole. The amount of renditions and cover versions this song has insane. Over 200! Just finding the original(earliest version) was a bit harder than expected. I remember when I was youngerand I was so adamant that Santa exists and people in school would try to argue that there’s no such thing I need to get a grip. Something everyone would have experienced at

I’m not really a big clubber, bit too shy for that lol!  But song oft he week comes from Jonathan who chose a proper clubbing tune. What struck me about the video of this song is the amount of people in the crowd rocking to a song that has 0 lyrics. Like Tiesto is not saying anything, there are no profound deep meanings that have people crying in the front part of the crowd like and Adele or Rihanna concert. But it’s still equally as powerful in its own right. And if you’re able to make people feel something you
