Take me away

Level of Crunch – 10/10

Amount of replays- uncountable

Rating – hella

Occasionally there is a song that just hits so close to home and this is absolutely one of them. This song has become much more than just a sick beat and some crunchy tunes. The lyrics sing a song that was my life a little over a year ago.  I have yet to find a song to perfectly match that time in my life until now. The connection to this song is so deeply rooted inside of me I honestly don’t think I’ll ever get over this song. 

The first time you listen to it I am sure that you think it’s about some sort of drug like ecstasy, which I don’t condone.  But, if actually sit down and listen to the lyrics Troye is singing about loneliness , just existing and not feeling anything , and having to use prescribed medication to get that ounce of happiness that eventually just ends up numbing you to everything.

This song is truly about the struggle of depression and the thing people do to try to mute the sadness inside of themselves. This song hurts in such a good way and I am so happy that this song is doing so well.

Troye’s EP drops on August 15^th and I highly suggest getting it.

Right now that I’m done being emosh back to your daily routine

p.s. this is the first time i've ever really publicly talked about anything like this soooo .... keep the chill 

Music : bringing people together since ... forever

Music is a rather important feature in my life, besides movies of course. I listen to more music than I watch TV , I don’t even have cable anymore. But i’ve always found it so fascinating that a particular song can take you back to a time and place in your life whether it be a wild night from spring break , a heart break, or a crowd of people at a club all singing the same song.

I guess I am making a music diary, is that a thing? If it’s not I am going to make it a thing. Below are just a few songs that I’ve been addicted to this past month, plus a few oldies. ( there are a couple of songs that I couldn’t find on 8Tracks so I’ll just add them below this playlist.)

July from JustHannah19 on 8tracks Radio.

My current favorite jam is – Happy Little Pill ( By TroyeSivan)

1       Money Trees by Kendrick Lamar

a.       Why you ask? Because yeh bish

2       Habits – Tove Lo Chainsmokers edit

a.       To be honest I like this mostly because the beat.

3       Thinking Out Loud – Ed Sheeran

a.       This is of my favorite songs by Ed currently. This particular song is off his new album “X” and I highly suggest taking a listen

4       Tenerife Sea – Ed Sheeran

a.       Also a favorite off his new album , although the quality on 8Tracks is poor , Youtube it I promise that you won’t be disappointed.

5       Come Get it Bae – Pharrel

a.       This song I actually listened to the first time on the radio and it made me involuntarily dance in my car.

6       Earthquake – DJ Fresh , Diplo and Dominique Young

a.       I first heard Earthquake at XS , a club in vegas. This song was playing whilst my best friend and I were first entering the club and it was a very surreal moment.  Also , a fantastic song to play as loud as your ears can handle.

7       Sweet Victory – IDK

a.       You know why.

8       Delirious – Steve Aoki

a.       Yet another song I heard for the first time at XS. No words can describe that night but I believe that this song does that night justice… That whole weekend actually

9     I love it- Icona Pop and Charli XCX –

a.       When you hear well over 500 people shouting I don’t care… I love it as loud as they can… just does something to yeh I guess.

10   Happy Little Pill – Troye Sivan

a.       Well I am quite addicted to watching people on youtube, and Troye was a channel I have been subscribed to for quite a long time actually. About two weeks ago he announced that he was going to drop his debut album called “ Trxye” and I was so excited. This is his first single from it and I cannot stop mashing the replay button. What really draws me to this song though is the lyrics. ( this song isn’t on the 8Tracks list but it is available to listen to on sound cloud I highly suggest you go take a listen)
