Favourite Song Of The Week

Halsey - Hurricane


Lyrics:

There's a place way down in Bed Stuy,
Where a boy lives behind bricks,
He's got an eye for girls of eighteen,
And he turns them out like tricks

I went down to a place in Bed Stuy
A little liquor on my lips
I let him climb inside my body
And held him captive in my kiss

And there's a storm you're starting now
And there's a storm you're starting now
And there's a storm you're starting

I'm a wanderess
I'm a one night stand
Don't belong to no city
Don't belong to no man
I'm the violence in the pouring rain
I'm a hurricane
Ha ah ah ha ah ah ah
I'm a hurricane
Ha ah ah ha ah ah ah
I'm a hurricane

I went down to a place in Brooklyn
Where you tripped on LSD
And I found myself reminded
To keep you far away from me

And there's a storm you're starting now
And there's a storm you're starting now
And there's a storm you're starting

I'm a wanderess
I'm a one night stand
Don't belong to no city
Don't belong to no man
I'm the violence in the pouring rain
I'm a hurricane
Ha ah ah ha ah ah ah
I'm a hurricane
Ha ah ah ha ah ah ah
I'm a hurricane

He says, "Oh, baby, beggin' you to save me.
Well lately, I like 'em crazy.
Oh, maybe, you could devastate me.
Little lady, come and fade me."

I'm a wanderess
I'm a one night stand
Don't belong to no city
Don't belong to no man
I'm the violence in the pouring rain

Come and fade me
Come and fade me
I'm a hurricane

Favourite Song Of The Week

Melanie Martinez - Carousel


Lyrics:

Round and round like a horse on a carousel, we go,
will I catch up to love? I could never tell, I know,
chasing after you is like a fairytale, but I,
feel like I'm glued on tight to this carousel

Come, come one, come all,
you must be this tall
to ride this ride at the carnival

Oh, come, take my hand
and run through playland
so high, too high at the carnival

And it’s all fun and games,
'til somebody falls in love,
but you've already bought a ticket,
and there’s no turning back now

Round and round like a horse on a carousel, we go,
will I catch up to love? I could never tell, I know,
chasing after you is like a fairytale, but I,
feel like I'm glued on tight to this carousel

This horse is too slow,
we’re always this close,
almost, almost, we’re a freakshow

Right, right when I’m near,
it’s like you disappear,
where’d you go? Is that Houdini or a freakshow?

And it’s all fun and games,
'til somebody falls in love,
but you've already bought a ticket,
and there’s no turning back now

Round and round like a horse on a carousel, we go,
will I catch up to love? I could never tell, I know,
chasing after you is like a fairytale, but I,
feel like I'm glued on tight to this carousel

Why did you steal my cotton candy heart?
you threw it in this damn coin slot,
and now I’m stuck, I'm stuck,
riding, riding, riding

Round and round like a horse on a carousel, we go,
will I catch up to love? I could never tell, I know,
chasing after you is like a fairytale, but I,
feel like I'm glued on tight to this carousel

Fifth Harmony members - Camila Cabello, Lauren Jauregui, Ally Brooke, Dinah Jane & Normani Kordei

Reflection release date - February 3rd, 2015.

SONG RATINGS:

Top Down - 10/10 - with a catchy chorus and continuous "Electric City" references, Top Down is by far one of the most energetic and fun songs on the album, that is split up with very equal parts for each band member.

Bo$$ - 8/10 - with many references to different leading and successful women in the industry, Bo$$ provides a strong empowerment and boost of confidence for all the women out there listening to this track.

Sledgehammer - 9/10 - written by the no.1 hit artist Meghan Trainor, Sledgehammer provides classic cliched romantic lyrics, that any young individual would see themselves listening to over and over again, possibly even relating to the song itself.

Worth It - 10/10 - this mature track features the rapping delights of Kid Ink, who provides a very catchy verse in between Beyonce style sections of the song. Worth It says goodbye to Fifth Harmony's old sweetheart lyrics and says hello to a brand new era of confidence.

This Is How We Roll - 9/10 - with a Will.i.am style beat dropping after each chorus, This Is How We Roll is the perfect club song for any dance music fan out there, who is ready to get up on their feet and start dancing the night away.

Everlasting Love - 10/10 with an Ariana Grande/Mariah Carey feel to the song, Everlasting Love is a classic enchanting pop ballad, that hearts will instantaneously fall in love with the second they hear it playing.

Like Mariah - 10/10 - with sampling from Mariah Carey's "Always Be My Baby" and written with assistance by the star herself, Like Mariah is the real deal for a future number 1 hit! Featuring a well put together rap by Tyga near the end of the song, Fifth Harmony show off all they have with powerful notes and gorgeous melodic whistle tones.

Them Girls Be Like - 7/10 - reminiscing a similar style of classic Fifth Harmony with their hit song "Me & My Girls", Them Girls Be Like provides a sassy and fun song packed right into the middle of the album, with lyrics that 99.9% of teenage girls could pretty much say they relate to in some way.

Reflection - 10/10 - what could be seen as an anthem for girls for the entire next century, Reflection provides a sassy lyrical masterpiece, in which the girls trick an "angelic" and "sexy" man into thinking he's the full package, when really, the girls have it all. Fifth Harmony once again stand up for strong female empowerment and confidence, topping it all off within this one song that is also the albums successful title.

Suga Mama - 8/10 - another hit song written by the one and only Meghan Trainor, Suga Mama provides yet another sassy output towards the album. With a confident storyline that details in Fifth Harmony standing up for themselves within a relationship that is going nowhere fast, 5H say they can't be your "Suga Mama" if the boy doesn't start to make a change.

We Know - 7/10 - with a slight twist, We Know provides a calm and melodic sound to the album. With very little features of a beat included, the strong lyrical content leaves you with shivers down your spine from the different focused vocals heard throughout.

Going Nowhere - 9/10 - with another hit beat produced by DJ Flint, Going Nowhere adds in to the fitting theme of women empowerment over men within the album. This song provides another sassy lyrical story, that features a strong, catchy chorus, and beautifully layered harmonization throughout.

Body Rock - 8/10 - with another successful club beat for the album, Body Rock is a perfect example of an ear grabbing dance track. With repetitive verses and choruses throughout, this song is bound to stay stuck in your head for a very long time.

Brave Honest Beautiful - 10/10 - written and featuring the delightful vocals of Meghan Trainor, Brave Honest Beautiful is the song to inspire women of all ages for the rest of their lives. Promoting confidence, fearlessness, empowerment and beauty, this song is bound to enlighten the hearts of millions, potentially giving them a boost of happiness inside that will never leave once they hear it.

Bo$$ - Track 2

Favourite Song Of The Week

The 1975 - Menswear



Lyrics:

"Well I only brought 3, what you lookin' at me for?"
She's dressed in white and putting off crying.

"Well you're the best man, so what's the plan?
Why don't you talk to Matty about it?"

I said, "I only brought 3 like I told you before,
We're gonna have to ask about."

Free bar, that's the point.
Spilling Amaretto 'cause of previous joints.
I'm sitting with a girl, fortunate placing.
Preceding railing racket off a porcelain basin.
Who's he? Giving it the lips?
I've never seen him knockin' about.
He looks just like me, but 6 foot 3,
So I reckon you could knock him out.

"Well, I think I'll say a couple of words if you don't mind...
I never really got on with your bird the first time
I met her out, dressed in nowt, telling everybody you were shagging about."

Well, who's this? Going for the kiss,
I'm probably gonna yosh in your mouth.
Because it's 5 past 3, I can hardly see and I'm on the verge of passing out.

Favourite Song Of The Week

Selena Gomez - The Heart Wants What It Wants


Lyrics:

You got me sippin' on something
I can't compare to nothing
I've ever known, I'm hoping
That after this fever I'll survive
I know I'm acting a bit crazy
Strung out, a little bit hazy
Hand over heart, I'm praying
That I'm gonna make it out alive

The bed's getting cold and you're not here
The future that we hold is so unclear
But I'm not alive until you call
And I'll bet the odds against it all
Save your advice 'cause I won't hear
You might be right but I don't care
There's a million reasons why I should give you up
But the heart wants what it wants
The heart wants what it wants

You got me scattered in pieces
Shining like stars and screaming
Lighting me up like Venus
But then you disappear and make me wait
And every second's like torture
Hell over trip, no more so
Finding a way to let go
Baby, baby, no I can't escape

The bed's getting cold and you're not here
The future that we hold is so unclear
But I'm not alive until you call
And I'll bet the odds against it all
Save your advice 'cause I won't hear
You might be right but I don't care
There's a million reasons why I should give you up
But the heart wants what it wants
The heart wants what it wants [3x]

This is a modern fairytale
No happy endings
No wind in our sails
But I can't imagine a life without
Breathless moments
Breaking me down, down, down, down

The bed's getting cold and you're not here
The future that we hold is so unclear
But I'm not alive until you call
And I'll bet the odds against it all
Save your advice 'cause I won't hear
You might be right but I don't care
There's a million reasons why I should give you up
But the heart wants what it wants
The heart wants what it wants [3x]

The heart wants what it wants, baby
It wants what it wants, baby
It wants what it wants [2x]

Favourite Song Of The Week

Taylor Swift - Bad Blood



Lyrics:

'Cause baby now we got bad blood
You know it used to be mad love
So take a look what you've done
'Cause baby now we got bad blood

(Hey!) Now we got problems
And I don't think we can solve them
You made a really deep cut
And baby now we got bad blood
(Hey!) 

Did you have to do this?
I was thinking that you could be trusted
Did you have to ruin what was shining now it's all rusted
Did you have to hit me where I'm weak baby I couldn't breathe
I rubbed it in so deep
Salt in the wound like you're laughing right at me
Oh, it's so sad to think about the good times
You and I

'Cause baby now we got bad blood
You know it used to be mad love
So take a look at what you've done
'Cause baby now we got bad blood

(Hey!) Now we got problems
And I don't think we can solve them
You made a really deep cut
And baby now we got bad blood
(Hey!) 

Did you think we'd be fine?
Still got scars on my back from your knife
So don't think it's in the past
These kind of wounds they last and they last
Now did you think it all through?
All these things will catch up to you
And time can heal but this won't
So if you come in my way, just don't
Oh, it's so sad to think about the good times
You and I

'Cause baby now we got bad blood
You know it used to be mad love
So take a look at what you've done
'Cause baby now we got bad blood

(Hey!) Now we got problems
And I don't think we can solve them
You made a really deep cut
And baby now we got bad blood
(Hey!) 

Band-aids don't fix bullet holes
You say sorry just for show
You live like that, you live with ghosts (Ghosts)
Band-aids don't fix bullet holes (Hey!)
You say sorry just for show (Hey!)
You live like that, you live with ghosts (Hey!)
Hm, if you love like that blood runs bad

'Cause baby now we got bad blood
You know it used to be mad love
So take a look at what you've done
'Cause baby now we got bad blood

(Hey!) Now we got problems
And I don't think we can solve them (Think we can solve them)
You made a really deep cut
And baby now we got bad blood

('Cause now we got bad blood) 'Cause baby now we got bad blood
You know it used to be mad love
So take a look at what you've done (Look at what you've done)
'Cause baby now we got bad blood (Woah)
Now we got problems
And I don't think we can solve them
You made a really deep cut
And baby now we got bad blood (Hey!)

Bring Me The Horizon - Drown



Lyrics: 

[Verse:]
What doesn't kill you
Makes you wish you were dead
Got a hole in my soul growing deeper and deeper
And I can't take
One more moment of this silence
The loneliness is haunting me
And the weight of the world's getting harder to hold up

[Pre-Chorus:]
It comes in waves
I close my eyes
Hold my breath
And let it bury me
I'm not ok
And it's not all right
Won't you drain the lake
And bring me home again

[Chorus:]
Who will fix me now?
Dive in when I'm down?
Save me from myself
Don't let me drown
Who will make me fight?
Drag me out alive?
Save me from myself
Don't let me drown

[Verse 2:]
What doesn't destroy you
Leaves you broken instead
Got a hole in my soul growing deeper and deeper
And I can't take
One more moment of this silence
The loneliness is haunting me
And the weight of the worlds getting harder to hold up

[Pre-Chorus:]
It comes in waves
I close my eyes
Hold my breath
And let it bury me
I'm not ok
And it's not all right
Won't you drain the lake
And bring me home again

[Chorus:]
Who will fix me now?
Dive in when I'm down?
Save me from myself
Don't let me drown
Who will make me fight?
Drag me out alive?
Save me from myself
Don't let me drown

[Bridge:]
You know that I can't do this on my own
Who will fix me now
Who will fix me now

[Outro:]
Who will fix me now?
Dive in when I'm down?
Save me from myself
Don't let me drown

'Bout that bass, no treble

And all the right junk in all the right places

'Cause every inch of you is perfect
From the bottom to the top

Yeah, my mama she told me don't worry about your size

You know I won't be no stick figure silicone Barbie doll
So if that's what you're into then go ahead and move along

Go ahead and tell them skinny bitches that
No I'm just playing. I know you think you're fat
But I'm here to tell ya
