Music Picks of the Week

As I continue writing you will find out that I love music, I mean who doesn't? I am kind of nerdy when it comes to music though I read music blogs and Rolling Stone almost on the daily I am constantly trying to find new music and sounds. I thought it would be a fun idea at the end of every week to write about what songs I listened to throughout the week and highlight some standout releases from Friday. This week in music was a monumental one in my eyes some of my favorite artists that I had not heard from in a few years released new music. I was just a tad bit excited.. whoops.

My first pick of the week was Lorde's new album Melodrama I REPEAT LORDE'S NEW ALBUM! I love Lorde, Pure Heroine is still an album that I listen to quite frequently. This album is nothing close to a disappointment, it was all that I had expected it to be, great lyrics, great music and lets be real a great voice.

Standout Songs off the Album:

Green Light- Yes,  I had to include this it was the first single off the album and it is still a jam.  I turn it on while doing my makeup and just dance around. 

Perfect Places- This is another get up and dance song. The beat and lyrics just make you happy. 

Liability- This is one of the slower songs featured on the album. It is not too slow but the effect of the song is emotional but not too much. 

I had a very emotional Friday release day not only Lorde came back but George Ezra released his first single in years. I love George Ezra, at one point in high school I listened to Wanted on Voyage multiple times everyday. He just released Don't Matter Now. It is such a good summer song and is very different from his other songs. It still highlights his incredibly unique and deep voice but it is more pop.

Honorable Mention Releases

• Portugal the Man- Woodstock (one of my favorite artist, I have not been able to listen to the entire album yet hence why there are no standout songs yet. Maybe there will be a review later ;)
