Money on My Mind - Sam Smith Getting to Know You - SpazzKid I Can't Keep Up (Feat. Will Heard) - Tourist Clair De Lune (Motez Remix) Feat. Christine Hoberg - Flight Facilities Good day! How's your playlists looking lately? I hope your staying warm in bed with a nice tea and a scented candle on the side. First up is Money on My Mind which I heard repeatedly on the radio and only decided I liked it after I heard it after a ridiculous amount of times the radio engraved it into my system. Does anyone else have those songs ? It's a cute song considering at first I thought it was one of those "I don't care bout the girl just the green". Something about monetary value ruining things hits a soft spot for me for some reason I do understand it's important but sometimes i feel like it's overvalued so this song made me warm. Spazzkid's song came up when I was watching a Buzzfeed video on Japanese trends. The song reminds me of clouds and balloons, it's got that really light feel that Owl City used to have in it's early days and it's a good mind clearing song. Think of blue skies and running around. I'm made of star - That line is my absolute favorite. I'm obsessed with stars. I digress. I don't know what exactly this song means but it sends me the idea of just wanting to keep going and keep pursuing but just needing that extra push. When you can't quite keep up and you just need that hand. Clair De Lune, and not the one you think. This is another one of my background/driving songs that I like to pop on if I don't exactly want to pay much attention to the world and kinda just zone into what I'm doing. It's sort of monotonous and not outstanding but just one of those nice background songs if your feeling productive. Happy Monday! xx.

Move On - Garden City Movement Settle Down (Young Ruffian Remix) - 1975 Undress U - Giraffage Habits of My Heart (Sufjan Stevens Remake) - Jaymes Young As you can probably tell, I've been listening to Majestic Casual's channel quite a bit lately :) These tunes are a little more on the smoother chill step side of life. Something good to listen to when you're driving or if you're out having an afternoon chill outside. Move On is a lovely relaxing little song that goes really well with tea and an empty agenda for the day. It reminds me of watching cars from a balcony at dusk in the city. It's the type of song you clear your mind to and just absorb the atmosphere. I'm not the biggest fan of The 1975, they're kind of take or leave for me. The Young Ruffian remix of this however is so appealing to me for some reason. It slows the song right down and throws away that pop feel to the song and adds a bit of bass giving it that rnb feel. I really love this remix because it reminds me Bone Thug n Harmony for some reason and I just really love that beat throughout the track. Undress U really took a while to grow on me but it did eventually, it's a slow start and it's a little different with the vocals. Once you listen to it a couple of times it turns out to be a really chilled and relaxing song. Lastly Habits of my Heart. I really really love this song cos of the beat that resonates within it, it's a really simple song with clear lyrics it's really just easy listening. Enjoy your week guys! xx.

Hope you enjoy this, let me know what you think and let me know if you have any suggestions Raindrops - Cillo Put It - ShloMo Stay High - Tove Lo (Habits Remix) Feat. Hippie Sabotage https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=imQetBAjlJ8 (blogger won't upload the video so here's the link) Kiss Me - Ed Sheeran (Jude Woodhead Remix) Hey everyone! Hope you all enjoyed your last couple of long weekends over the easter break and Anzac weekend! Lately I've been falling back into the 'chillstep' kind of music, I find it relaxing and perfect for sitting at home or long drives. It's usually got a good beat and heavy bass that can hold a good atmosphere without demanding too much attention. First song up is Raindrops by Cillo, a slow instrumental song that reminds me of either long windy drives in the coast or reading on a rainy day. I feel like so much time passes while this song is on and for some reason I feel like a montage should be on whenever this song comes up. First song I heard from Shlomo was "Do you right" and I was absolutely obsessed with that song. When I heard Put It I could definitely feel the same vibe from "Do you right" radiating from it. It's a great song a lot more relaxing and I'm definitely going to invest a little more time in listening to a bit more of his stuff. Stay High showed up on my pandora one afternoon drive and I actually had to pull over just to save the details of this song so I could grab it later! It's got a heavy bass and I'm absolutely obsessed with listening to it in the car! Lastly I may have had Ed Sheeran's original Kiss Me on a music monday a while back, I find the song very sensual and at the same time a little sad for some reason. Alas there is a remix and I'm always belting this song out whenever it's on. I think the added beat adds a little more drama and 'oomph' to the song. What have you guys been listening to lately? xx.

Music Monday is my series of favourite music or amazing diamonds that I've found during the week. I'll try as much as I can to post consistently however I can't entirely promise every monday every time.Hope you enjoy this, let me know what you think and let me know if you have any suggestions Rude - Magic Lullaby - Chester See Let it Go/Let her go - Sam Tsui Runaway - Jheane Aiko x The Weeknd x Frank Ocean Hey guys, hope your week has been aurally appealing this week! Hope you've enjoyed the recent weekend and valentines day past, this weeks music is a compilation of some sweet songs to brighten up the rest of your week. Let's not restrict the love to just one day of the year :) I heard Magic's song on the radio recently this year and felt like it was a massive blast from the past listening to reggae style music! It's a sweet and fun song that makes you want to dance or sip on a cocktail on the beach and just listen and sway to the beat. Every time this song comes on I really can't help but sing. Poor guy, hope he marries the girl :) Chester See has re-done his amazing little song 'Lullaby' to the sound of a Ukelele, just relaxing on his bed singing an amazing song. His slow written song and rustic voice, really is a lovely little lullaby that you want to fall asleep to. Sam Tsui is a new youtuber that I stumbled upon while listening to some frozen covers. I completely forgot about the Let her go song and i was a little sceptical about how the combination would be. I was pleasantly surprised on how well he managed to combine the two songs together. Lastly is a mash up of Jhene Aiko, The weeknd and Frank Ocean. Jheane Aiko is absolutely amazing, she has such a wonderful voice which is filled with emotional depth. They mixed one of my favorite Frank Ocean songs 'Acura Integurl' so I instantly fell in love with this as the rift came in. Hope you guys had a great weekend and a good week up ahead :) xx.

I'll try as much as I can to post consistently however I can't entirely promise every monday every time.Hope you enjoy this, let me know what you think and let me know if you have any suggestions. So guys this week is a little different, I've got double the amount of videos because I wanted to emphasize that although there are some amazing covers out there the same talent can create beautiful songs. Chester See Madness (Muse Cover) Chester See was the first youtube musician that I found at around 16/17. I'm pretty sure the reason why I subscribed to him was the same reason that every other gushing girl subscribed to him. But despite that charm, that smile and that unbelievable body, he is just bursting with talent. His voice, although a little bit husky, is strong and versatile to any genre of song and his amazing piano and song writing skills are just amazing. Andrew Garcia Andrew Garcia was someone I floated around, I always heard him featuring in Chesters songs but never got around to subscribing to him. The day I finally did though I was completely blown away. Andrew literally has the voice of an angel, you know that line in step brothers where John C Reily says, "Your voice is like Fergie mixed with Jesus", that was exactly my reaction he is actually amazing. His vocal range is just infinite and has so much power to stab you right in the heart to take your breath away. Andy Lange . Andy Lange, working both with Chester See and Andrew Garcia is one of the best producers youtube has ever seen. Multi-talented to say the least, Andy Lange is very much the most creative producers ever! Also having a voice of his own and his own strong musical input Andy just can't keep his hands away from talent that he can mould and recreate to a beautiful sound. The Piano Guys What Makes You Beautiful (One Direction Cover, CLICK IT IT'S ACTUALLY REALLY GOOD) All of Me (Jon Schmidt Original) The Piano Guys, a little different and steering away from vocal talent. These guys are insane. They seriously are, how they think of making music out of a whole piano is just amazing, they manage to turn any song into something you want to shove into a wedding. They're talent is so raw and beautiful it sometimes brings me to tears, if this is what they sound like on the internet they would be absolutely amazing in person. These guys are just so amazing, they're any musician's inspiration. So that's this week guys, let me know if you have any favorite youtube musicians! xx.

All of Me - John Legend Sunny Days - Josh Raiden This Is Gospel - Panic at the Disco Decipher Reflections From Reality - PlayRadioPlay! ~~ Hey guys, so half of this music monday will be a little bit fruity and the other half a little bit heavy. First up on our list we've got one of John Legends new releases from his slow coming album, the song All of Me like a few of his other songs is very much based on your Significant other. The song is a little bit more fast paced than your usual 'love song' but it's filled with just as much love and emotion. The thing I love about this song is that he doesn't go on about how someone is super perfect but he just accepts the imperfections. Next we have Sunny Days a cover by Josh Raiden. If it sounds familiar and you swear it sounds just like... It is! It is the theme song from Sesame Street slowed down and acoustic, first heard on Scrubs in the Sesame Street special. It's actually quite sad when sung like this and a little bit lonely actually but it is still a nice song non-the-less. On to a different tone the new song by Panic at the Disco brings all the old memories and all the old love for Brendan Urie's amazing voice. The new direction of the previously 'Alternative' scene between both Panic and Fall Out Boy has definitely re-roped their old fans to an exciting new style. Speaking of 'old memories', Decipher Reflections From Reality brings me to nostalgia street in my mind. This number by PlayRadioPlay! was my absolute favorite song about 5 years ago, I used to listen to it on repeat. Even listening to it now I don't get that 'ugh why did I ever like this' cringe that I get when I look at old clothes that I used to wear, I get the "OMG I USED TO LOVE THIS SONG" feel. This song reminds me of summer and I think it's perfect to rekindle as the weather warms up again. Let me know what you guys used to love about 5 years ago and how you felt about nostalgic songs in the comments below Much love xx.
