The popular 30's hit musical has landed in Sydney and thanks to Nuffnang we were able to catch a sneaky show.
97d0d587de76b346fa01c1fe6564c41c1110e6dee4fb3ba38c
If you're into a light and easy night with a few laughs and some great song's you'll sing out loud in the car home.
It's the musical renown for the hit songs 'Anything Goes', 'You're the top' and 'I get a kick out of you'. With a gorgeous cast this time around including the gorgeous Caroline O'Connor, who absolutely owned the stage and hit every note perfectly. Other cast members such as Todd McKenny (who can actually dance, really well !) and Claire Lyon taking a break from her role as Christine Daae.
This was my Outfit of the Night that evening and the beautiful opera house made for a gorgeous setting.
There were give aways of Cadbury's new Coco, they were delish!
I'd highly recommend to come here for a great night out with a few friends or family, stop by the Opera Bar before hand to get a quality bite to eat or for some pre show cocktails. I couldn't take any photos of the show itself so I think you'll just have to go see it yourself to see just how creative they were with the set and all the costuming.
I'd like to Thank Nuffnang and Anything Goes for giving me the opportunity to see this fantastic show.

Or Nah (Remix Feat Ty Dolla $ign & Wiz Khalifa) - The Weeknd
Latch (Acoustic) - Sam Smith
Arrows feat Macklemore - Fences
To start is a couple of the current sexiest songs for me right now.
The Weeknd with his smooth voice just kills it in Or Nah and Ride is just a blast from the past that you just want to grind up to someone to. There's not a whole heap to say about these first few songs but that.
Latch was a song that really caught my heart when I heard Josh Golden and Andrew Garcia's cover but once I heard the original acoustic, it really hits it hard.
It's a sweet song that really sums up a good moment between yourself and your lover, one of those songs where it all just fits into place.
Lastly is a song that I think suits the warming weather, a great beat and message that I can just imagine going roadtripping or adventuring to this song.
Macklemore is always a great summer singer and he's always on my summer playlist.
Hope your week is treating you all well
Let me know what your Summer tracks are

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.

Hope you enjoy this, let me know what you think and let me know if you have any suggestions Simple Things - Miguel Beyonce- Mitch and Scott Love of My Life - Justin Timberlake Hello diamonds hope your last couple of weeks went well. This playlist has been mulling over my mind for a while and I couldn't quite figure out what I was listening to lately. Apart from Josh Golden's stunning looks and Andrew Garcia's voice like heaven, the two make a killer combo in turning a pop song into a sentimental smooth sound. I immediately fell in love with this cover, I found that simple piano and their voices really bring a lot more light to the lyric and really make them shine. Miguel is one of those singers that I don't really know much about but every time i listen to more of his stuff I realize I love all of it. Simple thiings is a great little song expressing that a lot of the time we don't want anything but the simple things to just lie with you and just be with you. Next is Beyonce by Mitch and Scott of Pentatonix/Superfruit. Oh my goodness acapella always amazes me but these two have just left me in awe, whether on their own or with the rest of Pentatonixx. With their innate love for Beyonce they went beyond your average youtube music artist and covered the whole album! This is absolutely amazing and their vocal range leaves me stunned. Lastly is not actually a titled song in the JT 2020 album, actually it's the interlude from Mirrors. Justin Timberlake makes amazing little interludes to the end of songs and in this case I actually like the interlude a lot more than the main song it's attached to. I got this song by itself because I found the length of the interlude makes a great little interlude to a playlist. Enjoy the week diamonds and let me know what you've been up to 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.

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.

Candles in the Sun - Miguel
Makin Good Love (Rendition by SoMo) - Avant
Hey guys So this week I decided to highlight a few of the slower songs that I've been listening to lately in the lead up to the start of the second semester and also the start of a new job! I also won't be seeing my favourite diamond next weekend (we only get to see each other once a week) because he's a boss and is going on a work trip. le sigh- Take On Me was an amazing song as the original but when I heard The Blanks do a cover at the concert last year in Sydney, it brought me to tears. This song has to be played at my wedding! We Can't Stop, the cover by some of the YTF boys is just the cutest song and that video clip is disturbingly accurate. But let's be honest girls, you can't help but gush at every pool scene that Chester See and Josh Golden have in that. I-pause-every-time *drool* Candles in the Sun is an interesting song, personally I love it but it can be a hit or miss with most people. Makin Good Love, this is the sexiest song I swear. Let me know any suggestions or what you think about these songs xx.
