"Baby, be the class clown..."

...I'll be the beauty queen in tears
It's a new art form showing people how little we care 
We're so happy even when we're smiling out of fear
Let's go down to the tennis court and talk it up like, yeah

The chorus of the Lorde song Tennis Court are going round my head for a few days now. Not only because of the lyrics. It's also about the beat. close your eyes while listening to this song and you gonna feel how it is taking you higher and higher. your mind will reach the sky. amazing lyrics, an amazing beat, an amazing voice... what's more? Lorde whose real name is Ella Yelich O'Connor comes from New Zealand. New Zealand is a 'cool' country with the kiwi birds and the citizens speaking with this beautiful accent - even better than British. so listen up! here comes Lorde.

this shrill strange voice would probably annoy me, but it doesn't. why? if you listen to her songs once you will understand. this young lady makes the words swim in the air and you don't know the way to his heart like she does :) there is nothing I could compare her music to. the only thing I know is Alex Winston is already one of my favourite musicians I discovered this year and probably one of the best I listened to so far (in my whole live). the timbre of her voice makes her doubtlessly unique. just listen! that's the best thing you can do to feel the same as I do (cause I am listening to her album right now).

'i dance like an ill fit'

this song makes me dance every time i am listening to it and forces me to play it over and over again. it makes me want to speak with a warm synthie effect.  something in this songs drives me crazy. i am angry about it because me live isn't like this song: fresh, catchy, fast but reflective at the same time. wave machines' latest single ignites the longing of a fulfilled life, the life you dreamed about as a child. it pushes you to start living it right now or at least dance like an ill fit.

music from the masses

One important issue of our times which involves me a much is the popularity of good music. It's all about pop music - sure thing, BUT why is the most popular pop music so poor? I mean not only that the lyric are all about the same, the singers can't really sing or that everything is based on "sex sales". The worst is there is no idea behind the song, the album or even behind the "artist". In the 21st century anyone can be a popstar because there's no much need of talent in the show businesses. Maybe this is a good solution - the talents doesn't get spoiled and produce on their own. This is called - indie music and the best example for that creative musicians aren't dead at all. I took the mission to make the unpopular - popular. To show my idea of good music to you.
I hope you will enjoy this journey through different music kinds.
