There’s really no better feeling than listening to a song in which the lyrics inspire you, relate to you, or just make you think ‘they are some lovely lyrics’. Being the poetry of the music world, and seeing as I can apparently remember hundreds of song lyrics yet absolutely nothing that I’ve learned in uni, I’ve decided to run down my top 10 favourite song lyrics, hoping that it gives my readers inspiration to think of their favourite lyrics, and perhaps get into some of the songs that I’m about to mention (all brilliant songs - obviously). 1.           “I just want to love you in my own language”                           - 3WW, alt - J Undoubtedly the highlight of the band’s third album Relaxer, 3WW is a tender, loving tune with relaxing melodies and beautifully innocent lyrics. This particular line, repeated throughout the song, stands out to me because of its ability to capture the...

Last week marked the time I added piercings 9, 10 and 11 to myself - next time I go through airport security I think I’ll be having some issues lol. Because I’ve managed to collate such a collection over the past year I thought it’d be a useful topic to chat about on here. I know that when I have an idea for a new piercing, I often turn to blogs and YouTube videos of people who already have it, as to learn from their experience and see if it’s worth it. Therefore, if my pearls of piercing wisdom can help at least one person add a new metal friend to their body, then it was worth it.

2017 was a turbulent year for me, but one thing that will always have the ability to change my mood is listening to my favourite music of the moment. I owe a lot to the bands I am about to mention for never failing to put a smile on my face, whether that be on my treacherous walk to uni, or a helpful aid while I’m losing the will to live in the library. Thank goodness for music eh. London Grammar  There’s not much that Hannah Reid’s ethereal voice cannot solve. This band and their albums of dreamy tunes can do nothing but chill me out, no matter what kind of day it’s been. Their second album in particular, which was released this year much to my delight, treats the ears with track after track of loveliness, with Reid’s quiet musings on love and life making you think deeper about everything going on around you. Honourable mentions of specific tracks have to be ‘Oh Woman Oh Man’, ‘Non Believer’ and ‘Everyone Else’ from the Truth Is A Beautiful Thing album, whilst old schoo...
