Music!
» May 23, 2009 »
I like music which really isn’t cool.
I have Busted albums. I listen to Miley Cyrus and Avril Lavigne. I just can’t help it. It’s all so bubblegum and cheerful. You can rave around like a teenie and it’s almost okay.
Well, it’s not, but when you’ve got Miley telling you to ‘zig zag, step slide; lean in left, clap three times’… how can you resist? I feel the need to get up and do some line dancing.
My more redeeming favourite artists? Jamie T is awesome, Biffy Clyro are my new loves (’specially now Simon’s cut his hair. Who knew such an adorable face was hidden under all those curls?) and MGMT just won’t get out of my head.
I have an eclectic taste. Meat Loaf sits side by side with McFly; Aqua next to Arcade Fire; Marina & the Diamonds with Marilyn Manson; Basshunter and Bat for Lashes.
