Music Mondays

I am the type of person that has like 40 different Youtube playlists, because, as Im sure we all do, I become obsessed with certain songs and only want to listen to them over and over and over again untill I literally end up hating them. Why do we do this, who knows.
 
These are the songs I`m currently obsessed with :)
 
 
Tori Kelly - Nobody Love

I first heard Tori when she audtioned for American Idol when she was 16. She didn`t make it until the end, but continued to post YouTube videos of herself. Then I saw her again on Vine, where I believe she became more widely recognized. She finally has the fame she deserves, she is so naturally talented. I could listen to her sing all day.

 
 
Fifth Harmony - Worth It ft. Kid Ink
 
So Fifth Harmony makes this list twice because, come on, who doesnt love an empowering girl group full of hot and talented singers? I guarentee these two hits will be stuck in your head.
 
 
 
Fifth Harmony - BO$$
 
 
 
Ryn Weaver - Octahate
 
I personally am not really a fan of this music video, but her voice is magical and the beat is catchy!
 
 
 
Rihanna - Bitch Better Have My Money
 
This one is pretty obvious what it`s about... and it also has the power to make any white girl feel like a G. But doesn`t Rihanna always do that? There is no music video for it, but I really hope there will be cause I know RiRi will definitely kill it... like always.
 
 
 
Major Lazer & DJ Snake - Lean On (feat. MØ)
 
I personally have never heard of any of these artists before. I believe I came across this song on YouTubes ''recommended'' section, and fell in love with the catchy beat that you can`t help but move to.
 
 
 
David Guetta - Hey Mama (Official Video) ft Nicki Minaj, Bebe Rexha & Afrojack
 
At first when I heard this song, I thought the chorus was being sung by Rihanna, but it is actually the talented Bebe Rexha. You may not know her by name, but she actually co-wrote Eminem`s song ''The Monster'' and was featered on the song ''Take Me Home'' by Cash Cash. And I'm sure you are all familiar with David Guetta and Nicki Minaj!
  
 
 
Echosmith - Bright 
 
I have had this song stuck in my head for days. It is very taylor-swift-speak-now-era. Honestly, talking about it won`t even do it any justice, so just give it a listen!

Music Mondays

I am obsessed with YouTube covers and finding new artists I haven't heard of yet. I find that sometimes I like the cover better than the original song, or in some situations I never liked the original song, but the cover made me find an appreciation for the song. Anyways, you get the gist of it, so here are some of my favourite artists that I have discovered recently or over the years that I would like to share with you this week. To check out the video, just click the title of each song!


Alex G - Stay With Me (Sam Smith)
I have been following Alex G throughout her YouTube musical journey since the beginning and she never seems to fail me. She is extremely talented. I love this female version of the song, and the raw emotion she sings behind it.


Kina Grannis & Imaginary Future - Riptide (Vance Joy)
This one is a double whammy! But both artists are amazing and do a duet cover of this song so pleasantly, it feels like butterflies are dancing around in my ears.



Julia Sheer & Landon Austin - Everything Has Changed (Taylor Swift)
This one is another duo of talented YouTube Artists and it is perfection. Tell me they don't sing this song beautifully with a straight face. I'll never believe you. 



Alex Goot - Story Of My Life (One Direction)
In this cover, the talented Alex Goot plays the drums, electric guitar, bass guitar, acoustic guitar, piano, maracas, tambourine, and uses his hands to make certain beats. Need I say more? Seriously?



Louisa Wendorff - Blank Space // Style (Taylor Swift)
Louisa performs this mashup of a couple of Tay Swifts new songs with her friend Devin, and it is exactly the mashup you didn't know you wanted. It is perfection and I cannot... stop... listening...

Music Mondays

This monday I am sharing a video that I came across on Youtube. I love covers of songs and seeing what someone else can do with an artists music, how they can make it different in their own way and how talented some people are. The video I am sharing with you is by Alexis Hadefi doing a cover of Jon Gomm's song, PassionFlower. In his rendition, he changes it up by tuning the guitar while he is playing. Check out the video below, I guarantee you will get goosebumps just like I did!



Also, check out the original video by Jon Gomm
