Hello. If you are reading this, I am no longer blogging on this blog. But, there are almost 250 posts, so feel free to look through them. Even though it won't be new music, it'll still be good music. So . . . bye.
*This is 12/23/13. I changed the polls slightly so that you can vote until 1/1/24. That's almost ten years from now. I at least wanted any people who happened to be visiting to be able to vote. I didn't extend it any longer because this blog will either get deleted or aliens will cause mass chaos by deleting the internet or murdering that huge satellite in space. Thought you might want to know that my friend has a blog, and we are very alike. http://www.electricperspectivemusic.blogspot.com/ Yeah. Oh well. Yeah. This blog is kind of . . . dead. I guess this is goodbye. Again. Because it's a second goodbye, it's awkwarder, so there's no way to wrap this up. But I'm not a writer or anything, and this is the internet, so I can cut myself off midsentence and add three little dots afterwards . . .

This will possibly be the most detailed post I have ever made. It might be very long....so grab some popcorn and you'll soon understand why I love this song. I have talked about this song before, and every single time I listen to it, I feel very happy and press repeat about four times until my cat walks in front of the computer screen and tells me to stop. I am going to completely dissect this song and show you why it's awesome....so watch out. Let's list some reasons why it is the best song in the entire universe and see how many reasons we end up with. *Also, play the video below while you read the reasons. I added the video to make it convenient.
Good lyrics.
Lyrics that make you think.
The lead singer's voice.
The rhythm.
The chord progressions on the guitars.
The soft drum beat at the beginning of the song.
Up until 0:12, the way you can just feel something awesome about to come.
The scream that fades away, it's around 0:13
The way the instruments come together perfectly, starting at 0:14
0:24, when the singing begins and the guitars die down just a little bit
At 0:25, you can start to hear the chord progressions changing. It accompanies the singing in a perfect way. It doesn't match the singing, but it's just....perfect.
0:35....the singing is just perfect
At about 0:38 you can hear a high pitched sound that adds to the intensity of the song.
At 0:40, you can hear a weird noise in the background which adds to the awesomeness.
The verse blends smoothly into the chorus, which starts at 0:46.
The singing during the chorus is perfect.
1:08....just perfection
The verse starts up smoothly again.
1:33...the chorus just comes in at the perfect time.
1:54, let's just say that I think the transitions are perfect. In this song, every word and note blends smoothly into the next. It doesn't sound forced.
The little scream at 2:06.
The guitar solo that starts at 2:14 and all of the music leading up to the that.
2:25
All of the oohs
The entire guitar solo
The singing at 2:45
The singing at 2:52
3:03, another perfect transition
3:15
The end of the song, which is my least favorite part, because the song ends, but I feel like they closed it nicely.
There. I gave 30 reasons why this song is awesome.
Okay, I have a feeling that I will soon become obsessed with this band, so I'm going to go ahead and make a post about them, just 1 solid post for now to save your time. Also, if you like My Chemical Romance, you'll really like this band. Let's list some reasons why this band is amazing from the 3-4 songs I've heard by them.
Woah. The lead singer has a unique, strange voice that sounds like a perfect mix of Gerard Way, Kellin Quinn, Billie Joe Armstrong, Jaybee (Her Bright Skies), and someone from Escape the Fate
The harmonies. If you listen to their song Creatures, just listen to the singing and it's like OH MY GOSH THAT WAS AMAZING
The guitar riffs. Just....wow.....
Their song Do You Get What You Pray For, listen to the first 23 seconds and try to not become addicted to the song
They are awesome in my opinion, which means they are awesome. I mean, you're reading this, so you obviously care just a little bit about my opinion
Now I'll just show all of the songs I listened to, because they're all amazing, and I'll even comment on them. Notice how most of the time I just list the songs. Wow. We're changing things up.
Do You Get What You Pray For: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bcc48UH7_0E HOLY CRUDMUFFINS. I felt like a long, unnecessary capitalized word was necessary. But if you read the reasons why this band is awesome, then holy crudmuffins, I know. Uwrr....for some reason I just imagined what a crudmuffin would taste like.... But anyway, the guitar riffs are awesome, the singing was phenomenal, and the entire song was just completely epic.
Love Will Eat You Alive: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ZaWCaBEoWg I've talked about this in a previous post and everything I said was true. I absolutely love this song and band, you don't know how much I love it.
Blood is Sharp: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1NQd4jha7tQ This is their most popular video, and it's awesome. In fact, I think the genre of music that they play should just be renamed to awesome. Because it's awesome.
Unleash the Sands of all Time: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8EgMkmS37zQ Holy crudmuffins...ohmygoshthissongisamazing..... I like it because there are some screams in there, and it's awesome like the rest of their songs. And because iftlsa......not telling you what that means......
Vesuvius: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x229ctyy83M They have to stop making music that is so mind-blowing amazing that I just die...... I'm not going to bring a tumblr reference into here..... Still, amazing song, amazing band, amazing vocals, amazing instruments, amazing everything.
Paradox on Earth: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gtY9KqDRrEY I love this song for so many reasons. It sounds a little bit like Hey Jude by the Beatles. Just watch it and you'll understand which part of the song I'm talking about. Also, the harmonies, are just holy crudmuffins as I have explained before. Bands have to stop doing this to me...
Elysium: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w_wBreC88L4 I'll stop listing songs eventually. One day.... These guys are way too good to not have more recognition. Seriously? Their most popular video has 300,000 views, which is about 1/100 of what they deserve. But I guess it's better that they stay somewhat underground, or in a position where only their fans are listening to their music instead of internet trolls. That's why pop music is popular.
I'm not going to mention their acoustic performance of Creatures which absolutely gave me chills because it was so beautiful. I should stop now. I think 7 songs is enough for now. Okay, here's Creatures acoustic: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qQBpgp7pGIY
Okay...I'm going to go search for some money to buy a band T-Shirt...goodbye.... And sorry if some of this doesn't make sense. I'm not editing it. Ain't nobody got time for dat.
