Barbie Girl ~ By Aqua
Hi Everyone!
so It's Veronica writing about probably one of the most famous or (infamous) songs; Barbie Girl ~ By the Scandinavian pop group Aqua. This song received a lot of attention from the media and public for not only it's very catchy pop tune, but also because of the obvious subtext behind it's lyrics. It was one of the first songs taking a stab at the preconceived idea of what an "attractive" women was suppose to look like, and how this unrealistic and sexually objectifying image was bestowed onto young girls. It really drove home how "blonde Bimbo Girls" were unfortunately seen as role models for young girls and how materialistic objectives resulted in you being treated like an object. I think it's pretty cool and smart how such a fun and upbeat song also has a more relevant and important message behind it. I really do encourage you to have a listen if will definitely put a smile on your face :-)

A Thousand Miles (Vanessa Carlton Cover) by Jeremy Passion & Andrew Garcia
It's Kai again! I just stumbled upon this cover of A Thousand Miles on YouTube. Jeremy Passion is one of my favorite YouTube artists that performs covers and makes his own originals. If you haven't checked out his channel just search up 'passionsf' on YouTube! Anyways, back to the topic, I usually associate A Thousand Miles as a comedic song that everyone sing at Karoke because EVERYONE knows this song. It's usually associated with the movie 'White Chicks' and hence isn't really a song that's taken seriously. However, this acoustic cover blows my mind. The lyrics suddenly mean something when sung and played by these two artist. It's guitar accompaniment is catchy and makes me want to jam along with them!

A Great Big World & Christina Aguilera - Say Something
.jpg)
Hey MusicHeads!It's Kai here. Today i'm going to jump out of my usual R&B songs and review a sad song. Usually i'm not depressed enough to repeatedly listen to a sad song, but Say Something seems to have just struck a chord with me. The song was originally released as a solo single in Axel's solo album ' This is the New year 2011' and only gained popularity after Christina Aguilera worked on the song. However, I don't think we should accredit the popularity of the song because Christina Aguilera was added. The song is great because of it's powerful lyrics and simple yet emotional composition. There is no doubt that Christina Aguilera also delivered the song powerfully. Her harmony seems to act as the response and adds so much meaning to the song ( as if they are talking to each other telling each other to say something). A great emotionally impacting song!
Broken~ Ft. Amy Lee & Seether
Hi MusicHeads!
So it's Veronica, and i am back to bring you a different kind of tune. Broken by Amy Lee and Seether is a bit of an old one first released in 2009, but good music is timeless. This song really draws on the heart strings with the rawness in their voices bringing out the listeners deeper feelings.
Listening to this song is kind of like walking through an empty field in the dead of winter (well at least that's what i picture). The thing i love most about it is that it has a story within the lyrics, it's amazing how it makes the listener relax and takes them on a journey at the same time. Please have a listen, this song is one of the greats. >>>>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hPC2Fp7IT7o

Dirty Pop ~ Nsync
Hey Everyone! Veronica here Hope you are liking our posts so far :)
This post is kind of an impulse one. I was going through my old iPod and one song that really brought me back was Nsync's Ditry Pop. Now this song packs a punch! It gets your heart racing from the first verse all the way to the last chorus. What I love about it was that this song was the top of pop back in the 2000's and it didn't need swearing and objectification to do so. It has a wicked upbeat and dramatic highs and lows that keeps the listener on their toes. They use harmony and synths perfectly to achieve an ever lasting track.
Do yourself a favour and listen to this golden oldie before pop got destroyed, in the link below
