My Reaction to Waterparks New Song, "[Reboot]"

My blog is becoming just a music blog. Welp. I listen to music more than anything else so its only right.

Yesterday, Waterparks dropped a new song called "[reboot]" and based off the overall reaction I thought I'd write about it.

I couldn't listen to it when it dropped because my dad just had hip surgery so I've had a lot on my plate recently. But I finally got to listen to it today and I have thoughts!

First off, if you're new to my blog I am a HUGE Waterparks fan. Got to see them last November and I have been keeping up with them since I became a fan last Summer. They quickly became one of my favorite bands. I wrote about them and their last album last year.

Anyway let's talk about their newest song. Its called "[Reboot]" and holy crap I am amazed. It is SO good. I absolutely love it with all my heart. Every song they have released off Fandom so far has been great. A real bop.

The pre-chorus is amazing. The flow is so good. Hands down its my favorite part of the song. I love how it's a bit different from their style but you can tell it's still Waterparks. The music is great. The lyrics are great. I think it's my favorite song that they have dropped so far. Tied with "Turbulent". I won't go into my interpretation of the lyrics as that will go in my Kinda Review of the album when it drops.

"[Reboot]" is a song I can play for my mom, which is great because when I was playong "Turbulent" around my house my mom hated it because of all the f-bombs. I'm waiting for the right time to play all the new songs for my mom. My dad already likes Waterparks, but my mom only listens to Jesus music so it takes time.

I can tell th tone and style of Fandom is goong to be so much different than the past albums and EPs, but I am so ready. What I really appreciate about this band is you can hear how they get better wity every EP and album. As time progresses they get better. The music playing. The song-writing. Even Awsten's vocals have gotten better since Airplane Conversations.

I've only been a fan for a little over a year but I can see and hear their improvement.

Sidenote: Awsten's hair is green for the album and for the record I have wanted to dye my hair green since before I became a Waterparks fan so if/when I do its not because of Awsten.

I am so excited for Fandom. It drops October 11th. Whi h is eleven months since I saw them live. I wish I could see them on this next tour but they're not performing anywhere near me.
The cover art is so good. I haven't been this excited for a new album since Pray for the Wicked and Trench last year.

That Time A President Conducted Meetings from the Toilet

Happy Monday! Another week ahead. This week's weird moment from history is how President Lyndon B. Johnson conducted meetings and interviews while on the toilet. I learned way too much about LBJ while doing research for this post and it is going to be a LONG time before I write another weird history post about him. But there will be at least another one in the future. Man was weird. Quick history lesson for my non-Americans who may not know who LBJ is. Lyndon Baines Johnson was the 36th President of the United States. He assumed the position following the assassination of John F. Kennedy. He was president from 1963 til 1969. NOW if you're like me and you grew up with the rewatching the movie Forrest Gump over and over again your first introduction to LBJ might be when Forrest was being honored with the Medal of Honor and showed the president where he was "shot in the buttocks" during the Vietnam War.  I haven't watched Forrest Gump in years, but if you haven't...

Fangirl Friday: Deleasa

 Heyo! Happy Friday! It's that time of the week when I ramble about someone I love! Today's subject is DJ and producer, Deleasa. His name is Mike Deleasa and while I normally refer to my subjects by first name in these posts, I will be referring to him by his stage name, Deleasa. NOW to understand how I became a fan of Deleasa, we have to go all the way back to 2012, when Kevin and Danielle Jonas' reality show, Married to Jonas  premiered. I bet you're wondering what does this guy have to do with the Jonas Brothers? Deleasa is actually Danielle's brother, making him Kevin's brother-in-law. He was featured in the reality show and I ended up falling in love with him. He was actually my parasocial "rebound" from Joe. You can read all about my parasocial breakup with Joe in my Fangirl Friday about him . But enough about the Jonas Brothers. That's not why we're here. Plus I've already written 30k words about them on this blog. However, I am for...

Zac Efron and Garrett Clayton are Basically the Same Person

I, a 21-year-old adult, is still a HUGE fan of the High School Musical franchise. In high school, had I been a better planner, I would have asked Lucas Grabeel to be my prom date. And even though I was older than most viewers, I did love Teen Beach Movie when it came out. In this post, I am going to explain how Zac Efron and Garrett Clayton are basically the same person. Let's start at the beginning. You may know Zac Efron as Troy Bolton in the Disney Channel Original Movie (or DCOM), High School Musical and it's franchise. He is the attractive blue-eyed, protagonist of all three HSM movies. And I will admit that I was a huge fangirl for him in my youth. Honestly, now I can't stand him. But that's for another post. Zac portrayed Troy in all three HSM films, but he only sang in the last two. That's right. Zac Efron did not sing in the first HSM movie. That was the amazingly talented Drew Seeley whom I will love till the day I die. Similarly, Garrett Clayton pl...
