Just Talking About "Lucky People" By Waterparks

Consider this a kinda review of a song. Today, I'm talking about "Lucky People" by Waterparks which is becoming one of my favorite songs of all time.
I've been listening to "Lucky People" a lot lately. I wrote about the song on my kinda review of Waterparks' album, Entertainment. And I still very much love the song. If anything I love it more now than when I first got into the band and when I wrote the kinds review post.

In the post I wrote:
I love everything about the music video. I love everything about this song. On my Waterparks post, I said this was my favorite song at the time. It's such a cute song. Do you need a cute love song to send to your significant other? Send this. It's my most played song off the album. I don't plan on getting married, but if it ever happens, catch this being the song I dance to at my wedding with my future spouse. Just saying. That is how much I love this song. It's from the point of view of a person who is in love and happy. My favorite line in the whole song that is repeated constantly is "Let's keep each other safe from the world". It's just so cute and lovely. In the chorus "Happy birthday, Merry Christmas / To the one I call my missus" is believed to parallel a line from "Gloom Boys" that goes "Birthdays and Christmas are not on my wishlist". The person in love now has a reason to look forward to birthdays and Christmas and now welcomes the holidays. The lines "My hourglass is in your hands / You've got my time, you are my plans" is the person in love explaining that everything for them revolves around the someone they are in love with. It also implies that they plan to be with this person in the future. Again, I say this song is so cute. For me, it's the perfect love song. The acoustic guitar and simplicity of the song just warm my heart. The song is just a boy, his guitar and his heart. Let me tell you, I watched a sunset while drinking tea and listening to this song on repeat and that was probably the most beautiful moment of my entire life thus far.
I still love everything about the music video. I still love everything about the song. And I still say that if I ever get married it will be the song my spouse and I dance to.

It's such a simple song, but it's just a wonderful song. The simple acoustic guitar and Awsten Knight's vocals help it hold that lovely cute aesthetic.

I still say it is the perfect love song. And I have listened to a lot of love songs.

I am a person who - even though I'm young and have barely lived life - has sworn off love because I've never seen a happy couple in my vicinity. Everyone's pretty miserable. But this song makes me want to fall in love.

After seeing the song performed live, I'm seeing it in a whole nother light. Obviously, most fans know the situation surrounding who the song was written for. I won't get into it. At the show, I went to Awsten dedicated the song to a future, someone, that he falls in love with. It was very cute.

The song was already a pick-me-up for me, and I still listen to it when I just need to chill. Even this past Sunday, I was having a really bad time with my anxiety and I just put my headphones on and had the song on repeat and it put me at ease.

I didn't want to make this post too long. I've been running out of ideas for posts and my motivation is slowly dying, but we are almost done with November!

I don't think I am going to post much in December. I may take a break and come back stronger in 2019.

Why Blue is the Real Villain of Blue's Big City Adventure

Okay, so maybe "villain" isn't the right word. Blue is more like the antagonist. This post is about the Blues' Clues & You movie Blue's Big City Adventure. So there will be spoilers. If you have Paramount+, it's only an hour watch. I promise it is worth the watch if you have watched Blue's Clues in any capacity. Blue's Big City Adventure poster If you were born in the 90s or early 2000s like me then you most likely watched the original Blue's Clues show hosted by either Steve (Steve Burns) or Joe (Donovan Patton). I have an older and a younger brother, so I got to experience both. However, MY host was Steve, and I am a Steve fan til the day I die. I have Blue's Clues & You playing in the background as I write this post because I realized I haven't watched a single episode of the new series despite watching the movie 6 times. I cannot stress enough how much I love Blue's new design. She looks so much fluffier. The original Blue...

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...

That Time Rod Stewart Found Other Ways of Doing Cocaine

 Heyo! Happy Monday! This week's That Time... is a doozy. If you're a classic rock fan or a fan of Rod Stewart, you probably know exactly what this post is about. This one is a short one, but an interesting one. So bear with me. Of course need to put a warning about drug use. There are plenty of other posts that you are more than welcome to check out if this isn't your thing. If you are unfamiliar with Rod Stewart, let me introduce you to the ICON! He's a rockstar who also has a few pop bangers. I grew up with his music and can't remember a time in my life without his music. The first song I think of when he pops into my head is "Do Ya Think I'm Sexy?" . I know it's the most basic song of his, but I have fond memories listening to the song on the radio when I was a kid. He's also dabbled in a few bands, but I am more familiar with his solo work than his bands. Though check out his band, Faces. In 2012, Rod released his autobiography, Rod: The A...
