My Reaction to Set It Off's New Song "Lonely Dance"

My history with Set It Off goes waaaay back. I have been a fan since the beginning. I can remember a time where a simple Google search of Set It Off didn't let me find them easily. I'll write a post about them obviously, but I've been a fan for a while.

Today, I'm talking about their newest song, "Lonely Dance". The song was released on Nov. 19. I'm a bit late but better late than never.
Since I can't insert the music video, enjoy this photo of the band.

I'll be honest. I fell off the bandwagon for a short time and I didn't actually listen to their last album until recently. I still supported them in spirit. Just stopped listening to them for a while, but I'm back and I still love them now as much as I loved them the first time I ever heard their music.

"Lonely Dance" was my welcome back song. I hadn't listened to them in over two years - no including the videos my best friend sent me from Warped - and I am so glad this is the song that brought me back.

It's such a good song. I love the horns in the song. I love the feel of the song. And of course, lead singer, Cody Carson's vocals are still as amazing. Not gonna lie, my middle school crush on him came back for a quick minute. I love his voice so much. Remembering when they were starting off and seeing them now, I am blown away. Their style has changed a little, but they're still good! I still very much love their new sound. I am so proud of them.

The overall sound of the new song is so good. The lyrics are catchy and relatable. I'm singing along as I type this post. Singing and typing is very hard.

The music video aesthetic is so nice. It takes place in a spaceship and all hell breaks loose when Cody come in contact with an alien demon thing. They have come a long way since their first few music videos.

This song makes me excited for their album that is being dropped in February. In time for my birthday. My best friend and I are trying to see them live in March. I'll keep you updated on that.

I cannot wait. Their next album, Midnight, comes out Feb. 1, 2019. I'll link their Spotify page here.

FUN FACT: I only started using Spotify because of Set It Off. I knew someone who was either their manager, booking agent or something. He worked with and knew the band and he told me that I could listen to them for free on Spotify and I have been using Spotify ever since.

I will be doing a Kinda Review when the album comes out. I am too excited for this album not to write about

What are your thoughts on "Lonely Dance"? Are you excited for Midnight? Let me know in the comments.

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...

Is Marvin from Falsettos Abusive? And Why is He Such an Easy Character to Hate?

Is Marvin abusive? Short answer: yes. Long answer: You've come to the right place. "I love my tight-knit family. I love the way they cook linguine." Let's get this out of the way, this blog, as all of my blog posts are, is 100% my opinion. Unless stated directly that it is fact, this is all what's going on in my mind. Thoughts from a fangirl, if you will. Also I have to use Spotify to link the songs, because the entire 2016 revival cast album is not on YouTube and I know the revival album better than the original albums. Also this post is going to be long because I'm actually going through actual lines from the musical. I am going to try to sprinkle some photos into this post. "Lovers come and lovers go." Listen to "Marvin Hits Trina" on Spotify. Let's start with the most obvious: Marvin hits Trina after learning that she's going to marry Mendel. Where can you find this scene? In "Marvin Hits Trina".

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...
