Missed Songs

 



So here's a list of all the songs that I missed during my "break;



Let's start with Secular;


 Good Luck, Babe!- Chappell Roan

This is probably the most fun song I've heard all year. I like the retro vibe the song gives off and it works very well with the fluidity of Roan's voice. I don't really care enough to talk about the subject matter nor do I believe it is my place to speak on it. Overall, it is a very fun song.



 Birds Of A Feather- Billie Eilish

Billie Eilish is probably one of the weirdest artists in existence, and she continues to weird me out with this song. The reason I say that is because it is relatively light hearted, which is unusual for me to here a high-spirited song from her. The song itself is just......meh for me. I don't think it's bad, it's just not my cup of tea either (then again, I hate tea).




Worship;


 Up, Up, Up- Anthony Brown & group therAPy

This song has a lot going for it. The first being the harmonies, which are absolutely gorgeous (I'm a sucker for tight harmonies). The second being the message. It's been heard before, but it's very effective on this song. I would've liked the song even more if it elevated the harmonies just a little bit more than it did. Overall, this song is also just........meh



 Made For More- Josh Baldwin Ft. Jenn Johnson

This definitely sounds like a song my church would do. The song itself is fine. The main problem with it (as with most CCM songs) is that it's just too generic, hence the reason why I wouldn't look forward to singing it if my church ever does do it. The message is decent enough, just nothing special for me.



 Working For Me-Tamela Mann

I liked this song. Like pretty much always, Tamela sounds amazing and you can tell she means every word she's singing. My only complaint is that the opening banjo reminds me a little bit too much of Texas Hold 'Em (FIGHT ME!). But other than that, I actually liked this one. Tamela has done better, but I like it. 



 Somebody Like Me- Caleb & John Ft. Cain

To my surprise, I also strangely like this one too. It's incredibly joyful and the message works very well with the tone of the song. It's not perfect, but it's definitely a good song to bring your spirits up. And (like with harmonies), I'm a sucker for songs that get you pumped about Jesus, and this is definitely a good song for that.


Thanks for reading.

Discombobulated But Good

  I've always had an odd relationship with The Color Purple . I don't care enough to read the book, and some family of mine participated in a community production of the Broadway musical. I do like the original movie, but it's also EXTREMELY annoying due to some of it's subject matters. I saw the remake yesterday, and it of course centers on Celie Harris-Johnson and the struggles she's had throughout her life. The movie is all over the place in terms of it's writing, pacing, and it's music (and considering this was directed by the same idiot behind Black Is King,  I am not surprised). Don't get me wrong, it wasn't terrible. But there were times in the movie where I wanted more but got less, and in the times I wanted less, I got more than I would like. A lot of songs from the musical were cut in favor of new songs that weren't so great. The songs from the musical that stayed in the movie were arranged horribly. I also felt that the plot moved pret

Top 10 Signature Songs

  You know how an artists has that one song that pretty much defines their career and who they are as an artist? This is a list of those songs. Please keep in mind that just because an artist and their song is on the list doesn’t mean I like the song or the artist (especially the artist). It just means that I acknowledge the impact and importance of the song and/or artist. One song per artist. #10: The Real Slim Shady- Eminem Technically speaking, Lose Yourself is more notable than The Real Slim Shady . But I feel like this song really set the standard on who Eminem is as an artist. He pretty much hit the jackpot when coming up with such an iconic nickname, and Eminem presents it with so much personality, style, rhythm and aggression that it just works. I'm not even sure if it could have as much of an effect on people with someone else in the track. Only Eminem could make it work. Again I have nothing against Lose Yourself , in fact I love that song more than this one. But I feel

Deadpool: Marvel's Favorite Idiot

  Deadpool & Wolverine was probably the most anticipated movie of the year. With Disney taking over Fox and Deadpool joining the MCU , the time has finally come for the finishing result. Wade Wilson (portrayed of course by Ryan Reynolds) is offered to be taken out of his dimension in favor of the MCU. The only problem is his dimension is in the process of disintegration after the evens of Logan (😢) and Tom Wambsgans- I mean Mr. Paradox (Matthew Macfadyen) decides to end its misery and destroy it instead of waiting for the inevitable. Obviously this doesn't sit well with Wade, so he turns to a more incompetent version of Wolverine (one deemed the "worst" Wolverine) to help save his dimension.  This movie was exactly what a Deadpool movie needs to be, stupid as HELL. Deadpool remains an idiot and his dynamic with Wolverine was very well paced. Reynolds and Hugh Jackman's chemistry was very good and surprisingly very balanced. Both characters had their fair-share of
