I've been listening to these two songs a lot this week. There's not much to say about them. Just listen :)
1. Someone Like You - The Summer Set
It's just a really upbeat happy song. I love it :)
2. Fever Dream - Iron & Wine
Jared's brother played this on the guitar last week and I remembered how much I love this song. It's just calm and peaceful. Still. I listen to it a lot before I fall asleep.
Just another reason why I love Mondays. I get to write about some of my favorite songs! :)
This weeks number one spot goes to:
1. World of Our Own - Westlife
I always listen to this song when it's one of those days where I'm in a super good mood and just want happy music. This is a song about when you're in a relationship with someone and you trust them, you're best friends, and you're in your own little world :) If you don't already know who Westlife is, they are basically the British version of the Backstreet Boys. I kind of love them. Just kidding that's an understatement. I'm kind of obsessed.
Moving on.
2. Perfect For Me - Ron Pope
This song is about that feeling of loving someone so much, and knowing that no one is perfect. But this person is perfect for you. My favorite lyrics are,
"And I know you too well to say you're perfect
But you'll see, oh my sweet love, you're perfect for me"
Last but not least....
3. Faith to Fall Back On - Hunter Hayes
First off, if you don't know who Hunter Hayes is, go look him up. He's an amazing new artist.
This song is perfect for MG's, or just anyone who is wondering where life will take them. It's about having faith that no matter what happens, everything will end up the way it's supposed to be. In addition, it also is about getting answers that weren't what you were expecting. But as long as you have faith to fall back on, you'll always be ok :) I've loved this song recently and hope you guys love it too :) My favorite lyrics: "These days I’m not sure if I know What I’m doing here or where I’ll go But, every night I say the same old prayer:
“God, I don’t have to see you. I know that you’re there. Cause there were times I thought I wouldn’t make it home But I kept a little faith to fall back on. Yeah, and I’ve learned to put my trust where it belongsAnd I’ve gotta little faith to fall back on.” SUCH a good song :) That's it for todays Music Monday :) Thanks for reading/listening! Let me know if you enjoyed any of the songs :)
I'm obsessed with music, new and old, any genre. But mostly country/pop/indie/oldies.
I'm going to start posting my favorite songs that have either just come out, or ones I've just been loving that week.
This weeks winners are:
1. We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together - Taylor Swift
(There is no video on youtube with the actual song, at the normal speed, so this is what we've got)
This song was released today and I'm already obsessed. It's different from Taylor's usual stuff, but after listening to it a couple times, I'm sure you'll be just as obsessed as I am. But then again, I'm a Taylor Swift fan for life and will always like her stuff.
2. Loving You Tonight - Andrew Allen
This song sounds like a jazzy puppy love song :) It's adorable and I don't know why more people don't know about Andrew Allen. Look him up, his stuff is good :)
This boy right here. Him in his glasses. He makes me crazier about him every day :)
<3
It's just the little things that happen every day. The way that he always texts me saying,
"Good morning beautiful! :)"
Or the way he looks at me and I can tell me loves me without even having to say anything.
<3
Today I visited his ward because him and his brothers were doing a musical number. I'd gone to church with him in Hawaii but this was the first time in Utah. Church has always been a huge part of my life and I just loved being able to share that experience with the person I love. I was trying to be all reverent when Jared looks at me and motions his hand towards me. His family isn't a big fan of PDA so I shook my head no. He continued to stare at me with his smile that says, "Seriously Desiree? Come on" :) So I gave in and grabbed his hand. One thing I love about him. He ALWAYS wants to be close to me. Even simple little things like holding hands. We hold hands when he drives, when we're in church, sometimes when we were class, when we're shopping, and just all the time. He kisses me on the forehead and I kiss him on the cheek. He randomly picks me up and spins me around. We dance all the time. There's hardly ever music, but we like it that way :) I love all of that so much more than just making out. It means more :)
We've been together for 4 months now. I know, I know, that's a super short amount of time. But time is just that. Time. It feels like it's been forever :)
I never know what to write about mine and Jared's relationship because every time I try, it comes out like a cheesy fairytale story. But then again, I'm sure that's just because we've only been dating for 3 months. Seriously though, Not only am I in love with him, but I'm in love with our relationship, and who I am when I'm with him.
In the words of Taylor Swift, "I don't try to hide my tears, the secrets or my deepest fears. Through it all nobody gets me like you do. And I'm only me when I'm with you."
I don't have to pretend to be anybody but me when I'm with him. He accepts me 100% for who I am. I can do the DUMBEST and STUPIDEST things around him and never get embarrassed.
For example, sometimes I get really really really hyper due to sugar. I'll start laughing hilariously at absolutely nothing. Sometimes I even start drooling. Haha, yeah. And sometimes even when we're with his friends, I randomly bite him, or kiss him. But does he ever tell me to stop? No :) he plays along. Or sometimes late at night I'll be like, "Hey Jared! I have a lot of energy! Let's go run around outside!" We'll then bolt out the door and run down the middle of the road until we see cars coming. We'll see how many times we can jaywalk (run) before we get to the beach. Even if he doesn't have as much energy as me, he goes along with it :)
We even do cheesy romantic things like they do in the movies :)
I'll be at the beach waiting for him, wondering why he's late, and then he will show up with chocolate and a rose in his hand.
We'll lay in the middle of the road at night and look at the stars. I'll get nervous because I'm scared a car will come, but he just tells me to relax and enjoy the moment.
We'll be watching the sunset at the beach and we'll randomly start wrestling in the sand. Then we'll run down to the water and he'll pick me up, spin me around and kiss me.
He'll tell me to go upstairs and open my window. Then he'll sit on a wall outside and sing/play guitar for me :)
Of course we do disagree on some things. We've not learned not to talk about whether or not animals have feelings. King Kong made me cry. Jared thinks they don't have feelings. Yeah.. Not a good topic for us. Also the topic of zombies. Anyone see that news broadcast about the guy who was eating another guys face? Yeah.. Jared said he would have gone up and helped the guy whose face was getting eaten off. I said I would have locked my doors in my car because I'd be too scared of the zombie dude. If that makes me un-Christ-like, then ok. Also, he thinks all Taylor Swift songs are the same, that they are all break up songs about stupid boys. Haha, if any of you really know me, you'll know I'm kind of the biggest TS fan out there. So that's something we don't talk about either :)
BUT
Is all that really that important? No :)
I love that he randomly stops, looks at me, smiles, and says, "Can I really kiss you?"
I love instead of hanging out last Friday night, he went home early to do homework :) I've got a responsible boyfriend :)
I love that whenever I look at the ocean, or the stars and say "It's so beautiful" he says, "No, you are" :)
I love that he respects me, and treats me like I'm a person, not an item to be used.
I love that he sings Justin Bieber songs around me, even though he hates him. He just knows how much I love the Biebs <3
I love that he lets me film him ALL the time :)
I love that sometimes he suggests to go on walks, just so we can talk and be together :)
I love that I can tell him ANYTHING about my dreams, the past, who I am, anything I've ever done, and he never judges me.
I love that he makes me want to be a better person.
I just love the guy <3
Ok. Sorry for the novel. I'll end now :)
But I mean come on, it's not a Desiree post unless it has pictures or video. So, here ya go :)
This has been my theme song for the past 3 months :)
