Music Monday #3 ♡

So I haven't done one of these in a long time so I thought I would do a Music Monday because I have gotten into a few new songs :)

1. Cornflake Girl - Tori Amos


This was suggested to me (and my class) by my Philosophy teacher because we do recommendations from the arts each lesson, so I usually contribute a film that I've watched over the weekend but my teacher usually suggests a song or an artist and sometimes a film and he recommended this artist, and honestly I think she's great. Sort of a Sara Bareilles-Ben Folds hybrid and I quite like her, this song in particular though I love the actual music to it.

2. Eden - Sara Bareilles


I mentioned Sara Bareilles in the above so if it wasn't clear enough already, I love Sara Bareilles but I didn't like the songs on her new album that much so I didn't give all the songs a chance but I listened to this song and I really like the harmonies on it, she has great musicality and it comes across so well in her music.

3. Once Upon A Dream - Lana Del Rey


As a devoted Disney and Lana fan there was no way I was going to dislike this cover. I really want to see Malificent in the cinemas when it comes out, I'm hoping I can find someone to go with me.. I really love how this song was changed into something a bit more dark, I think it puts a nice twist on the song.

4. Come on Eileen - Dexys Midnight Runners



Let's be honest, is there anyone who doesn't like this song? It's such a great song and I'm in one of those phases where it's one of the only things I can listen to, it's so happy and lovely :)

5. Starlight - Muse


This song sounds a lot like The Script to me and I just really like it, but the accent annoys me, far too nasal for my liking but the actual song itself I quite like.

Thanks for reading, I hope you liked reading this :)
