Five Song Friday - July 5th

It's that time of the week! Check out the tunes that I've been hooked on this week, and see what you like! And no judging this week, there's one that I know will make some of you roll your eyes...

1. Chocolate - The 1975
   This has been my addiction this week. It's been stuck in my head since I found it. It's currently the free download of the week on iTunes, so go download it! It's infectious  it's catchy, and it's british. Can't really ask for much more. I've never heard of the band, but I love their sound; it's chilled out, but lively enough to make you want to groove around. They use some subtle synths, and clean guitars to create a rocking sound. Just go download it already! 5/5
2. Damage - Jimmy Eat World
   I bought this record after taking a listen on Spotify and falling in love. It's a fantastic album, with a classic Jimmy Eat World sound to it. I honestly love all of the song on it, so I decided to just pick one more at random for this week. "Damage", the title track is lead by an acoustic guitar, giving it a more mellow sound, yet the use of some electric guitar and driving drums keep the alternative rock sound alive. It reminds me a lot of Bleed American, which was their best album in my mind, but this new album comes pretty close. It's full of catchy tunes, grooving songs, and lots of singing about heartbreak, which adds up to what Jimmy Eat World is. 5/5
3. Hungover - 3OH!3
   While this album wasn't my favorite from 3OH!3, it produced some fantastic tracks, like this one. It's full of wobbles, electronic synths, and singing about girls and drinking. What's more 3OH!3 than that? It's an upbeat song, and was one of the standouts from the album. It's not super creative or anything new, but I enjoy it. 5/5
4. Titanium - David Guetta
   I recently watched Pitch Perfect, and ever since I have been listening to this song again. The scene when the two girls are harmonizing to this song is awesome, because the way they harmonize is fantastic. I've also been on a Dance/Electronic music kick this last week, so this fit right in to my mood. I love the contrast from the verse to the chorus, where it goes from a more low key guitar line over pulsing beats to a huge vocal build that erupts into dancing madness. It's a great song, and I have realized I should have listened to it more when it was bigger. 5/5
5. We Can't Stop - Miley Cyrus
   Seriously though, don't judge me for this. Go listen yourself. If you really don't like it, then fair enough. I think it's catchy, and I know it'll fade away before the month is over, but that's alright. It's not groundbreaking, it's not award winning, but it makes for a fun time and good party music. Music doesn't always have to be fantastically written. All you need is some beats, some catchy lyrics, and a tune that sticks with you. So give it a chance. And don't hate. 4/5
