LEAD UP TO SUMMER PLAYLIST

It's that time of year, April, when everybody starts to prepare for summer. It's getting warmer outside, and everybody's making the awkward transition from jeans and jumpers to shorts and t-shirts. The lead up to summer is great, and summer itself is even better. One thing I love about the lead up to summer is the transition from relatively mellow (yet still brilliant) music to upbeat and lively music. Here are 10 songs to get you in the mood for summer, which are also great songs to listen to in summer. If you liked this blog post feel free to follow me on Twitter, like my Facebook page, follow me on Google+, or follow me on bloglovin', it'd be really helpful.

My March Soundtrack

Hello! It's that time again, yes, it's time to list 10 songs I've been listening to in March. Not all songs were necessarily released in March, but more or less they've become relatively prominent in my playlists over the past month. 

(I found myself obsessing over this photo, I don't even know why, it was just the photo for me in March)

So much has happened in March, goodness. I mean, Maisie Williams in Doctor Who?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! WJATTTTTTTGLMFDVFBBDGBb yes I'm excited. Marina and the Diamonds released her third album, while James Bay released his insanely beautiful debut album which I've listened to every day since purchasing it. Once Upon A Time came to Netflix UK and I screamed, Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt was brilliant and I need more. Way too much Marvel/DC stuff to even hint at, oh my gosh. A live action Mulan movie, Zane Lowe left Radio 1, I watched FRIENDS on Comedy Central (as always), Deadpool, Jennifer Lawrence announced she's to quit X-Men, so did Hugh Jackman, Angel was announced for X-Men, Spectre trailer was released, and of course, Spider-man. But, what I'm here to talk about is the 10 songs I loved last month. 

1. Higher Love - Prides 

2. Hold My Hand - Jess Glynne

3. Running - James Bay

4. T-Shirt Weather - Circa Waves

5. Emily - San Fermin
