Paramore - We Are Broken

I've been listening to a lot of Paramore again this week, mainly their first two albums. This one has always been one of my favourites.

We Are The In Crowd - Reflections

This song has come on my shuffle every single time I've put my music on this week. What more reason need there be for it to make it to Song of the Week?

Julie Fowlis - Touch the Sky

First Song of the Week for 2015. This one is from the soundtrack for Brave. It's one of those that I listen to when I feel the need to take a break and feel free from all the burdens around me.

Mass Effect - An End, Once And For All

Song of the Week, AND Song of the Year number two!

I can't believe how quickly this year has flown by. It's been jam packed with goings on too! Again, I had to think long and hard about this one. I've been pondering it over for a couple of months now. Today I decided on this one. This year I've been listening to a lot of soundtracks. That's one of the reasons for this as the Song of the Year for 2014. Another is that this is simply a beautiful piece of music and it never fails to invoke amazing and pure emotions in me. The other reason is that this year has been full of endings. A lot of things have "ended, once and for all." Sometimes it has been the best thing that could have happened. Other times it has been frustrating, devastating and heart breaking. I feel that this particular piece sums it all up in one. All of the rises and the falls, and the swell at the end in preparation for the end of this year and the beginning of the next.

Flyleaf - Believe In Dreams

It's been a funny week. Almost nothing has felt right, my mind has been all over place, completely unsettled, and my heart has been broken repeatedly withing a few small days. This song has been calming to no end when I have needed something to help me relax again.

Rise Against - Making Christmas

My fiancé and I put this album on at the beginning of the week and quite frankly it has been in my head ever since. With thanks in no small part to him, the bugger. ;)

Alter Bridge - Watch Over You

Just been one of those weeks. 

Who is gonna save you
When I'm gone?
And who'll watch over you
When I'm gone?
