Tuneful Tuesday's 4: Artist of the week

Hello Bloggers!

Hozier. Hozier. Hozier.

Need I say more really?

Now for those of you who missed out on the Graham Norton show please go and check it out on BBC iPlayer. This is not only because Hozier was performing his most iconic track 'Take Me to Church' but also because Meryl Streep, Mark Ruffalo (who I keep calling Mark Gruffalo- primary teaching problems) and Ewan McGregor were hilarious. I haven't laughed at something that much in a while!

Another place you may have heard Hozier is on the opening scenes of Silent Witness Hozier's 'To Be Alone' was playing.

He's growing in popularity (hence the reason why many of his dates have sold out) DON'T WORRY I GOT TICKETS THIS TIME! I'm seeing him in Leeds on May 28th if any of you will be there. Look for the crazed loon fan-girling.

His self titled debut album has been something that has been on repeat on Spotify and I don't think I can rave about how good this is enough! Ever song for me is different but it flows perfectly from track to track. Really good when you're writing an essay because you can listen to a few chilled out ones then climb on your bed for a quick break to dance and air guitar to the more upbeat ones (yes obviously I was doing this). However, starting to think I'm ageing quite quickly as I swear I pulled my hip getting out of bed. I'm already a Granny and I've not even turned 20 yet.

Usually I would pick out my favourite tracks, however that would mean listing the entire album and that's pointless. Instead I'm recommending you either purchase tickets to see him if you haven't already, and if you haven't listened to his album then I urge you to! It's available on Spotify, iTunes and of course YouTube.

If you have a listen let me know what you think and if you have any other suggestions of who I should feature. I do reply to comments on here.

Hope you're enjoying me being more organised and on schedule- have to say it's new for me!

YouTube

Something I want to do next is start making YouTube videos. I found out today that someone I went to school with Emma Pickles was a YouTuber and she regularly made videos. She is someone who does make up and hair tutorials mostly! 

Seeing people on YouTube like Emma has made me want to make videos myself. It pushes me on and makes me think that I can do it! However, I guess I'm scared. I'm worried people won't like my videos! I guess I'm just looking to see if there's anyone who reads these blogs that would watch my videos? If you would please please please write me a comment and give me ideas/suggestions. I know making videos will help my confidence and expand into a world I want to be a part of! 

In other news...I am settling into my new flat well. Sometimes I regret living on my own but I like having my own space sometimes. For now no more regrets! My Internet and tv are up and running so when I get spare time which will most likely be on a night I will write my blogs which hopefully will be everyday! 

Thank you so much again for reading my blog I really am grateful!

The Start Of Something New

Firstly, no High School Musical reference in the title was intended it just kind of...happened.

Well first thing's first HELLO! I'm Megan and blogging is something I have wanted to do for a long time. I guess today (Monday 26th August 2013) was finally the day I decided to make it happen. Now I've been obsessed with YouTube recently and I have seen how most of them started out blogging so I thought why not give it a try? So here go's...MY FIRST BLOG.

Monday.

Unlike most people I love Monday's. Whatever bad things happened the previous week I tend to forget about and start again. Monday signals a fresh start. In this first blog I thought I'd give a brief explanation to how I got here and why I want to do this. It'll give you guys out there (whoever you are) a better understanding of the weird and wonderful mess that makes me!
 
 Now my best friend Abz can be blamed for my unhealthy obsession to YouTube. She is my twin and probably one of the few people that understands me and accepts me for who I am. Now when she told me about YouTube I didn't really get into it until I first started watching Tyler Oakley. Now as soon as I started watching Tyler's videos I became instantly hooked. His videos made me laugh till I cried and in some ways that's how I wanted to be viewed. I wanted to be known for making people happy something which at the minute I feel I am struggling with. We'll leave all the 'emosh' stuff for the next blog!

As well as blogging YouTube would also be something I would love to be able to be involved in. I guess I see myself as someone who enjoys talking to people through the internet! Now my 'channel' won't really see any action (best phrase I could think of) till I move to my new flat (sometime in September) ready for me to begin Uni. At the minute I can't really say how regular these videos will be because these videos would be fitted around Uni and work! I have to be honest and say I have ideas already of what I want to develop my channel as! Vlogging, challenges and maybe advice? University is something we're all most likely to experience and I feel like I could connect with some of you who may be worried about Uni, wanting to know what Uni life is like, or maybe you just want an idiot to laugh at on YouTube! Regardless, feel free to view my videos and tell me what you think.

Now I don't want this blog to be so big but I am so excited for the future. I have so many things to share with you on this blog and I just hope that some of you find it interesting! I will try and blog everyday if I get chance! I can't really say what genre this blog would be in! It's just a general blog. If you want to read reviews of the gigs I've attended, read about the events of my life or just read about what University is like then I guess my blog might interest you!

Thank You for taking the time to read this and I hope you'll stick around to stay on this journey with me! As Natasha Bedingfield would sing:

"The rest is still unwritten"

Megan.

P.S. Let's be cute and dedicate my blog to Abz. You inspired me to do this and gave me the confidence to pursue this. Thank you.
