10 songs I'm listening to...Tag!

I saw this tag on carbonprincess' blog and thought I'd have a go myself. It seems like it's an old tag but I'm sure I can be forgiven :]

1. Gaslight Anthem - The '59 Sound.
I am soo excited to see this band at Leeds Festival. I absolutely love this song!

2. Set your Goals - Mutiny!
Another band which I am hoping to catch at Leeds Festival. This is a really upbeat song sound wise. You could have a good drunken dance to this one! haha

3. Metro Station - Shake it.
BIGGEST GUILTY PLEASURE IN THE WORLD. My friend is a dj at a local nightclub and he sometimes plays and dedicates the song to me. Makes me cringe everytime! This song reminds me of a really happy time though so I still love it.

4. Calvin Harris - Ready for the Weekend.
This song is soo catchy I can't stop listening to it. I really love Calvin Harris. He's got an awesome sense of humour and I really love his youtube channel. I'm also going to see him at the 02 Academy in Newcastle in October. Exciting!

5. The Pierces - Ruin.
Such a beautiful song sang by two beautiful women. This song is soo beautiful yet soo bitter at the same time. The perfect combination in my opinion for a 'boys are rubbish' phase!

6. Tilly and the Wall - Pot Kettle Black.
I've seen this band a handful times and they are such a feel good band. This is one of their heavier songs and it's awesome! They've changed their sound quite recently and this is one of their newer songs. I much prefer their older sound but this was a pleasant suprise! I really wish I could tap dance!

7. Polar Bear Club - Burned Out In A Jar.
Another band at Leeds Festival this year. I saw these at the O2 Academy in Newcastle a few month ago and they were awesome. I only wish it was in a more intimate venue. Check this band out. SOO GOOD.

8. Jacks Mannequin - Bruised.
Such a lovely song sang by a lovely man. The singer is Andrew McMahon who is also in Something Corporate. He has such a lovely voice!

9. Paramore - Crushcrushcrush.
I love dancing to this song when I'm out.

10. Shook Ones - Bad Year.
This is one of my favourite bands of all time and I recently had the honour of cooking for them when they played a venue in Newcastle. My friend is a promoter and put the gig on. I usually make food for bands for him when he gets them to play Newcastle. I made spag bol and garlic bread if you're interested! I got to have a few drinks with a couple members of the band after the gig. I was very shy but it was awesome! Check this band out if you're into melodic hardcore and similar bands like Against Me!, Crime In Stereo and Kid Dynamite.
