Huh. A few months ago or whenever it was that One Direction became popular, I didn't like the What Makes You Beautiful song. And I didn't think that I'd ever like or listen to their music. Never planned on it, and nobody else in my family really likes them all that much (but at least we'll listen to the song on Just Dance 4...unlike Justin Beiber's song...which actually my sister really does like...) And it's a little funny to me, because when I was playing Just Dance 4, and my younger brother came up while I was choosing a song, he told me not to do What Makes You Beautiful because he didn't want me to get caught up on them. I told him that there was no chance of that happening, because I find the song still mildly annoying for some reason. And for whatever reason, I rarely happen to like male singers. Not sure why, I just don't.
Anyways, I was looking for a song last night for an upcoming post...and eventually stumbled across I Wish. And I found that I liked it.
I'm not entirely sure why, but from the songs of theirs that I've listened to so far, I think this one is my favorite. It might be because it's the first one I found, but I don't think that's entirely it. I think it helps that lately I've been listening to loud music, and this is much more relaxed than the majority of those songs, but again I don't think that's entirely it either.
It might be the lyrics. I don't usually like love songs because the majority of the ones I find are all sappy and sweet, and I'm not very fond of sappy stuff. For some reason, happy stuff makes me sad, and sad stuff makes me happy. Which is probably a little backwards, but I don't really care. But the lyrics for this song...I can't relate to it at all, actually. Never been in a relationship, and I've never had any actual special feeling for anyone that I've met. But I still like the lyrics.
It might also help that it's a 'new' song to me. Generally I find some music, listen to it for about a week straight until I make myself completely sick of it, and repeat with other music. (The only thing that hasn't bored me to tears yet would be Vocaloid, but that's just really a different side of music...and the Rasmus...still like them, and it's been...half a year or so. Vocaloid's coming up to a full year)
I don't think that there necessarily is a reason why I like it, and I should probably just shut up and enjoy the music, but I can't help but think about it. Not only is it something to think about, but I seem to really like the things that don't really have apparent answers to them.
One of the other songs I found that I like would be Live While We're Young.
Honestly, it's the 'crazy crazy crazy' part here that I first liked. It's a really fun song, and after actually watching the video (I'm not really one for watching music videos) I think I like it even better now. It's the kind of song that can put a smile on my face, even when I should feel like frowning.
I could probably put up a few more videos and find the reasons why I like the songs, but I'm not going to do it. In the end, it'd probably be more or less the same things: it's new (to me) it's different, and for some, fun.
And for in case anyone's wondering, I have no idea why I made this post. It was random :)
