A song that you can dance to, this is definitely it. It is such an energetic song, it is actually my cooking song, yea thats right, I listen to Faker while I cook, because its so groovy, and theres no other way to cook but groovy. I forget when I first heard it, but I know that every time it comes on I just wanna get up and dance.

30 Day Song Challenge - Day 8: The Presets - If I Know You
A song that you know all the words to, hell there are thousands of songs I know all the words to, this was incredibly hard to choose just one song, I managed to narrow it down to five songs, and then I ended up choosing a totally different song. The Presets in general are amazing, and this song is a masterpiece, it is open to various interpretation and I love how relevant it is to me. So why choose this song instead of something more mainstream or 'appealing', because I don't only know the lyrics to the song, but I know the lyrics, if that makes sense, and they appeal to me more than just a song.
The film clip, directed by Eva Husson, was done so brilliant, I remember seeing the film clip for the first time after hearing it and it just made me appreciate the song even more. How they distance themselves from everyday reality and enter their own world, ignorant to the fact that they are still physically attached to the real world. I see it as an expression of freedom, and I love expression of freedom, I love being able to feel free expressing myself in the real world, and not be judged for it, well, not care that I am judged for it, I just love the feeling of not having to contain myself in order to 'keep the peace' in society, and thats what this song does for me.

30 Day Song Challenge - Day 7: Jimmy Eat World - Sweetness
A song that reminds you of a certain event, Soundwave 2010! It was so freaking amazing, when I heard My Chem pulled out I was quite annoyed, but then when they filled the gap with Jimmy I was so excited! I remember the build up to Soundwave, thinking 'holy crap I'm going to see Jimmy, and I freaking hope they play Sweetness'. I was hoping for it, but then I started to doubt that they would, because they would probably play all their newer songs, and I was getting so anxious because I wanted to hear it so badly, but I wouldn't be able to stay for their full set because I needed to get to A Day To Remember. Then there I was, at the front of the barrier, a couple meters away from the stage, and they came out screaming, 'Are you listening, Woah-oh-oh-oh-oh' and I just lost my shit. It was one of the best moments of my life.
30 Day Song Challenge - Day 6: Josh Pyke - The Summer
A song that reminds you of somewhere, firstly I'd like to say that this song is too unappreciated, well actually no, its just not noticed as much as it deserves to be, it is actually much appreciated by the people that have noticed it. I can't remember when I first heard it, but I got the song on The Chillout Sessions XII, where I find so many amazing songs.
Okay so it is a song that reminds me of somewhere, and it does, but somewhere I haven't physically been. It's an imaginary destination, and every time I hear the song I'm just taken back there, I see myself lying in a pile of big, brown leafs that have fallen of the trees, and looking up I can see the bright sun navigating its way through the many branches of the trees, and the clear blue sky creates such a calm and mellow environment, I feel safe and that nothing can get to me here, there is no worry, no drama, just bliss. I came close to finding an actual place that I can compare to the one in my head, I don't want to disclose its location though, it's my own special place, but in reality, it is no comparison to the one in my head.

30 Day Song Challenge - Day 5: Boys Like Girls - Hero/Heroine
A song that reminds you of someone, okay so I missed another day, only because I'd rather spend the day with my boyfriend rather than sitting on the computer, even though thats pretty much what he did =] Hero/Heroine, I was first introduced to the song a few years ago by one of my best friends Brown, it was love at first listen, it is just such an amazing song, the combination of the music and his voice is just awesome.
The song used to remind me of Brown, because he introduced it to me, but it reminds me of Dean, because as cheesy as it may sound I like to think of him as my hero, "gay much" 'shut up'. I made it his personal ringtone on my phone.
