    Why hello there little blog! Although things have been plenty hectic I must admit that I really did miss you. Still, I can't quite tell if your added effect would have done me good or bad. Extra homework = too much stress, but then again, blogposts = extra vent time. This is how we come to the conclusion that I should have just taken an art or choir class instead of a class that actually requires effort. Not to dis anyone in those classes, but even bad art is art and singing is either something you have or you don't. If you feel that stressed about those classes and you're not having to write an expansive essay on them, you may find yourself in the need to switch classes.

     Now, little blog, I don't know when or if I'll ever see you again. Sadly, thanks to both Wi-Fi problems (as in no Wi-Fi) and car stuff, I am having to write this blog preemptively and will have to log it into the computer at the land of school in the morning. Hopefully. What this means for you is that I must do an artist that I know well enough or that is very pop recent stuff. The world of fate decided this one for me, so you got lucky. We're going with Crazy by Kat Dahlia. Yes, it's a pretty poppy now but shut up and go get a bouquet.

     I have not seen that video, no matter how much I really want to. So you'll have to tell me if it's good or not. Seriously, if you see me in the hallway just give me a thumbs up or a thumbs down and then I may know if people actually read my blog or not. Because if I don't know soon, I'm going to go on some existentialist quest of blogging and I think Tumblr has already had enough of that. By the way, if you would like to see some of the other stuff I do, besides good music (HA!), check out this awesome little Tumblr page that I refuse to customize named

     Now that I've gotten my advertising out of the way, back to the music of which literally everyone here came for!

     Kat Dahlia is a girl of which I don't know a lot about because of the darned internet sitch. But I CAN tell you that she

     1. is very pretty
     2. has dark hair
     3. has angry eyebrows
     4. is a singer that doesn't fit her look's stereotype
     5. is soon to blow up (in a non-terrorist way)

     In her song she hides these little treasures that you don't notice until you listen to it at full volume about 54 consecutive times when you get home. But so you don't have to go through that hassle, I'll just tell you what's the up-and-up.

     In the background of the song there is a little telephone-automated-voice-lady saying "Try again". This is repeated through out the song--even when you can't quite focus on it anymore-- and acts as a steady tempo (for those of you who can never figure out what a tempo is in any song).

     In an ultimate test to her bravery, she says the name of the guy she likes in her song. IN HER SONG. Is no one going to talk about this?!

     Finally, her song is so sweet while being down-to-earth. She's not trying to declare her love, she's not trying to exaggerate, she's giving real-life answers to real-life questions.

"Is it crazy that I keep your shirt right here just to smell you're cologne?"
"Damn, that sounds crazy."

      She talks like it's a conversation she's having with herself that she eventually wants to deliver to him. Through the whole song is a journey from a liking to a like-liking to what she feels is insane (but is actually love) to at the end where it's just acceptance. At the end she's very giggly as if she's finally got the weight lifted and now she's all peachy-keen.

     A whole 'nother way to interpret the song is that it is a phone call. She calls and repeatedly gets the "try again" voice. Finally she gets through but it's just a message so she feels comfortable rambling on until she gets to that magnificent point of self-realization. As she spews out the accepted love speech, he picks up and she gets all giggly, as she would if she was seeing him in person.

     Anyway you want to interpret it, that's it. This song suits you, you dont have to suit the song. SO many songs these days give itty-bitty details about looks or feelings or people when if they could just generalize it a little, maybe people could get more in-tuned with it.

So all, I guess that's my schpeel for the 1:10 in the morning. (Soon-to-be 7:40 in the morning.) Goodbye lovelies.
