 Hi! Welcome to the 10th #MMM post! Im really enjoying this meme but Im kinda slacking. Anywhoo, This week I am helping you discover an awesome band that I had recently discovered, He is We. Its female Fronted, and I absolutely love the vocals. It isnt hard, for those of you who keep up with this weekly thing and are scared about that. I may love my rock bands, but I also love acoustic, too.

A little about He is We:

Music Madness Monday #9: My Heart Will Go On by Celine Dion

I believe that EVERYONE has heard of this artist, or at least this song. If not.... what rock did you just crawl from under? Anywhooo, this song is one of my favorite and Im posting it today because I could not get it out of my head! My CD is skipping and I cant listen to it. (BUMMER!)

The theme song from TITANIC (an epic movie that makes me cry every time I watch it), My Heart Will Go On, is sung by the LOVELY Celine Dion. I was terribly upset when she retired, but she did leave behind a legacy that will not be forgotten :) At least not by me.

And yes, I might be a little young to know about this artist -- much less listen to her -- and also Titanic... but sue me, ok? I grew up on artists like her!

And now, for the lyrics of this amazing song -- and the music video directly below it:

Music Madness Monday #8: Rise and Shine by Blood on the Dance Floor (Anti-Bullying Song)




 photo 7c29216a-0760-4288-8397-f08783fbe343.jpg




Today`s Feature is an Anti-Bullying Video by Blood on the Dance Floor. It might look weired, but it has a good message to it. I feel that more teens would rather see this (and it get through to them) than any other approach would. Lets stop bullying today, and save many, many people grief. Nothing comes out of bullying people, so why do it? You wouldnt like it if the tables are turned. Pain can cause people to do stupid, and potentially deathly stuff. Pass it on.




 Lyrics:
Rain rain won't go away
Cloud on my head every single day
This pain pain goes right inside
Breaking me down till I Just cry

Little Bully wants to play
Hits me every single day
Pain, Pain go right inside
Guess I'll Just have to let it slide

Drain drain all my life
why can't I just stop this strife
Rain rain, won't go away
Cloud on my head every single day

Beat on another kid
But not on me
Rain rain won't go away
Cloud on my head every single day

These games games that you play
Eventually I'll get up and say
No no not this time
I'm taking back what is mine

"With this faith
We will be able to hew out of the mountain of despair
A stone of hope
With this faith
We will be able to transform our nation
Into a beautiful symphony of brotherhood
With this faith
We will be able to stand up for freedom together
Knowing that we will be free one day
This will be the day
When all children will be able to sing with new meaning"
-The Reverend Doctor Martin Luther King, Jr.

Stand up
Take what's mine
Insecurities
Is what your trying to hide
I don't care
For the things that you say
I know that you are just one step away
From breaking down
Pick yourself up off the ground
I know that you are better than this

Open your eyes
Now is the time
To rise up
With Darkness will still shine
Idolize and deposed wrong or right
Will make it through to the other side.




What, or who, are you spotlighting today?

Music Madness Monday #7: Adelitas Way



Music Madness Monday, or #MMM, is a weekly meme for any band or singer (or musician), who is either upcoming or already popular. This meme was created for you to "brag" about your favorite musicians and bands. It can be short, long, full of music videos, whatever.

 I choose to promote up and coming bands and singers, so if you fall into that category, then feel free to post a comment or email me at gothiclove95(@) hotmail (.)com with any information you would like in the post. I expect promotion of the post on your end, also. PS: I usually pick bands that follow me on Twitter, or chat with me in any way.



https://si0.twimg.com/profile_images/2525245909/21skgip3ox4lurfsr6wm.jpegThis week, I chose to promote Adelitas Way, a band that doesn't seem to be all that desperate for a promotion, but is still rockin all the same. Thanks for the follow on Twitter, guys. I just listened to one of their songs, and it sounded way cool. While they have a sort of rock sound, their also light and easy on the head and ears. I noticed in one of the comments that they sounded similar to Life House. For some reason, I thought Greenday. While Im not in any position to compare them to any band, I will say one thing. This band is a band you would probably hear playing over and over again on pretty much any station that pertains to rock or soft rock. Hell, I think you would prefer them to any of the songs they replay 100 times a day that are only about sex, drugs, and money.

And before I start rambling, I think Ill give you guys links to their various social media sites. Check them out if you would like to learn more about them! I think they would appreciate it very much :)
