Hello, everyone. This is Hannah posting. I figured I’d finally get
myself together and write a post. Caleb invited me to co-author this blog a
couple of weeks ago, but life has a way of shoving itself in front of your face
and keeping you from doing things you want to do. Not that I’m bitter or
anything. But that’s besides the point.
When he told me about the premise of this blog, it was something
that I’d never really thought about before. This whole idea of people’s
favorite songs being a sort of peephole into their mind. A sort of snapshot of
that moment. And I agree.
A couple of quick facts about me: I am a writer. I love music
(that’s a given). I love creating (drawing, photography), even if I’m really awful at it. I’m a nerd
in anything psychology or science related (I know. I’m weird.) Musically
related, though, I grew up with a dad who loves music. He was in a band and he
taught me to appreciate the way the songs were built, instrument-wise,
harmony-wise, etc. I also grew up with a mom who’s a writer. And in that way, I’ve
learned to love songs with creative lyrics. I’ll listen to nearly anything. That
being said, I almost always have 10 or so favorite songs. So asking my favorite
song is like asking which essential organ I would like to keep the most. There’s
no choosing.
That aside, here are the current songs that I love:
Blasphemy by Twenty One Pilots (This one is from their unreleased
album on YouTube)
Rockabye by Clean Bandit (Caleb, you have gotten me completely
addicted)
When you Love Someone by James TW
Can You Hold Me by NF
Mansion by NF
Hallelujah by Pentatonix
True Colors by Anna Kendrick and Justin Timberlake
Friend Please by Twenty One Pilots
Inner Demons by Julia Brennan (I literally found this one today
and I’ve only listened to it two times, but I can sense it becoming a fast
favorite, so I’m including it.)
So, anyway, that’s a little bit about me. I hope to be blogging on
here a lot. Until next time!
Hannah
