Blogmas 2017//Music and Melodies

posted by Rose Cocoa

So this is the first time I've ever done a blogmas. In fact, I've only decided to do it right now and I have no idea what I've got my self but here I am!
Sow what my plan for blogmas?
Well, I'm gonna be writing a blog post every day for 24 days
*looks up to the sky* God help us.
And I'll be blogging about all thins Christmas, I don't know what, But believe me it's gonna be Christmas orientated.
OK so here we go

Three Christmas albums I'm listening to.

Ok, so I love listening to the same Christmas songs every year, I mean its tradition.But this year, I'm giving other artists ago.Not I didn't say songs, I said artists. I still like all my carols and songs but I'm also ready to listen to other versions

First up is Pentatonix-a Pentatonix Christmas

Oh, my days. There the first song on this album, Oh Come All Yea Faithful,
it really took me places. As an African, I appreciated the composition. It was so beautiful.
Pentatonix has three Christmas albums you should check them out as well.


Favourite song on the album: Oh come, all ye faithful

Leslie Odom Jr

 This artists voice sounds like a hot cup of chocolate on a cold wintery day. It kind of soothes your soul and helps you forget whats happening around you.Every time I listen to it, I imagine me in ten years by the fireplace with a hot cup of hot chocolate.It is truly a beautiful album that has all your absolute fav songs but with a jazzy twist.
Favourite song on the album: My Favourite things

Sia- Everyday is Christmas

So I am actually in love with Sia so no doubt that I am biased about her Christmas. I love the fact that it strays from the traditional covers that most artists do for their Christmas albums. It has a lot of original songs that make you wanna jump up and dance along to it. It brings a fresh scent to the constant stuff that we are hearing

My Favourite song on the album: Candy Cane Lane

What is your favourite Christmas Album or song?
Love Rose xx

Music and Melodies// Fun Songs to fire up you playlist

posted by Rose Cocoa

So you know when your on a road trip or at a party or even studying and the playlist is a little bit.. bleeh, And you've had it up to here with the same songs over and over again in the top charts, Well I do Have a remedy for you.Now this is to be used with caution, You cannot over dose with this (overplaying songs ever and over again is what got you into this mess anyway!).
Anyway I present to you...



Lovely day-Bill withers                                                                                                            

The reason I picked this was really the chorus like I always have a competition to see who can hold the longest note but my lungs are weak, very weak. Nevertheless, you should try it out
R-E-S-P-E-C-T- Aretha Franklin                                                                                                   

 I'm pretty sure I don't even need to explain this song. Just listen to it and you mood will rise up 10 levels,trust me.                                  
Single ladies-Beyonce                                                                                                                      

This song is like a metaphorical light bulb,It just lightens up everything and res assured everyones gonna be dancing to this, in any situation

The climb-  Miley Cyrus                                                                                                                  

Its inspirational, beautiful and pre 2013 so it's pretty good
This will be-Natalie Cole                                                                                                                 

This is hands down the best song youll ever hear in your life.It just reminds me of  summer and suun and all things haaat! (Yes, that's from frozen)

That's it from moi, let me know if you liked any of the songs!
Rose xx
