Music will always be my biggest guilty pleasure. And when all the songs on the radio match your feelings, you'd know that you're actually experiencing one common thing - heartbreak. So here's my playlist when I was heartbroken back then. Hahah.
1. The One That Got Away - Katy Perry
One of the first Katy's songs that I heard, probably after Firework. The beat is simple. But her voice is the winning factor. I appreciate storytelling songs so I love the story behind the lyrics. And also, this song is an awesome go-to karaoke choice. ;P
Fav lyrics: It's time to face the music, I'm no longer your muse...
Fav musical moment: The stretched part of "the ooonnnneee.... the oooonnnneeee...."
2. One Last Time - Ariana Grande
I don't like the music video. It's so misleading that it totally destroys the loveliness of the song. I love this song after I watched the lyric video. After realising the beauty of the song's lyrics, I replayed the song again and again. And of course, Ariana's voice is the cherry on top.
Fav lyrics: I should've done you better, 'cause you don't want a liar...
Fav musical moments: The whole chorus, especially that one last time (pun intended) she sings the chorus. "One last time, I need to be,, the one,, who takes you home,, ohh."
3. Stitches - Shawn Mendes
Yahh... that magazine-model face of Mendes is ruined ;P I love the metaphors in this song. I mean it's on the Swift level okay, in my opinion. :P But it's a bummer that he's not the writer of the song. Some guys named Daniel and Teddy and Daniel wrote it. Go check Wikipedia if you don't believe me. The melody of this song is so depressing and gloomy and of course, he sounded heartbroken. And the radio way overplayed this song that by the end of 2015, I've had it enough of this song that I wanted to throw up. Don't take me wrong. I love this song, but too many sadness can affect our mood :P
Fav Lyrics: Needle and the thread, gotta get you out of my head. Needle and the thread, gonna wind up dead.
Fav musical moment: The whole pre-hook ("gotta feeling that I'm going under...")
4. Half a Heart - One Direction
I love the sad melody of this song. And the lyrics are just breathtaking and charming. The metaphor of being incomplete without someone is very sweetly romantic, if you think about it again. And I love the arrangement of who-sings-which-part. Liam in the first verse, Zayn killing it in the 1st chorus, then Louis continues, and then Harry singing the 2nd chorus and then Niall sounding innocently heartbroken in the bridge. I love it. I just love it.
Fav lyrics: Though I tryna get you out of my head, the truth is I got lost without you...
Fav musical moments: The whole chorus ("only half a blue sky, kinda there but not quite...")
5. Amnesia - 5 Seconds of Summer
Okay, I lied. :P I must say, actually my biggest guilty pleasure is spending my time watching these people on YouTube until late at night. I know I suck. I don't even like this band. :P I mean, I was just about to fangirl this band but when I saw the She Looks So Perfect video, I just... hated it. Lucky them, they have Amnesia and I was hooked. They should thank those people who gave them this song 'cause if not, I'd still hate to love this band. ;P IDK, this song just tugged my heartstring. And it's relatable to me. And I felt like, if I were Taylor Swift, I'd wish that I was the one who wrote this song, 'cause the lyrics are very heartfelt. The melody arrangement is also wonderful. From its acoustic start to its loud heartfelt 2nd chorus. And this is my favourite song of them.
Fav lyrics: It's like WE never happened, was it just a lie? If what we had was real, how could you be fine? 'Cause I'm not fine at all...
Fav musical moments: The 2nd time of chorus when the melody starts to grow louder.
You know what they said, sometimes you love a certain song 'cause it catches exactly how you feel right now/ then. So that's it.
Ikhlas Daripada,
