Darlin' If You're Free for a Couple of Hours (Week 8) 

Let's Pretend We're Married - Prince from the album 1999 (1982)
  • 1999 is an amazing album that shows Prince's ability to create catchy yet unique tunes. This song is catchy and I had it stuck in my head all week. 
Thief - Ansel Elgort from the single Thief (2017)
  • A lot of folks think Ansel Elgort is not a talented musician and should stick to modeling and acting, but I genuinely enjoy his music. Sue me. 
Motion Sickness - Phoebe Bridgers from the album Stranger in the Alps (2017)
  • My friend Rachael showed us this song on a trip to a library book sale in Decatur (its snowed!) and its haunting but beautiful. 
What Is Love? - TWICE from the EP What Is Love? (2018)
  • My friend Tinaye showed us this one. None of us are huge K-Pop fans, but I still have this song stuck in my head at the end of March. Yup.
Balenciaga - Eva from the album Queen (2019)
  • Maya picked out this song. It's French pop, and I'm not mad about it. It's a bop!
Bark at the Moon - Ozzy Osbourne from the album Bark at the Moon (Extended Version) (1983)
  • I am always in the mood for Ozzy mood. Period.
No Time to Die - Billie Eilish from the single No Time to Die (2020)
  • Billie Eilish's new single is the title track for the upcoming Bond film. I love the song and it's incredibly gorgeous. 
Fly Like An Eagle - Steve Miller Band from the album Fly Like An Eagle (1976)
  • I heard this on the radio when I was going to dinner with my parents that week. It's a classic with a spacey vibe.
Rocky Mountain High - John Denver from the album Rocky Mountain High (1972)
  • John Denver is America's sweetheart and must be protected at all costs. 
Wasted Time - The Eagles from the album Hotel California (1976)
  • This is my favorite song off Hotel California. 
Maybe I'm Amazed - Paul McCartney from the album McCartney (1970)
  • While I love The Beatles immensely, Paul McCartney's and George Harrison's solo careers were far more interesting and in my range of musical interests. "Maybe I'm Amazed" is one of many perfect Macca songs. 
Feathered Indians - Tyler Childers from the album Purgatory (2017)
  • Its not often that I like a new country artist, but my sister was obsessed with this song last summer and it grew on me. Not that I like the term "Indians" in any way, but the rest of the song excluding the lyric is sweet and honest. Childers' voice is rough but authentic. I can dig it. 
Rosanna - Toto from the album Toto IV (1982)
  • If you don't love Toto, you're a bitter person who doesn't enjoy a good power ballad.
I'm Gonna Be (500 Miles) - The Proclaimers from the album Sunshine on Leith (1988)
  • I watched that one episode of How I Met Your Mother. Enough said. 
When The Sun Goes Down - Arctic Monkeys from the album Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not (2006)
  • Someone had this on their Instagram story and I had to immediately add it to this playlist and jam for a minute. Old Arctic Monkeys hits different. 

Enjoy, beebs!
Allie

Product Review: Dermactin-TS Pore Refining Exfoliating Facial Scrub

Happy Friday, my dudes! I hope this week was good to all of you and I pray for the weekend to be even better. This Friday, I am presenting to you my first-ever product review on this blog! I love giving my unsolicited advice and opinions on things, soooooo I hope to drop some nuggets of knowledge on y'all. I'd love to review products you suggest, too! This week's product is a Pore Refining Exfoliating Facial Scrub from the brand Dermactin-TS . I have never used this brand before but have seen it at every Sally Beauty store I have visited (and that's a lot of stores- trust me). I snagged this product from the clearance section at my local Sally's and unfortunately, I think this product is being discontinued (or at least being removed from Sally Beauty stores). I have found that it is still being sold online, so if you are interested in trying the product, you can snag it from the intrawebs. As I said earlier, I purchased this on clearance for just over $5, but

Music Monday: SEXDREAMSUPERSTAR by Brasko - Album Review

Happy Monday, beautiful people! Let's get this week started with some sunshine and happiness (or storm clouds and lightning if ya thrive in the darkness). I wanted to kick off my first Music Monday with a BANG, so hold on to your seats, folks. Today, I am talking about glam pop musician Brasko 's new album SEXDREAMSUPERSTAR . Y'all, I am in LOVE with this record and have been blasting it since its release. My sweet friend Carmela introduced me to Brasko and I was immediately hooked to his Prince-esque lyrics and glam rock sound. I became a die-hard Braskhoe (best fan name, I swear) when I saw his iconic look that can only be described as the love child of Elton John, Marc Bolan, and David Bowie. I mean COME ON. Look at him! SLAY THAT MCFREAKING LOOK!  Anyway, SEXDREAMSUPERSTAR is Brasko's first album after releasing a string of singles from the album, most notably " Vertigo ," " Static ," " Milk Chocolate (feat. Nai Br.XX) ,&quo

Heeeere we go, folks. You Foolish (Week 3) Watch Me - Jaden from the album SYRE (2017) Jaden seems obnoxious to some, but "Watch Me" is an awesome song. I love the power and bass of this song. Set Fire To The Rain -  Adele from the album 21 (2011) I feel like a grandmother because I just now realized how old song this song is. Adele is always a classic and this song is proof of her timelessness! Crazy Ones -  John Mellencamp from the album Whenever We Wanted  (1991) I did my senior seminar paper on John Mellencamp and I adore this song of his. It's one of mine and my dad's favorite songs. His birthday was this week and this one is on there for him. Shot in the Dark -  Ozzy Osbourne from the album The Ultimate Sin  (1986) I don't care what anyone says, 1980s Ozzy is fantastic. There's nothing like 1980s metal. Suspicious Minds -  Elvis Presley from the album From Elvis in Memphis (1969) This is on here for my wonderful par
