Scribbles About Music: SWAAY EP by DNCE

So one of my favorite songs on the radio right now is Cake by the Ocean from DNCE, aka Nick Jonas' super cool dance band. And I was kinda sad to see they only had an EP with 4 songs on it... I'm excited to hear more of them because... all the songs were pretty great!

Cake By The Ocean 
I love this song. It makes me want to dance and it makes me happy and I want to eat Cake by The Ocean. Lol. Any time this is on the radio I get really excited. I was never a big fan of the Jonas Brothers... but Nick Jonas kinda reminds me of Gabe Saporta from Cobra Starship. He just has a sexy voice and he's having fun with that... so I really like this song cause it makes me fangirl in a way I usually only do for Gabe Saporta.

Pay My Rent 
This is a really cool analogy. This EP is great with analogies. Lol. So he wants to be with this girl all the time, so he's saying "pay my rent" because that's like what he wants of her love... very unique lol. I don't totally get it... but its a nice song. Probably my least favorite on the album, but that's okay. It's still really good.

Toothbrush 
Never thought a song called Toothbrush by one of the Jonas Brothers would be one of the sexiest songs ever... but it definitely is. Its about leaving a toothbrush at a guys place... again so simple, but its really sexy and very simple. Its cute. I dig it. I'm listening to this now. This might be my 2nd favorite on the album... I think Cake By The Ocean is definitely the best.

And this sorta reminds me of Gym Class Heroes and Maroon 5. You know that song Clothes Off by Gym Class Heroes? Its kinda like that... forgot how much I liked GCH too!

Jinx 
This is the sweet song of the EP and one I can totally relate to. He (when I say "he" I mean the narrator of the song... which could be anyone really.) And its something I can relate to as I said before... and it makes sense to me. Everything feels to perfect, and you don't want to mess anything up so you just kinda lay low and play cool till you can be sure. And it says its like a birthday wish, you can't say it out loud. It actually kinda reminds me of a poem I wrote in high school too. Lol. This kinda has special meaning to me... maybe tied for 2nd... or 1st? Lol. It has a kazoo type of sound too that I think is really cool.

So yes. I'm in love with Nick Jonas, we're probably soul mates... We're going to have a Scream Queens Murder Mystery Wedding... and it'll be great. Definitely recommend checking out the EP before the wedding though. Wait how old is Nick Jonas? Ohhh okay he's 23... only a little younger than me... we can do this. Lol.

Bye!

Scribbles about TV: Jane The Virgin Review!

This I think is a surprise hit, so of corse I needed to watch it for myself to see! It's been getting a lot of critical buzz because it has been reviewed as "one of the best pilots of the season" and I also have been hearing a few critics saying that they don't think it will last because the word "virgin" is in the title... which is stupid. There is nothing wrong with being a virgin and if a show is good, its good and people should watch it... plus this did bring pretty high ratings for The CW so the critics that said that can suck it! Lol. Overall I really liked this show. One thing thats been bothering me a lot about the new Fall shows is that the characters aren't interesting enough. Especially the female characters. I thought that this showed a lot of really strong female characters that were interesting. This had a pretty big cast with A LOT of stuff going on for a pilot and most of the characters were female. That is a powerful thing to see on TV...

Scribbles About TV: Jane The Virgin Finale Review (SPOILERS)

So.... Can we talk about all the twists because there were a lot! I didn't even see all of them coming! Alrighty we start out in typical Jane The Virgin Mode with Jane's choice between Raphael and Michael... I'd be okay with either but I think I'm team Michael. Jane has a weird moment with Raphael and thinks she's better off without him and just having him be the father of her child. She's also starting to have some feelings for Michael again. Then she almost has the baby on the bus and some woman helps her and gets the bus driver to take her to the hospital. Rogellio and Xo are in Vegas and they get drunk and can't remember what happens, but they make it just in time to see Jane deliver a baby boy. I knew it would be a boy! Lets pause on that a little and go to Michael and his ex partner/friend with benefits who comes back says she has a lead on Sin Rostro, gives him an address where the plastic surgeon is and by the time Michael gets there, he's de...

Man Crush Monday: Jimmy Fallon

Jimmy Fallon is one of my favorite talk show hosts... and I pretty much like all the late night talk show hosts... so that is saying a lot. (I haven't actually watched James Cordin yet, but I have a huge crush on him from Into The Woods, so yeah. I also have a crush on Seth Meyer though... And all the comedy central guys... ugh. Lol. and obviously Jimmy Fallon. Lol.) So yeah... this is saying a lot that he is one of my favorites. 1) He genuinely acts like he has the most fun job in the world-  Jimmy Fallon is always really excited about the show. He pretty much does have the most fun job ever, and he actually appreciates it. He was on SNL, and when he left SNL for late night he was excited and proud of his job, and now on The Tonight Show he's very happy. 2) His Ice Cream Flavors are good- This one is completely random... but I feel like having Ben and Jerry's make an ice cream flavor after you is a really big honor and a great responsibility. You can tell a lot about a...
