All Time Low Music

Weightless-All Time Low

Currently my favorite song and I think it explains my life pretty perfectly.

Lyrics:
Manage me, I'm a mess
Turn a page, I'm a book half unread
I wanna be laughed at, laughed with, just because
I wanna feel weightless and that should be enough

Well I'm stuck in this f*cking rut
Waiting on a second-hand pick-me-up
And I'm over getting older

If I could just find the time
Then I would never let another day go by
I'm over getting old

Maybe it's not my weekend but it's gonna be my year
And I'm so sick of watching while the minutes pass as I go nowhere
And this is my reaction to everything I fear
'Cause I've been going crazy, I don't wanna waste another minute here

I make believe that I impress
That every word, by design, turns a head
I wanna feel reckless, wanna live it up just because
I wanna feel weightless 'cause that would be enough

If I could just find the time
Then I would never let another day go by
I'm over getting old

Maybe it's not my weekend but it's gonna be my year
And I'm so sick of watching while the minutes pass as I go nowhere
And this is my reaction to everything I fear
'Cause I've been going crazy, I don't wanna waste another minute here

This could be all that I've waited for
(I've waited, I've waited for)
And this could be everything I don't wanna dream anymore

Maybe it's not my weekend but it's gonna be my year
And I've been going crazy, I'm stuck in here

Maybe it's not my weekend but it's gonna be my year
(It's gonna be my year)
And I'm so sick of watching while the minutes pass as I go nowhere
(Go nowhere)
And this is my reaction to everything I fear
(Everything I fear)
'Cause I've been going crazy, I don't want to waste another minute here

If this shows you a little more about me, I'm glad.  Hope you like the song as much as I do!

All Time Low (:

All Time Low.

This is one of the bands who has changed my life.  There songs make you think, make you wanna dance, or just laugh.  Sometimes, they aren't heart breaking, but they can be.  

Let me tell you about these boys.
First, on the far left, we have Rian Dawson(yes, it's spelled like that), the drummer.
Then we have Alex Gaskarth, lead vocals and guitar
After him, we have Jack Barakat, lead guitar
And lastly, we have Zachary Merrick, bass.

Alex and Jack have a radio show, Full Frontal, about news, music, and tour life.  It isn't normal news, it's about what THEY find entertaining, which can get R rated at times, but its internet radio, so they can still do it and not get in trouble.  

I have seen them 3 times so far in concert, and met them once. They are actually as nice as they seem, and I could barely speak to them.  

Alex and Jack are often 'shipped' together, people like the idea of them being in a relationship, even though Alex has a girlfriend.  They play along, and it gets pretty cute.  The name?  
Jalex Barakarth

Introduction to me and my music.



tumblr_mljvlzDoTH1qci3tuo1_500-2529.jpg (521×521)
Music.  For some, it´s life changing, for others, life saving.  For me, it´s all of the above.  Music speaks in ways words can't and can describe my every thought, feeling or emotion.  Musicians now a days, a lot of them anyway, talk about money, drugs, and women.  That is not what I´m talking about.  I´m talking about those people who literally tear away at their heart to project a message they want to get across.  It´s not always good, but it´s always true. It´s not always sad, but it´s not always happy.

My Inspiration in Life (From Music, of course):  Kellin Quinn (From Sleeping with Sirens), Christofer Drew Ingle (From Never Shout Never), and Jenna McDougall (From Tonight Alive)

Bands that will be mentioned, and possibly my favorites:  All Time Low, Tonight Alive, Never Shout Never, Sleeping with Sirens, Pierce The Veil (May have used this for my URL), You Me At Six, The Summer Set, The Ready Set, Marianas Trench, Panic! At The Disco, Goldhouse, Forever The Sickest Kids, We The Kings, Boys Like Girls, and if I keep going, it will just consists of bands.

Now that that is out of the way.  Hello, I´m Courteney Leonard, and I´m a 17 year old  girl.  I listen to a lot of music, and that is an understatement.  To most, I am very energetic, bubbly person with an 'too happy' attitude, and that is true.  The reason I am like this is music, if I didn't have these wonderful bands to listen to, my life would be terrible.  Band merch and skinny jeans are most of my wardrobe and I wouldn't want it any other way.  I hope you find new bands that will make your heart smile and help you wear the smile I do all day(:
