Song/Album Of The Month | July

It's that time again! It's time for me to share with you the music I have been loving throughout the month of July...

Song Of The Month

That's right, the single I've most loved throughout this month is John Newman's Love Me Again from his soon to be released album, which is yet to be given a title. I'm not the only one who thinks this song is stunning, as it previously hit the top spot in the charts and still remains in the top ten. John is the incredible voice in Rudimental's hit single 'Feel the Love' and making a name for yourself as a solo artist can be a difficult task anyway, but even harder after featuring on someone else's track and being fingertips away from the stardom you want to reach. But Newman has well and truly established himself in the music industry with this beauty of a track! His soulful tones fit perfectly over deep piano thuds to make the most incredible northern soul throwback. Although it may have already done it's time at the top of the chart, I still believe it be to be a brilliant summer track that everyone will want blaring out of their car stereo's. If you are yet to hear this single, then take a listen here!

Album Of The Month



Guess who's become all patriotic? Yep, me! Having it been a year since the UK proved itself as being so great with the Jubilee, the Olympics and the Paralympics, what better way to celebrate that than to turn back time and enjoy the incredible album created by Gary Barlow and The Commonwealth Band 'Sing'. The album was originally created just for the Queens Diamond Jubilee, but it's fair to say it was an album enjoyed by the whole nation throughout the whole of the summer. The single 'Sing' became a huge hit, as did the album, with them both reaching the top spot in the charts at the same time. Gary took months out of his busy schedule to create 'Sing' and traveled all over the Commonwealth collecting thousands of voices and notes from homemade musical instruments either on his Mac or his iPhone and created a stunning song which made the whole country smile. Just listening to this makes me realise how amazing last summer was and that I am proud to be British...
