5 Seconds Of Summer's 'Sounds Good Feels Good' Album

Hiii, I'm currently listening to Sounds Good Feels Good which is the new album from 5 Seconds Of Summer and I thought 'Why not do a thoughts/review/opinions type post on this album?' So that's what I'm going to do. ENJOY! 




Their self-titled debut album was released June last year and it was such a success! I discovered 5sos before they became this massive band and it's such an amazing thing to see a band grow so much and become who they are today. After the success of the last album, it was evident a second studio album had to happen. And so Sounds Good Feels Good was released on 23rd October 2015. 

I have to say, I am a massive fan of this album. It's incredibly different from their first studio album which I think is a good thing because what's the point of having two identical albums? It's hard to pick one song and say it's my favourite on the album, however I do have a few favourites


Permanent Vacation 
It's an upbeat, feel good (get it?), dance song and it's one of them songs that you'd belt out when you've got the CD on in the car or in the shower. The lyrics are so catchy and it's so hard not to sings along to the chorus. I went to see 5sos in June and they sung this and it was amazing, you can't help but have a good dance and a bit of a laugh with this song! 

Catch Fire 
Again, this is such a catchy song and it's so hard not to sing your heart out to! It just makes you want to get up and dance, and I imagine it will be amazing live!

Vapor
This song's all about someone who you get addicted to for different reasons and I think the majority of people can relate to this at some point in their lives. I really like this because they just sound so mature as a band and I think the lyrics are incredible and if it was my song, I'd be so proud of it. 

San Francisco
I love this song so much, it's just a really cute song. You can really hear how much they've changed in the last year and you can hear how much stronger their voices have gotten and it's just a really amazing song. 

Outer Space/Carry On 
I really like the idea of putting these two songs together, they're just completely different and it just works so well. I think in this combination, you can really hear their musical influences. I can their influences but it has their twist own twist on it and it just really works. 


Overall, I honestly love this album so much! I'm probably a little biased because they are one of my favourite bands but oh well... It's still an amazing album!

My Favourite....

Hiii, as it's Autumn, or nearly Autumn...(I'm not quite sure), I thought I'd share my favourite Autumn lipstick with you! 




This is the Rimmel London Lasting Finish Lipstick in the shade 'Starry-Eyed' which you can get from Boots for £4.99. 

I absolutely love this colour! It's a dark plummy colour which is perfect for Autumn! There isn't a red tint to this which I think is a good thing because this makes it such a strong colour! I love wearing this with gold eye shadow in Autumn, it's just really suitable for the kind of colours and tones you see this time of year! 

The lipstick is super long lasting which is quite a few hours for me personally. I wore this for quite a long time at one point and even though the lipstick hadn't remained as strong, it looked like a tint and it still looked really nice! 

There are so many high end lipsticks you can swap this for but for those of you who aren't quite as confident, like me, at wearing such a bold lip, this is perfect! It's a lot cheaper therefore if you find it's not for you, it's only £5 rather than £20 and above. I think it's good to try something like this out first because it allows you to play around with it a bit more and if you do get more confident with the idea of a bold lip then you can always go for the higher end.

Let's Have A Chat.

Hiii, hope you're all well. I have to apologise for not posting for like a year but a lot's been happening so I thought we'd have a chat so I can inform you about my lack of updates!




First thing, I'm sat eating a tub of Ben & Jerry's Chocolate Fudge Brownie Ice Cream whilst reminiscing over the fact that this time last week I was on a bus on my way to see One Direction. And it was INCREDIBLE!!! 
Before I went, it hadn't sunk in that Zayn wasn't going to be there and it was so weird seeing only 4 entrances for them to come out. It was so strange and it was weird not seeing him there but nevertheless, the boys put on a fantastic show. As much as I hate to admit it, they did fine without Zayn which I'm glad about because it doesn't look as if Zayn's coming back does it? :( 
The staging was amazing as always! If you haven't been able to make it to this tour, look on Twitter for a picture of the stage for Stockholm Syndrome. It was incredible and it just fit in with the song so well! Definitely go and check it out! 


I managed to get Ellie Goulding tickets!!! I've wanted to see her live for years and now I get to! That concert's on the 19th April in Manchester so if you're going too, I might see you there!


Oooh, I've just remembered I'm going to see Chris Ramsey in 9 days! He's a comedian for those of you who don't know him and he's doing a gig in a uni near me so I get to see him! I actually saw him this time last year and it was so good! He was so so funny and he did a meet and greet after so I got to meet him as well! 


I GOT A JOB WOOOO! I now work in a hotel as a waitress because Alys (mi amigo) works there so she kindly got me a job. It's very very tough but the people are nice so I shall plod on! 


I'm now settled into my driving lessons as well! I had my 5th today and I love it so far! I'd recommend anyone to start driving, it's wicked! I'm hoping to pass my test by May, I'm not sure if it's achievable but I can hope!


I think this is the last thing I have to tell you...anyway I've applied for Lou Teasdale's Beauty School Dropout course! For those of you who don't know who Lou is, she's an incredible make up artist and hair stylist, and she's teaming up with Nicola Schuller, another amazing artist and they're putting on a 5 day beauty course in London for 10 lucky people! I'm super excited to find out whether I've been accepted or not, we shall see! 


I think that's it...if I think of something I shall add it in! Sorry that I haven't posted, I've been very busy with school, driving and work but when I sort it all out I shall be back to updating regularly and hopefully they will have better quality! 

Thanks for reading!
