Those Brits: Part Two

   Part two of my little love affair. Let's start of with a lesson in my music history. I started off middle school as one of those children who listens to all of the catchy and terrible pop songs of the month. That's not to say that I didn't listen to other music, but I did look down upon country. Now and again I do turn on the radio and admit to finding myself singing along to Pitbull(ick) but everybody has those days, especially in a town with 5 radio stations.

   Now a days I listen to what I'd like to call a diverse assortment of music....sort of. I have taken to really liking Indie music which really isn't too different from country. My taste is basically alternative. One of my favorite things is to randomly come across new artists that none of my friends know and feel like I discovered them.

   Here are a few of the British musicians that I know are popular in England but that I obnoxiously feel like I was the first person to have ever heard of them and my favorite song of theirs:

Ed Sheeran

Just every word his voice has ever sang.

    I won't list Mumford & Sons because I know they are popular and I'm not even sure why Florence and the Machine is in there. Anyways, here is my playlist of sorts!

Love,
