Me beloved readers, please forgive me! I've not been able to post lately, this time around for reasons behind my immediate control (i.e. the Internet at home not working properly, just not to say not working at all...).... Tonight it seems to be somehow working a little better, so I'm taking my chances and trying to publish this post! This summer 2016, besides many other little things, has been peculiar musically because of the amount of liking I have developed for this goddamn teenagers idol! I guess this really proves that I am living my teenage now, so happy growing up to me and happy summer to y'all!! (PS: Happy 900th blog post to 'A song or two per day' too!)
Never have I ever thought I would be posting something like this on this blog. And yet here I am. Being well in my 20s when stuff like OneDirection and Justin Bieber (am I sure about that?) came around in the spotlight, I was old enough to be on the critical side of boy bands and trash-pop music for teenagers, especially as these recent acts play a little bit too heavy on synths and electronically-created sounds for my taste (we all love our own age's Backstreet Boys & Spice Girls, don't we?!). I've listened to a couple of Bieber songs and I would not care to repeat the experience. Pretty much the same goes for OneDirection: I was not disturbed by their music, but it wasn't something I was (and am) interested in exploring further. And here I found myself listening to Zayn Malik's debut solo album. Why? Well... I could say I don't why but it wouldn't be true. I know why, but I'm not gonna tell you my reason here, as it wouldn't be professional!! Let's just say I brought out the teenager that is inside of me, and he actually didn't dislike what he listened to. To the point that I am here, doing this. I hope you can forgive me for that: "I've done this BeFoUr, but not like this".
