Mayday Parade

Mayday Parade are a pop rock band from Tallahassee, Florida. Mayday Parade have released one EP and two studio albums, A Lesson In Romantics (2007) and Anywhere But Here (2009).

I personally have only heard their second studio album Anywhere But Here (2009) and I really love it, it is a fun album, it has strong pop punk influences thats for sure.

Kids In Love, is probably my personal favorite song off of the album. I am actually listening to that particular song as I write this, I really like the song! These guys have an insane song writing ability as well as musical ability! As I listen to Kids In Love, the song reminds me of All Time Low. Very "teen" based, and I say that because most of their songs are about things that teens deal with on a regular basis "summer was full of mistakes that we wouldn't learn from" and if you really think about it, it takes teens more than one time to learn from a mistake! It sure takes me a few mistakes to learn from them!

I say, get on iTunes, get on Amazon or get down to your local CD store, and check out Mayday Parade, they are awesome musicians! Check them out!

Lyrics and good lyrics

So, there is a big difference between just lyrics, and then good lyrics. And my goal for tonight, is to explore the differences and learn about them myself whilst trying to teach you :)


Lyrics are a very essential part to a song. Listen to just about any song, and you will notice lyrics weather these lyrics be "Like a G6" or "All the small things, Truth Care, Truth Brings" Lyrics are a very very key part to just about every song.

So tonight, we are both going to learn about lyrics, writing good lyrics, and what really makes a chart topper etc
