reviewing the cozy potato's favourite songs!

-

Welcome back to my blog for this little extra mid-week post, once again a music one (yes, I’m obsessed, we’ve established this already!) This post is actually a collab with the insanely talented Victoria from The Cozy Potato: both her and I are big music fans so I thought it would be a fun idea to each pick 10 songs we really like and get the other to review them, in the hopes that we were able to discover new artists we really like, and songs we could add to our Spotify playlists!

I would like to thank Victoria for working with me on this, I have loved listening to your songs (without giving too much away!) I will link her blog, her collab post and her Spotify below! Please go check them out she deserves all the support!

death was arrested (north point worship)

I first listened to this song and I feel like I’ve heard it before, but I can’t pinpoint where, but this has a very chill but uplifting vibe to it, and it does put a smile on my face! I am definitely finding a place for this in a playlist somewhere.

in your arms (illenium, x ambassadors)

I do love both of these artists so seeing this collab on Victoria’s list made me very happy. I haven’t heard of this song either, but again, listening to it, I felt like I heard it somewhere. I love this one because it has an amazing beat drop, something which a lot of my favourite songs have! I can’t lie this song is very catchy too, I think it’ll be a new addition to my liked songs 😊

no time to die (billie eilish)

For those of you who don’t know, I am a BIG Billie Eilish fan, so any song of hers is right up my street! I know this came out back in February, and the day of release it was in my liked songs, and still is, I love how the song builds (which is normal for a Bond song to be honest), and the final part gives me goosebumps every time it’s so good!

where’s my love – acoustic (syml)

This song really fitted the vibe of where I was at the time of listening, it is so chill and relaxing, but reminded me of travelling (which is the vibe), so I really found this song an amazing one to listen to, once again will be another addition to my chill playlist!

sober (demi lovato)

I have heard of this one before on the radio, but never chose to listen to it (like it’s not in any of my playlists) but listening to it more opened my eyes up to it: I think it would be a good song for me to dance to (when I get back into choreography), as the song holds a lot of emotion and I really like that about it!

out of focus (chelsea cutler)

I am in love with this woman’s voice, I just think it is incredible, and I once again, really liked this song 😊 It is chill but has a good beat to it which I really like, and will be a song I will listen to in the future.

you should be sad (halsey)

Just like Billie, I am a BIG Halsey fan too! So again, I have a similar feeling to her music as I do with Billie’s. This isn’t one of my favourite Halsey songs, but it doesn’t make it any less of a tune, I love how powerful Halsey is with her music, and I am still gonna listen to her songs in the future!

oblivion (bastille)

I actually saw Bastille last December in my home town, and I loved it so much! It definitely got me back into their songs, but I actually don’t think I’d listened to this before. This is a very relaxing song and I do love the voices, but for me there’s something missing, I’m just not sure what! This is nothing against Victoria’s taste, because everyone has their own preference, and you’re not expected to like everything!

lost in the moment (nf, andreas moss)

The contrast between these 2 artists is insane for this track! I do like NF, but have never heard of Andreas Moss before, but his voice is beautiful. NF is super talented and very underrated in my opinion; I think this song will grow on me over time but my first impression is that it is an incredibly powerful song!

found (chris renzema)

I like how soft and gentle this song is, I need more of this sort of music in my life, listening to the lyrics properly makes me happy too, and I feel like that is when you can relate to the song and vibe with it!


Overall, I have loved this selection of songs, and I have definitely found a few new favourites! Again, I’d like to thank Victoria for working with me on this post, I am very excited to see what she thought of my selection of songs! I will have all of her links down below!

    Chelsea cutler and Halsey are both so talented! Right now I’m enjoying indie folk music and lots of similar chill music playlists.

summer skincare routine

-

Skincare is usually not something I care too much about, and as I do have pretty clear skin. However, I have wanted to have a routine in place, as I am trying to reduce the amount of break outs I have! I mean, what a great time to be writing this, considering I have just broken out with a few spots around my nose! I don't own a lot of skincare products, and its just because my skin rarely needs a full, deep cleanse, but these products I use on a daily basis. In the morning, I will only apply the last 3 products, just because I don't usually have a lot of time to focus on skincare! In the evenings, I start by taking off my makeup with the Garnier Micellar Water and a cotton pad, which thoroughly takes off my makeup, meaning I can skip the stage of cleansing. If I am feeling lazy however, I just remove my makeup with a makeup wipe. I then hydrate my face with the Mario Badescu Facial Spray, which helps my skin from not going dry in the summer months. This also gi...

3 ways to make your spotify 'aesthetic'

-

Music is something that makes me so happy, and you find me listening to it a lot of the time (as I’m writing this I have my summer playlist on), whether that be with my airpods in and being respectful to everyone, blasting out my records, or just having a party in my room (this happens more often than not!). I use and update my spotify account regularly, and like to keep it as ‘aesthetic’ as possible, and there are ways to do this. I will link my spotify below if you’d like any inspiration 😊 1.       Update your playlists regularly. New songs are released weekly, and you can often find songs that you forget about but never add them to playlists. By updating playlists, it means you’re not having the same selection of songs on repeat, which can eventually get boring. As well as adding new songs, removing songs you don’t like as much anymore or don’t fit a certain vibe in a playlist, it can help you to enjoy some playlists a lot more, rather than having to ski...

a letter to my 16 y/o self... what i wish i'd known (collab with iridescent.photo.blog)

  Hello and welcome back to the blog, or welcome if you are new! I’m here with another extra collab post, I have been working with Vivian and Sairah from iridescent.photo.blog to bring you this cross over collab! The girls have just finished secondary school and are about to start sixth form/college, and I have just finished sixth form, I got my A-Levels (literally yesterday as I’m writing this). So, I am writing a letter to my 16 year old self, of what I wish I’d known, and the girls will write a letter to their 18 year old selves, which they can refer back to when they are in my position! I will link all of their socials, as well as their blog and post down below! Dear Amelia, I know you’re petrified to start sixth form in a brand-new place, with so many new people, and with a dress code that you’re not so keen on! But I tell you now, you’re going to enjoy the 2 years (most of the time) and you actually really like the dress code once you put your own spin on it! The bi...
