Remember there is a YouTube playlist which includes all these wonderful songs from each month, and also a Spotify playlist which you can find via searching for ‘jodieharris15‘.

ALL MY LIFE – FOO FIGHTERS
“I love it but I hate the taste, weight keeping me down…”

We all need some Grohl in our lives.
Sometimes we need to just shout lyrics at the top of our lungs and get all that angst out. This is such a tune to do that. Have to admit, I did feel like an absolute rockstar when this song came on during a drive back from Birmingham in a convertible!
This is probably the heaviest song on this list; it’s a classic Foo Fighters but if you’re looking to get into heavier stuff, perhaps start here? I’ve no idea haha!!

COLD HEART – TYLER BRYANT & THE SHAKEDOWN
“She could tell that I was dreaming, I was scheming how to get her with me…” 

Gosh, I wish I was Tyler Bryant SO BAD!! I know there’s a lot of Tyler Bryant on this playlist now but, I’m enjoying it – I can’t help that he writes incredibly addictive music. Doesn’t help the fact he’s also talented and gorgeous ❤
This little banger is sex on legs… makes me do things with my hips that I didn’t even know that I could do. I never tire of this tune, as soon as it comes on I have to stop what I’m doing and dance – even in public! I hope it gives you the same feeling as it does me. 

SURVIVE – MASON HILL 
“Try to shut me down, but I’ll go on and on and on and on and on…” 

Mason Hill are one of my fave new bands. They’re a band that I listen to, and just think “TALENT!”. I love that vibe from bands. It’s very relatable to me at this current moment in time; it’s a song I’d like to send to a lot of people and be like “hey, you hurt me.. but I will survive”, but it’s also a song I’d play to myself because no matter how many times I do get shot down, I always get back up again – and what better tune to have that connection with, than an absolute gem written by an incredible band.

WANDERLUST – JAMES BAY
“‘I just want to be in the light, be in the light that surrounds you…” 

I used to listen to James Bay a lot after the night of 14th Feb 2017.
Anyway, before I get sentimental…. sometimes one just needs a little “Bay” in ones life. I’ve had a bit of a big ass reality fish slap in the face, and it hurts. For now at least, I have some amazing memories I can look back on when listening to James Bay. This tune is just making me very happy, chilled, calm etc at the moment and I seriously need emotions like that in my life right now. It’s a totally gorgeous song, that makes me feel so beautiful and puts a genuine smile on my face, I love it! ❤

HARD ROAD – STOP, STOP!
“All that wish is getting closer now, so you don’t think that it’s over and over…”

I went to see the boys play in Birmingham at the beginning of the month – I’ve not seen them for 8 months; which is a kind of big deal because last year I was seeing them at least twice a month!!
Anyway, when they played this song, Jacob looked at me directly when singing the line “you’ve got to trust in who you are, stand up and get it“… and it just meant a lot to me.
It was something I really needed to hear, from someone I really look up to.
It was lovely to hang out with the mofos again – so many people say “you hang out with such motley crews”, like YES.. we are, but we’re also a little family and one that is there for each other.

SSSHHHH……… I’M ADDING AN EXTRA!!!! SSSHHHH

SHOT AT REDEMPTION – H.E.A.T
“I’ve been strucked out, lying on the crowd with the bitter taste of loving in my mouth…”

This is such a chant!! This is totally my revival song. My “I’m going to rebuild myself and come back a better & stronger person!”. I really am going to pick myself up, dust myself off and get back out there… but in a new way. A new Jodie.
So, next time you see me… imagine this song playing in the background 😉

I hope you have enjoyed this blog, there’s been some proper tasty tunes this month! Please do stalk me on social media – I’m making a lot of cocktails this summer, so you might wanna watch me screw up measurements 😉 I’ve also got 2 new Rock Nights I’m almost ready to announce… eeeekkk!!!
