Good Tidings...

It’s Paramore! Yes Frankie, you of all people know that there is no honorary month without giving this band a mention. I don’t know, I think Paramore is one of those youthful bands you should be acquainted with, as a youth member. They are just tainted with refreshing punk songs which you can jam to in your room...alone...if you want! I mean, I study listening to them. It’s amazing also, the lyrics written by this lot. As a ‘youth person’, I can relate and find the humour in them. Paramore has single handily understood what we young rock lovers are after, and they are gradually gaining momentum. Honestly, each album released is better than the one before.

Hayley, we love you. That big voice is just the icing on top. The guys, we love you too. So, I can’t decide my favourite song by Paramore, but “Brick by Boring Brick”, from their album Brand New Eyes, is honestly one of those songs you listen to and wonder if the artist had been spying on you. The lyrics literally define me, and at first it gave me de creepos! Anywho, I first fell in love with them when I saw their song “Misery Business”, from their album Riot, on the telly and I thought, “By George, they are cool.” Next thing I know, I have uncontrollably been able to get my hands on their albums and I have grown a great load of respect for them. So Frankie, what’s your favourite hit by Paramore?

They have had a number of chart topping hits and there is no stopping this band, formed between 2002 and ’04 in Tennessee, USA. Awards galore, collabos, tours, and festivals! They are doing it all and they are becoming like an infectious disease. So, go ahead and grab a Paramore tune and tell me later if you think I’m absolutely bonkers.

Kamoso Bagaetsho!*

*Setswana for “I’ll see you people tomorrow...yes, that’s the exact interpretation. If I'm wrong then my parents should disown me.
