Before I start rambling on.. Merry Christmas everyone! :D
Hope everyone had a good one :)
I love music so when something
different and new comes along such as the lovely Ariana Grande, who collaborates with Larry Lovestein (who happens to be Mac Miller), to sing the Elf made famous christmas classic (with slightly creepy
lyrics..), 'Baby it's Cold Outside' I kinda got a little
excited as well as surprised.
Following Miss Grande on Twitter on Instagram it
was clearly obvious that they were gonna collaborate, as well as
mentioning it in this interview (2:30)
(I noticed a lot of shipping from the comments which made me giggle). From my
point of view this was a complete surprise and I was really looking
forward to seeing what they would be singing together.
Comparing to 'She & Him' rendition, which I should add had the perfect video that went with it, which was quick and up beat and Zooey Deschanel in Elf with Leon Redbone version which is close to the original and it has to be my favorite christmas song; Grande and Miller put their own spin on the song making it slow with the soft piano playing in the background, I think i'll be playing this one every season.

When I first heard it I thought the piano
solo lasted quite a while but it was ever so soothing but then Ariana voice
came in then Miller's, to be honest I think this is a match made in
heaven. <3 From the comments on youtube you can tell the mixfeeling from this colab, but the softness and sweetness in Ari's voice and Mac's slick almost raspy ('I just woke up') voice, they just go. It's almost that bad boy + good girl image they're trying to portray, I love it!
Hope all is well and ttyl <3
Songs of the Week:
I got 'Take Me Home' for christmas, gotta say I can't turn it off, it's been re-play! :/
Gotta love the 1D boys ;)
Talking about Larry Lovestein you guys should check out Larry Lovestein & The Velvet Revival extra bonus it's free download! Defo not the mac miller you're thinking of, it's very quirky and has this jazz feel to it.
Also you should check my playlist on my youtube, I tend to update my favorites list I can't stop listening to The Strokes lately. When Spotify finally comes to Singapore or when I finally get back to the UK i'll make sure i'll get a playlist up on my blog :)
