C2C SET REVIEW - COLBIE CAILLAT - RADIO 2 STAGE

-
During C2C, I had the incredible opportunity to catch Colbie Caillat who I have supported since 2007 and my god was I emotional as I was watching her perform on both the Radio 2 Stage in The Indigo as well as in The Barrelhouse.

Colbie opened her set on The Radio 2 Stage with Fallin' For You which I have to say was stunning - the vocal tones from Colbie were fantastic and it was amazing to just listen to the song's lyrics closely and really appreciate them.
Realize was up next and my god I forgot how much I loved this song growing up and my best friend can tell you how much we used to sing this a lot in high school aha. Colbie's live version is even more stunning - it was a pleasure to witness this.
Try for me is just that song that makes me emotional due to the song's lyrics that I have to admit makes me cry and it was no different when I heard live version and the piano instrumental was beautifully selected with each version being so different.
I'll Be There, Along The Way her duet with Sheryl Crow that saw the softer side of Colbie be shown, Worth It is my favourite and I can't write anything without crying as it was just brilliant, and Pretend also featured allowing for listening to get a real taste of who Colbie is as an artist and her growth over the years which I thought was a brilliant way for her old and new fans to discover even more of her music.
Colbie closed her set with Bubbly which was the perfect closing song in my opinion as you could hear so many people in the audience singing along making for a special moment in each performance of the song I was lucky enough to witness.

Thank you Colbie for being as incredible as I hoped. Having debated to come this year due to my stress issues, I am so glad I did as I smiled for the first time in weeks.

SINGLE REVIEW - ELERI - KARAOKE

-
This Friday (11th August)  will see  Swansea based artist singer-songwriter, Eleri  release her latest single, Karaoke. Karaoke was co written with Vanessa Murray and Katie Buckland, and produced by Tim Prottey/Jones of First Time Flyers. Karaoke  has an upbeat instrumental setting the tone beautifully. The first verses sees Eleri's soft vocal at the forefront with lyrics that get you thinking of those moments at a gig that you don't think you'll ever get to see takes me back to experiencing Priscilla Block with Eleri last year, oh the memories. The second verse sees the song take another turn of when you feel like things aren't working out but you are determined to learn from the lesson it's given you. The chorus features many catchy upbeat lyrics that I could myself singing along with despite not knowing the lyrics 100% typical Kellie. There is so much passion within the lyrics and the more you hear the lyrics the more appreciation I gain. Love the summer of '

-
With Amelia Spencer about to christen her daughter, Esther it wouldn't be a soap without drama during the ceremony would it? It’s the day of Amelia Spencer’s daughter, Esther’s christening who is touched by her boyfriend, Noah Dingle’s support who has been there for her during her pregnancy and now adjusting to her journey into motherhood. It’s lovely to see how much he genuinely cares and wants the best for them both. Following Lydia Dingles help in organising the christening, she is disappointed when Samson Dingle refuses to accompany her to his daughter’s christening. Chloe Harris and Amy Wyatt are confrontational around cousins Chas and Charity. However, when Amy and Chloe arrive at Esther’s christening following Chas’ invite, Charity is less than impressed. Things escalated as Charles Anderson’s begins the christening as Charity’s feud with Amy threatens to put the service in jeopardy - part of me is like yay for the drama, but the other is like why are you doing this ,Charit

EMMERDALE REVIEW - DAN SHOWED HIS VULNERABILITY

Over the past few weeks, Emmerdale viewers have seen a different side of Dan Spencer following his daughter, Amelia's social media ordeal which has allowed for a different side of the character's development to be shown. It's obvious to me and many other viewers that all Dan Spencer has ever wanted to do was protect Amelia, but the way he said some harsh things to her in Tuesday's episode (11th July) saw the vulnerability in both characters. It was during Wednesday's episode (12th July) where Dan said "you have every right to be online" was a moment I caught myself a little emotional over as it reminded me of my own experience once again - it's clear how much Dan cares about his daughter and just wants what's best for her like parents do. The way that parents want their children to hear the truth, sometimes isn't the best way to do but on the other side sometimes it just needs to be said. There was many times during this week that I felt for Am
