Swallows and Amazons: Sunday Smiles ♥

Sunday can be a grim cocktail of a hangover from Saturday evening and the impending gloom of Monday morning, however it doesn't have to be this way! While I am unable to offer a better hangover cure than Berocca and a bacon sandwich, I do hope to bring a small smile to your Sunday, making the thought of Monday morning seem a little more bearable.

The bed feels warmer sleeping here alone

I've got one hand on the steering wheel, one waving out the window

If I'm a spinster for the rest of my life

My arms will keep me warm on cold and lonely nights

There are many things that I would like to say to you, but I don’t know how… Because maybe, you’re gonna be the one that saves me

Doomed from the start we met with a goodbye kiss

Kasabian

The world is rough so if a man's gonna make it he's got to be tough

Get busy living or get busy dying

The breaking of a wave cannot explain the whole sea

And we live in a beautiful world, Yeah we do... We live in a beautiful world.

Thank you for reading my blog, I hope you have had a great week!

I think M.I.A. is wonderful, she reminds me what music should be about. It should be about making a difference, pushing for change, it should be about things that matter. This isn't always the case with music that makes it into the charts- I'm looking at you Cheeky Girls!

Her latest track 'bad girls' is supporting women's rights campaigners in Saudi Arabia fighting women's right to drive. In the UK we take this for granted but in Saudi Arabia women and men are fighting for this and I fully support M.I.A. for bringing this issue into the charts

Plus it is a flipping awesome video!
