The Killers Blog and Journals

I decided to list my 10 favorite songs. You know, take a break before I start writing anymore stuff. This right here is my break :)

#10: Sex On Fire by Kings Of Leon

I know this song is one of the most popular songs on the album, well it's a single, but this song is something that I don't think I will ever get sick of. Here and there probably, yes, but I love the vibe this song brings to me, and it's hard to explain, but I think it's very different therefore amazing.

#9: You Are The One by Shiny Toy Guns

This song is electronic in ways, mixed with male and female vocals. It's an upbeat song with a kind of toned down mood that it creates. I listened to this during the summer, so that makes me think of it as a summer song, but I personally think it's more of something you'd listen to during the winter. This song is not old to me at all.

#8: Talk by Coldplay

Once again, another popular song. I had always heard of this, but never knew what the name was. I stumbled upon it one day and I couldn't stop listening to it. Coldplay's music is truly genius. I always knew that but this song sent my knowings over the top. I love this song so much and I think it's truly incredible.

#7: Born For This by Paramore

This song is so high energy, and that's why I love it. All of RIOT! is a work of art, but this song stands out to me. The music behind the lyrics is really fun to listen to. It's a great song to jump around to, and it can get you pumped for something!

#6: Guilty Pleasure by Cobra Starship

Okay, I swear Viva La Cobra is one of my favorite albums. All of the songs are awesome and fun to listen to. Cobra Starship's Hot Mess album is exactly the same, and I think some of those songs are growing on me to be favorites too. We'll see! I love this song because it's FUN. Guilty Pleasure will always hold a special place in my heart :)

#5: Running From Lions by All Time Low

I really like how it starts out with acoustic guitar, and then changes into normal guitar. This song is probably one of the quickest to become my favorite. The first or second time I listened to it, I knew I was addicted and that it was already one of my favorite songs. I don't know how to describe it, but it's kind of different from all the other All Time Low stuff in my opinion, but in small ways.

#4: There's A Good Reason These Tables Are Numbered Honey, You Just Haven't Thought Of It Yet by Panic! At The Disco

Well, you all may know that I am very fond of AFYCSO, but this song from the very beginning stood out to me and I love every bit of it. The beat and the vibe it creates is what gets me. That part is amazing. And not to mention Brendon's voice sounds great on this track. But his voice sounds great on every track too, in my opinion. :]

#3: Speed Of Sound by Coldplay

Another popular Coldplay song, but seriously. One time I started crying while listening to it. It brings back great memories and the whole thing is just outstanding. The music, lyrics, the overall sound. I love this song so much and whenever it pops up on my iPod while on shuffle, I make sure to listen to it.

#2: Smile Like You Mean It by The Killers

This song is very solemn. I like the music it's put to, and I could listen to this anytime. For this song, it's the feeling it creates just like some of the other song's vibes. The song isn't very rock or pop I guess, it's different and undescribeable.

#1: Mr. Brightside by The Killers

Mr. Brightside is my number one favorite song of all time. It's so addicting!!! It's pretty upbeat and the music along with it just gets me obsessed. I've listened to this song so many times and it's not old. Every time I listen to it, it gives me the same feeling. I LOVE THIS SONG <3

Now that you know about my favorite songs, I want you to know a bit about me.

So, I'm Ashley and I am only 13 years old. I will be 14 next month! Yeah, I'm pretty young. I don't know if that changes anything or not... I love writing and film. In my spare time I like to make videos along to music. They're all up on YouTube. Let me know if you'd be interested in seeing them :) Some are better than others. :/ As for writing, I don't think I'm the best at actually putting it all down and making sense with it I guess? I do know that I have very different ideas for things, and that's why I'm so excited to start writing new things. I really like meeting new people and finding new music. I am always almost on the internet, but I do have a life outside of that too, haha :D My favorite bands are Cobra Starship, Paramore, Panic! At The Disco and All Time Low. I've been with Paramore the longest out of the rest. My weakness is math, and my strength is English. I am in a more advanced English class while I was put into a less advanced math class. I fixed that all though, and it seems better. Haha so I'm not in the terrible easy math anymore :/ That's just a bit about me. This was an extremely random post and the next post I do will be the start of my threeshot, and then Mysterieux! In between new stories, I will be doing one, two or three shots. :)Thanks so much for reading my work. I can't thank you all enough!

-Ashley

P.S. I LOVE cereal & XXX Vitamin Water. Not together of course, haha.

Roxy has some pretty cool pics she just got, im not sure if they're up yet, but if they're not u should def keep an eye out for them. Lucky bitch is on vacation atm lol.

I can't believe how many peeps looked at that video of Brendon singing unchained melody.  Well I can cause look/listen to him, but still... Actually gave me an idea for an interesting poll, see how much buzznet peeps really like him :)

Oh speaking of polls Roxy has one up, "which twilight guy is hotter?" You guys should vote. I picked Robert. Taylor's good lookin & all but Im more of a vamp kinda gal.

Alright, well, my computer's pissin me off, slowest oldest computer you'll ever see, so for now im outta here.

{Last Ipod check: womanizer}

P.S. I really need a catch phrase or somethin. idk  wat but somethin cool to sign off with. Like, over & out, or...............yea got nothin.  But if u do, u should let me kno ;)

The gospel known as Stephenie Meyer's website has announced the official tracklisting for the New Moon soundtrack. If you're an indie hipster music snob (circle one or all), brace yourself for disgust and Twitter-trending outrage. If you're a common scene kid who is really into Twilight, brace yourself for bewilderment. And if you're completely indifferent, ask yourself: Does a movie soundtrack really have enough power to sway a generation of Young Adult readers to an entirely different genre of music? Here we go...

Ok another re-write. My imagination is just drained with this one so I'm starting again, from the very start!!

Even though she doesn't believe in love he's determined to call her bluff

The sun light spilled into the room and I groaned as I reluctantly opened my eyes. Sophie stood hands on her hips "Holly you've go to get up! Encase you have lost your brain with last night's festivities YOU HAVE WORK!" Sophie yelled. I sat up and cursed last night Pre 'it's my 20^th birthday on Monday' party that was originally meant to be a Mexican meal until jack and Gabe crashed it with bottles of tequila. I jumped out of bed and hurried to the shower, I had become an expert at looking awake and perfectly fine after a heavy party, a shower, lots of eyeliner, lots of coffee and water and food and if all else failed call in claiming a sickie day but i refused point blank to miss today.

Down stairs Laura, Sophie and grace were sat in the living room eating breakfast "Ahh the morning after, how are you?" I looked at Laura while pouring myself a coffee "What exactly happened last night all I remember is a food fight with Taco's and Gabe and jack showering people in tequila" I said before downing some coffee. "There was the food fight, then we went to h.wood and meet up with the rest of our fellow partier's and Gabe, jack, Alex and Nate had a dance off, Gabe won so he then poll danced." I chuckled as Grace filled in the rest, "More tequila shots and then we went home.... I think Vicky has it all on camera" We all looked at grace and groaned. "Not Good!" Laura exclaimed. "What did you get up to?" Grace asked "That we didn't see" I added Laura scowled "Nothing!!" It was just then the apartment buzzer went off, "Saved by the buzz" I muttered answering the intercom phone "Hello". "Well hello party queen I'm here to drive you and Laura into work". I smiled and put the phone down "Laura, Cam is here to drive us to work". I yelled grabbing my bag and laptop case, "Good luck and have fun!" Sophie and grace yelled as we slammed the door shut.  

Despite the night before, by the time we had stopped at star bucks and got to work Laura and I were totally buzzed. We hurried up the stairs to be meeting by "The dragon" as everyone called her.

"This is a chance for photography and words and your creativity to come out and play if I don't see that in the final piece I'll fire you; no I'll fire both of you." The dragon stormed off down the corridor, Laura and I exchanged looks before walking into the studio. The studio looked crazy, half of it had been covered in sand and rocks and looked like the desert, there was a miniature big wheel covered in fairy lights "Wow it's just amazing! Like a movie set!" Laura gushed. I nodded in agreement, kind of stunned at its overnight transformation. I took a sip from my hot coffee and nearly chocked when Brandon flowers walked along the hallway and waved as he slipped into the green room. Laura stood looking so excited she might burst, we both turned the other way clasped hands a squealed silently as possible. You see we were covering a new festival the killers had set up called "Joy Ride", so we had a few bands from the line up and the killers in for an interview and shot.

Laura was busy interviewing the Cab while I was photographing You me at six, Josh was swinging from one of the compartments on the mini- big wheel, max was wrapping matt up in fairly lights and Dan and Chris were busy acting like cave men, but I did get some excellent shot's and some particularly wonderful comments from josh, but we won't go into that. I was about to swap with Laura when I heard a voice that made me blood turn cold and made me want to run away and hide under my duvet at home. As I felt slightly faint I told myself to concentrate but as I neared to were the cab were stood, my worst fears were confirmed, I just prayed to god when flicking through my shots he (A) didn't recognise me (B) If he did he would ignore me OR (C) Brandon would come to my saviour wanting to see the photo's. I avoided his eyes while talking to the "Alex's" - there are so many of them - cash, Bryan and Laura. When I thought I was safe I was busy changing my filters for the pictures and hunting down more film, as I rushed down the corridor into the studio and bumped into someone. I looked up hoping it was anyone but him, but luck wasn't on my side. "Sorry" I said quickly hurrying to pick up my film, he bent down to help me and that inevitable "hands touched at the same time" thing happened. "Have I met you before?" I shook my head "I don't think so" I lied, averting my eyes from his. As I got up and hurried off to find Laura, I cursed going out last night. Brandon flowers stood with the rest of his band dressed in his infamous blazer with feathered shoulders I handed her some film "HAVE FUN!" I yelled hurrying to find the cab, "Right, how about a little party huh?"

It was so busy and crazy, mainly because I was juggling doing work and avoiding him, as I ran past Laura having fun with the killers, into the store cupboard yet again hunting for film and anything with feathers and glitters that screamed "las Vegas" at me. I was thanking myself for wearing my little scarlet red ballet flat's instead of heels when the lights flickered and went out. "Oh fuck, well that's just fucking brilliant! Just great!!!!" I groaned. I ran my hand along the racks till I bumped into one of them, "OW!" I squealed before muttering obscenities. I finally found the light booster to find myself face to face with someone I had been trying desperately to ignore for so long.

"It's you isn't it?" He asked before chuckling "Wow Holly, you've changed!" I gave up the game for then on in. "What do you want?" I asked and saw him frown "To say hi, to be nice" I sighed "Hi ......" I said before rooting round for the burlesque fans. "Are these what you're looking for?" He asked holding the fans up, I snatched them from his hands, as I was about to walk away his hand's curled round my wrists, "Aren't you gunna put a little show on with them like you did...." I cut him off "I think you might have mistaken me for someone else" I told him. "Nope, it's defiantly you, Holly I know you to well" I laughed "Oh really" I rose my eyebrow's daring him to prove it. "Your favourite candy is gummy bear's 'cus they don't argue back when you bite their head off, you where brought up in some little green place called Somerset and moved to London when you were 18, then you moved here , Your favourite English band is friendly fires, you adore alfresco food and samba music, you love carnivals, Your first interview ever was with Bloc party, your first gig was cobra starship, your mum brought you up single handed" I stopped him " I don't need my life story , I am the one living it" I told him. We starred at each other, This time I couldn't avoid his eye's dark brown and always had that effect of clearing my mind "I know one thing, you've always been a she wolf, trying to act tough and ballsie when you're not" He whispered and I glared at him, I wanted to hit him but there was literally no gap between us, His arm was softly round my waist and my nails were dug into his shoulder's so I could cause him some pain if he tried anything. His thumb brushed my bottom lip lightly. I froze instantly "Brendon...." I warned

your questioning human nature? WHAT?!

to all who think 'wtf is she on about?'

im on about kiki kannibal, and her pathetic attempt at an intelligent journal.

questioning the meanings of life and human nature? thats something your never going to find the answer to. its true, theres nothing stranger than people.

and dont even think im a coward for not saying this to her face, im not her friend on here, even though shes on y friends list, and it wont let me comment, so ill just make a journal.

its very small minded to wonder. 'why.'

you can ask all your questions, but you wont find all your answers.

why did 9/11 happen?

hmm, give me a minute to dig up the fuckers that done it to ask them.

certain people, have this murderous streak in them. a hidden agenda, filled with anger and grudged hate.

and the people, with the cleverest, most deathly agendas...are never found out...until its to late.

they hide it with kind deeds and forced smiles. you'll never know.

you ask why people murder others?

you ask why people molest kids?

its so different to any other answer to a question.

its so complicated, words cant even describe it.

think about nature. why do leopards kill zebras? they do it to live.

why do people kill people? revenge? love? jealousy?

i know i must sound like a right bitch here. but when im older, i plan to study forensic psychology, then, perhaps ill find the answer,after about 7 years studying, and working with peadophiles, killers, theifs, to find out why. geT inside the criminal mind. its a LOT of work, but ill do all that, just so i can tell you why people kill? and molest? ill do all that, and send you the answer?

JUST FOR YOU? CAUSE YOUUUUU, ARE WONDERING WHY PEOPLE KILL?!

fuck you.

you wanna know why people kill? go find the fucking answer, instead of writing pathetic journals about how saddened you are about the things that happen in this world.

theres nothing stranger than people.

you remember that.

BITCH.

this verse is over
