Above & Beyond has a rep for making incredibly inspiring but also very relatable music videos.
....A few weeks ago they officially released this new track/video in Timesquare just one night prior to their sold out ABGT100 show taking place at Madison Square Garden.
I personally attended the show, as an attendee (not press) and it was an epic performance to say the least!
This music video truly shows the meaning behind the track..... without a single doubt..
Yeah, yeah, yeah I'm sure a lot of you are seeing the title of this blog post & thinking, "Please, not another thing about T Swift." But I am a true believer that music is an art and we should learn to treat it that way, with real open mindedness.
That being said, I have followed Swifts journey since the very beginning. She's the same age as me so a lot of the stages in her life she sings about are very relatable to me. All the way from the track "Tim McGraw" to "22" and even "I Knew You Were Trouble."! I even grew to enjoy finding mix tracks with her collaborations on them like "mean planes" with Wiz Khalifa. It's inspiring to see someone of our generation become such an icon, yet continues to remain so classy and alluring regardless.
It's amazing because I generally never purchase hard albums copies, I usually always buy through ITunes or Mp3 million. But it's become a tradition in my life to always physically purchase her album in stores right around the time it comes out..
When I met Landon, one of the things that he told me.. made him fall in love with me was the fact that I had the newest RHCP album on my phone...... before he did...
One of the things I fell in love with about Landon.... was the fact that he had a PLAY LIST entitled
"T-Swift Favs."
... that's right, my skateboarder, surfer, skier, 27 year old husband..... who's favorite artists are Red Hot Chili Peppers, Jimmy Buffett and Paul McCartney... actually loves Taylor Swift.
That truly shows the large audience she really does have...
So.....
......my newly-wed husband has kept up my tradition in buying hard copies of her albums by surprising me the day its released....with it next to our bed! Naturally, her newest album 1989is apart of my hard-copy collection...... I almost don't even remember how to download a CD into my ITunes anymore ;) hahaha jk.
ANYWAYS all I have to say about this album is....
WOW!!!...
....Not to mention what a crazy coincidence it is that this Boise, Idaho girl is a new resident of NYC currently.... so "Welcome To New York" is amazingly appropriate.
I've decided to make a flipagram video to portray my "Welcome to New York" experience thus far...
THANKS T-SWIFT for always being such a motivation to me and all of your other fans!
