Review: Circles by Yours Truly

Hello,


Looking for a new song to add to your summer playlist? Well, look no further than Yours Truly's latest single, 'Circles'. The Sydney based pop-punk band have just released it and let me tell you, it's guaranteed to make you want to get up and dance.

The music video is amazing too and here I am going to do a little review of it.


It begins with the instruments and microphone being set up and lights turning on so you feel like you are waiting to watch a concert. We then see a close-up of lead vocalist Mikaila as she starts singing and the other members - Lachlan, Teddie and Bradley rocking out on the guitars and drums. They are each standing in front of lights and different coloured backgrounds which I think suit this season. I love that their outfits are colour-coordinated and Mikaila's make-up is perfect, she looks beautiful no matter what! The scenes cuts to full shots of each member individually, then to close-ups of their faces and finally to a view of the whole group. The location looks like a type of empty warehouse or hall and I think it is a great place for a band to play. In some shots, we see the camera crew filming which feels like we are getting a behind-the-scenes look at the video. I can imagine being in there, standing to one side, dancing along as they film. It's cool how the song is called Circles and occasionally, the screen rotates in circles. What a great way to make it more creative and interesting. Towards the end, other young girls and women are seen in front of the coloured backgrounds singing along and dancing. They all look like they are having so much fun and the use of balloons is great. I'm sure all of Mikaila's fans will recognize one of those beautiful women, I sure did and think it's very special that she was included.










Circles is an extremely catchy tune. I've probably listened to it ten times and even as I sit here writing this, I'm bopping along. This is the kind of song I would play at a party and I get serious summer vibes from the video.





Yours Truly and anyone else involved in the making of the song and music video have done a wonderful job. Congratulations!

Welcome back Justice Crew!

                                           Photo credit to @Justicecrewofficial Instagram Justice Crew are a dance and music group who won Australia's Got Talent in 2010 and went on to release many amazing songs including number one hits Boom Boom and Que Sera . After their tour in 2019, they took a long break and now they are back!  I have been a huge fan of them since the beginning and have been to a lot of their shows, so when they announced they were performing a show in February, of course I was excited and attended with my friend. There was a huge crowd there to see them, which surprised a few people, including maybe the guys themselves. After six years, they probably felt rusty, but they were actually amazing as always. It was so cool to see them on stage again and here all the hit songs the number ones and  Everybody. It's so crazy how even now, after six year...

Light in the Darkness

  We all carry a little darkness. Moments we don’t speak of. Storms We face. Shadows we walk through quietly.   But that doesn’t mean our light is gone.   Even on heavy days, when it feels like someone has punched us in the chest, or everything feels hopeless. We work. We care. We laugh. We create. We shine, like the brightest star in the sky.   No matter what happens today – even if it’s messy, or lonely, or full of tears - The sun will rise in the morning. Like it always does. Like we always do.   Because light doesn’t have to shout. Sometimes it just keeps showing up, quietly. One bright beam at a time.

Virtual Stop #1: Lymington - A Seaside Gem Discovered by Chance

Welcome to my virtual travel series, where I explore beautiful corners of the world without leaving my bed. Inspired by TikTok livestreamers and walking tour videos, these posts capture what I see, feel and learn as I journey through new places from afar.  I wasn't planning to visit Lymington - not virtually, not in any way. I had never heard of it before watching my favorite singing buskers livestream from the quaint little town in the UK and now I'm captivated. The charm of Lymington unfolded before my eyes: Cobbled pathways, rows of boats bobbing gently at the marina and friendly locals to stop and enjoy the music. I experienced it from my bed.  There is something so welcoming about the town, The people passing by weren't just polite - they were supportive. Some clapped, others left kind words or a few coins, and a few even stayed for songs. There are three ladies who go often to support the guys. They have all been following them on TikTok for a while and met each other...
