Seeing the title of this post there is either going to be 3 types of people: the first type of person will be a fan of the Twilight series that will be interested in this just because Breaking Dawn is in title. The second type will be the person who thinks Twilight is a cult and probably will judge me for even bringing up the movie. And finally, the third type of person will just read because they don't care about anything but finding new music. Whatever the case may be, even though I could go on and on about vampires and werewolf's and how bad of an actress I think Kristen Stewart is, i'm here to discuss music and I think this album has a lot to offer.
I've said it before and I'll say it again, "It Will Rain" by Bruno mars is an amazing song. It's not the typical "I'm going to tell you how great you are and how much I adore you," love song. This hauntingly beautiful ballad of never-ending love focuses on what would happen if the person he loved walked away from him. What makes it different is it's kind of a gloomy love song while still getting the "I love you" point across. At Bruno Mars smooth vocals just take the song to a new level, making my heart melt like a teenage girls when they see Taylor Lautner without a shirt.
Another song that caught my attention was "A Thousand Years" by Christina Perri. Honestly I wasn't a big fan of her first sing "Jar of Hearts" I thought the lyrics were 6th grade poetry level and the song was just to depressing for me. That being said "A Thousand Years" brought Perri into a positive light for me, this song was obviously perfect for the movie but also a nice love song to listen to in general.
All in all, I love all the Twilight albums. Their edgy sounds and well written lyrics always caught my fancy. I'd say this album is worth listening too, but you might listen to previews before actually buying the album. I think the music in it only appeals to certain people seeing as it is out of the norm.
Other songs I recommend:
- The Joy Formidable, "Endtapes"
- Iron & Wine, "Flightless Bird, American Mouth (Wedding Version)"
-Aqualung & Lucy Schwartz, "Cold"
