Why I Love ATL So Much....

As you obviously know, I'm in love with a band from Baltimore called All Time Low. They have really inspired me and their music helps me in so many ways. As you may also know, I have a humongous temper (stupid character trait from my dad) and I sometimes lose control when I'm upset. I have found that ATL's music almost immediately calms me down. When I feel like I'm about to start screaming or even get violent, I just turn on their music. It makes me happy. The lyrics understand me on a different level. In a lot of their songs, they are blatantly honest, make fun of the fucked up society we live in and they look at things in a darker way most of the time... They just take the words out of my mouth sometimes. I know I shouldn't always think of the sad stuff & society in a bad way, but to be honest, I'm just tired of people telling me to think differently. I'm so relieved that someone can actually sing songs about the bullshit of people & life, have lyrical diversity and change their sound so often.

I have a lot of respect for people that have good grammar and good writing skills. One of the things I admire most about songs is lyrics, it's just the thing that grabs me.

When people can sing amazing live (on key and everything), my respect for them just escalates so much. These are the people that deserve to make it big in the music industry. Alex has a very peculiar voice. It's different and people either adore it or hate it... All I know is I've never heard the kid mess up a note and I'm one of those people that adore his voice. I usually get attracted to different voices because of my own, being so different from most girls. His voice is unique and gives me hope!

Alex Gaskarth. Jack Barakat. Zach Merrick. Rian Dawson. I love every single member in the band. They are so into what they do and you see how much they love it when they perform. They've been in this band for atleast 7 years now and they almost never stop touring because they love it so much. They never set out on this journey for fame, it was just something they enjoyed doing, now THAT is something I loooove about them. They've barely had any radio play at all and they have this huge fanbase... Very understandable. They are insane!!! They do not give a fuck and if I'm going to say this about anyone, it's going to be them. I love how carefree they are... It's something I've always admired, to a certain extent of course! They're so funny, awkward and to the point :)

Hehehe, I don't know why I wrote this down... I guess I just felt like it!
