I am not taking credit for this idea because I just found it somewhere on Pinterest but I think it’s cool and experimental so I just wanted to try it. What you have to do is to put your music on shuffle and then list down the first ten songs that will play. Now, just listing them down is quite boring so I wanted to write some things about each song and what it reminds me of. I dare you to do this as well and share it with the world because... why not? You might surprise yourself in five years and be like “That song was on my playlist?! Wow I had a great taste in music.” ¯\\_(ツ)_/¯
1. La Vie En Rose – Daniela Andrade This was the first song that played and boy, oh, boy, I enjoyed it. It is very calming and I really like this version by Daniela Andrade because her voice is so soothing. It reminds me of the movie Monte Carlo which was set in Paris. So much aesthetic and giving me princess vibes. 2. The Good Side – Troye Sivan He just released this song and I’m quite surprised the first time I heard it. I was expecting some bops but this is definitely not one of those. It’s an emotional and meaningful song. I heard it’s about Connor Franta but it might be just rumour. Still, I am heartbroken because I used to ship them so hard and it’s tragic and beautiful at the same time. 3. Moon River – Audrey Hepburn I like listening to songs like this when my ears are tired of all the bops in the world. The first time I heard it was on “Breakfast at Tiffany’s” so I have no idea if that is where it originally came from, but I like Audrey’s version already so it doesn’t matter. 4. There For You – Martin Garrix, Troye Sivan Wow another song from Troye. Is it that obvious that I like listening to him? It’s a good bop and has some catchy tunes but I think he had better songs especially from Blue Neighbourhood and TRXYE. 5. ILYSB – STRIPPED – LANY I honestly didn’t know that this song has other versions so I am not sure if this one’s the original. My cousin once played another version and I got so confused because I am so used to this stripped version and I like it better anyways. 6. Superficial Love – Ruth B. I love her voice so much. There was a time when I only listened to this song on repeat as well as her other song, Lost Boy, which instantly became one of my favourites of all time. 7. Scars To Your Beautiful – Alessia Cara I also love Alessia’s unique voice. The song is beautiful as well as the message it’s trying to convey. This is a breath of fresh air from all the songs about the booties and the hoes. 8. Perfect Strangers – Jonas Blue, JP Cooper The first time I heard it was from Conor Maynard’s younger sister. Bruh, that girl can sing. I especially like how she did it slower than the original and with the use of a piano. It’s just beautiful I might have cried a bit. 9. Fresh Eyes – Andy Grammer I’ve been hearing this song everywhere when it came out and I just got curious until I looked it up. It’s so catchy and I could imagine myself dancing along to it. Embarassingly. 10. Miss Jackson – Panic! At The Disco, LOLO Great band. Great song. It makes me remember the good old times when I wasn’t into YouTube yet and I had to wait and watch the countdown on TV until its music video would play on MTV and MYX. It was the golden times. There you have it. I can’t wait to do this again next time and see how much my playlist has changed. I like this idea because I honestly can’t pick my top 10 favourite songs and this is another cool way of listing down ten songs. I am definitely going to look back at this in the future when I’m 80 and I will brag at my grandchildren how the music in my generation is better than theirs.

I have been watching YouTube videos for so long now and I am pretty sure I spend more time on it that I actually do with interacting with people in real life. Now I don’t tolerate this because I still think that it’s important to live your life and spend time with the people around you, but yknow if you’re an introvert like me and you’d rather watch a stranger off the internet than experience an awkward talk with your relative, then please be my guest.
Here are my top 10 current favourite YouTubers that you may or may not know. Now I want to give emphasis on “current”, because there are people not on the list but I still love watching them. It’s just that these ones are my current obsession and I wouldn’t miss a video once it’s up. Also, they are in no particular order. Wow I ramble a lot. Let’s just list them, shall we? 1. Liza Koshy – I mean if you watch YouTube videos and you don’t know her, what are you even doing with your life? People basically call her the Beyonce of YouTube. I know. Superwoman is the Beyonce of YouTube you might argue. Well can’t we just have two Beyonce’s of YouTube? They’re both awesome. Both funny. What I really like about Liza’s videos is that they’re short but you feel like you watched a really good 10-minute video. You have to watch them for you to understand. I wish I have Liza’s brain. Liza's channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCxSz6JVYmzVhtkraHWZC7HQ 2. Dolan Twins – I remember watching them for the first time and I cringed. I thought they weren’t for me. Young girls are obsessed with them and I was so confused like they weren’t even funny. Yeah I judged them with that one video I watched. Then one time I saw them again on my recommendations and I thought “oh the cringey boys again” but I still clicked on it and boy oh boy that was the best decision I’ve ever made. I ate my words. These twins are hilarious af. If you don’t know them, I suggest you go watch their tooth extraction or roasting each other videos first. Don’t make the same mistakes I did. These twins are precious. Don’t attack them. Or we will attack you. The Dolan Twins' channel: https://www.youtube.com/user/TheDolanTwins 3. shane – I used to not like Shane’s videos as well. You know, the ones on his main channel Shane Dawson TV. Idk I think they’re just not for me, the videos are too much for me. But this Shane now, I love him more. Shane Dawson TV scares me but this Shane is my safe place. I watch every single video he puts up and I get excited every time I see him on my subscription box. He never fails to make me laugh. Not just smile. Laugh. Shane's channel: https://www.youtube.com/user/shane 4. Safiya Nygaard – I’ve always known Saf since her Buzzfeed days and I’m actually glad that she left. I mean I love Buzzfeed because Try Guys, Worth It... you know. But when Saf made her own channel, I appreciated her more. She’s currently the most creative YouTuber that I know of with her unique and original ideas. Her videos are always so interesting and a must-watch. She’s so smart and I could literally listen to her talk for hours. Saf's channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCbAwSkqJ1W_Eg7wr3cp5BUA 5. David Dobrik – I discovered Liza first and then I learned that her boyfriend is also a YouTuber. I never had Vine okay, don’t give me that look. I don’t really like watching vlogs because they’re usually long and I’m not really that interested to see how they eat or walk so I didn’t have high hopes when I decided to check out his channel. But let me tell you gurl, Liza and David are the perfect couple. I like watching Liza’s videos as much as I enjoy David’s vlogs. They’re also short (4:20 to be exact, I know) but like Liza, it feels like you watched a really good 10-minute video. The time you spent watching their videos is never a wasted time. That’s how good they are. David's channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCmh5gdwCx6lN7gEC20leNVA 6. Fancy Vlogs By Gab – I am aware that she has a channel with her twin – Niki and Gabi. Although my personality and style is more like Niki, my inner girly side can’t get enough of Gabi. She’s literally like a princess to me. Her videos are just so aesthetically pleasing and calming in the eyes. I used to like Sharpay Evans' character who likes everything pink so it’s no surprise that I like Gabi too. It’s weird tho because if you see me, it doesn’t show at all. People even mistake me for a tomboy because I wear the same set of shirt and jeans every time. Gabi's channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCLGe0PxyRFWmXVGJKq_gGvw 7. Jenna Marbles – Jenna is one of the legends who started YouTube. You might think that her spark is gone but no, her videos are just getting better and better each time. She could just sit and stare into the camera and I’d still laugh. That’s how entertaining she is. She is the mom of YouTube. She doesn’t give a fvck which basically means she’s the female counterpart of Shane. I love my parents. Jenna's channel: https://www.youtube.com/user/JennaMarbles 8. nigahiga – Another legend whose spark is still sparking. Ryan was one of my faves then, he’s still one of my faves now. Every single video he puts up is gold. He’s super creative and you could see that he puts so much work and effort into making his videos. He doesn’t need to get involved in drama and do clickbaits to be relevant. Seriously what did we do to deserve him? Ryan's channel: https://www.youtube.com/user/nigahiga 9. Bretman Rock – I don’t curse. It’s not because I think it’s a sin but it’s just that I’m not used to it. Yes I have the guts to type it but you can’t really make me say it. So when I found Bret, I didn’t know if I’d be comfortable to watch his videos but I’m glad I still decided to check him out. He’s one of those people that I find hilarious even when they curse. Like I am so comfortable I wanted to be his BFF so bad. He has the sass I never had. He’s my spirit animal tbh. Bret's channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC3EFKdXAU99j3ppGgvTz7XQ 10. Zoella – She’s one of the few beauty gurus I watch. I find Zoe to be super genuine whenever she talks in her videos. She’s like a big sister to me. Other beauty gurus are overwhelming for me like no offense but they seem like they’re only in it for the views. Zoe, on the other hand, just seems to be doing her own thing. I know I said I hate long videos but hers are an exception. She could talk about her favourite plate for 30 minutes and I honestly would still watch it. Zoe's channel: https://www.youtube.com/user/zoella280390 There you go. These are my current favourites. I watch other YouTubers too and I like discovering new ones everyday so how about you? Who are your Top 10? I hope this list helped you if you're new on YouTube and you're looking for people to watch. I know this post is kinda long. I have the motivation to write today, which is very rare, so I am making the most out of it. Huehue. |
