When it knew I was in love with the moon, and, of course, with you.

I'm in an acoustic mood right now. Everything just stripped down and simple. It makes me feel like maybe the world isn't so complicated after all.

Listening to acoustic versions of songs also makes me want to sit down and learn guitar and write a song, but I know that I'd never have the talent or patience to do that. I like the idea of it, though. Shouldn't that count for something?

Some of my favorite acoustic songs:


32 Ways to Make You Smile - The Backseat Goodbye.

This song is only, like, two minutes long, but it's ridiculously adorable. It makes me want to have a song written about me (that's not just a bass line) because it's so ridiculously cute. And it makes me wonder if anyone would notice these things about me...


Hey There Delilah - The Plain White T's.

Since I've only heard Jackie sing this about 3847389 times, it's a miracle this song hasn't been ruined for me, haha. (Jackie, you know I love your version of this song. :P) This is remains the only Plain White T's song that I actually like, bytheway. Again, it's really adorable (as acoustic songs tend to be) and I wish someone would write me something this cute! Hahah.


Stay Awake (Dreams Only Last for a Night) [Acoustic] - All Time Low.

Of course, I assume you already know how much I absolutely adore All Time Low. Whenever they strip down a song and make it acoustic, it just makes me love them even more. :D Alex's voice is just magical. I actually like this song a lot better acoustic.


My Hero - Paramore.

This is an acoustic cover of the a song of the same name by The Foo Fighters. I love this version of the song, a lot. Hayley Williams really has some chops, hahah.


...
Well, that's all for now. XD
Until next time?
