Do it all over again

I have never been a fan of any of the 'High School Musicals.' I watched the first one when it was released (I think I was eleven) and I didn't see what the big fuss was about. However, I've finished watching the British series 'Britannia High' which is (in my opinion) an improved version of 'High School Musical.' It is about a group of students who attend a performing arts college and of the dramas between the friends/ rivals, with occasional songs that are set in a music video style. The story line is much more complex and deeper than High School Musical and the songs are so much better too- in fact, it can be seen as completely different- so much for that comparison.

Anyway, there are such fantastic songs in the series, which I've been listening to over the past few days, one of which is called 'Do it all over again'  which is sung by the 'mean' girl character, Claudine (played by Saphire Elia), when you realise that she actually is an insecure person who just wants to find her place in the world and to be loved. I've listened to this song on repeat, it's poppy and just stays in your head- the lyrics are excellent and so is the tune- I really love it and despite listening to it probably around fifty times in the past two days, I am not sick of this song one bit and I agree with the lyrics completely.

So, not only is the soundtrack really enjoyable to listen to, the series was nice and easy watching, and at times it is really corny, but believe me, it was a welcome distraction from the stack of essays that I needed to write.


Some of the other songs that I really like from the 'Britannia High' soundtrack that I recommend are:
-Growing Pains
-The things we don't say
-Proud
-Confessions
-Without you
