The other week, I watched the movie 'Love Rosie' after having read the book (I promise that when I get my act together, I'll write a post about it) and in one of the scenes the song 'Littlest Things' by Lily Allen was playing. I love Lily Allen because she has such catchy tunes and a sweet sounding voice which is such a contrast to the actual lyrics of many of her songs (which are my favourite part of her music). Her songs are so wonderfully blunt; she's not afraid to speak her mind and doesn't care what people think of her opinions. She says things how she sees it and I think is "refreshing."
I have Lily Allen's last two complete albums, but only have a couple of songs from her first album 'Alright, still' and didn't know the song 'Littlest Things' until I watched the movie and I immediately became obsessed with it. In fact, as soon as I finished watching the movie, I bought the song and within 24 hours (less even), I had already listened to it 37 times. Now, if you were to look on my iTunes, it says I've played the song 62 times:
but that doesn't include the amount of times I've listened to it on my iPod- I just really love things song because the melody just is so easy to listen to over and over and over and over and over (etc.) again. This is definitely my favourite song of hers now, and it's actually one of her songs that are as sweet as her voice. I absolutely love the tune in the chorus and have been humming it all the time, even when I'm not listening to the song.
I can't even explain and don't even know why I love this song so much, but I do. In the last week, I've probably listened to it around 150 times (and that's actually no exaggeration and wouldn't be surprised if that is a modest guess).
