The Peak of Music
JLS - ONE SHOT
jesus fuck.
0:00-0:35 - the piano, leading you to believe that this JLS band have made there way onto a more serious boyband love song plateau, with the likes of boyzone's 'picture of you' and take that's 'the garden'. featuring brilliant lyrics, such as "she's the kinda girl boys read about in magazine's, glossy magazines".
0:35-0:50 - the mood suddenly changes as heaven and hell mix, r&b love song to rival the works of boyz2men becomes a techno fueled ringtone classic that sounds like some form of DJ Sammy/N-Dubz collaboration.
0:50-1:18 - first sign of a chorus, it's enough to make your heartbreak with musical jo,y "you only get one shot, so watch this moment go bye bye, when love's on the line, i-e-i, i-e-i, i-e-i".
1:18-1:50 - lovely little description of how much he loves the 'hoe' in question, such as saying it's like a movie, and that he's going to love this girl until the "eh e eh e ehend".
1:50-2:32 - basically the same as chorus number 1, except it also features female backing vocals giving the "oh oh, oh yeaaah's", also, this chorus is 14 seconds longer and features more "i-e-i"'s
2:32-2:50 the bridge/breakdown portion of the song before the (anti)climactic (lack of a) keychange. "i'ma tell her she's my everything, tell her that she's all i need, that i know she's the reason that my heart beats, goes like da-da-da. da-da-da" is arguably the best thing that ever happened to music ever.
2:50-3:00 - the best thing to ever happen to music since the previous 18 seconds.
3:00-3:42 - final chorus, with added high notes and emotional air grabs and added backing vocals of "when love is on the line, when love is on the line, when love is on the liiiiiine, one shot, one chance, one dreaaam".
3:42-3:45 - WHEN LOVESSSS ON THE LINNE
3:45-3:48 - a 3 second silent period, why is this there? my thought is JLS collectively decided no one could possibly immediately go on with life after being given this wonderful moment in there life, so gave everyone 3 seconds to recover.
AMAZING

i wish
i was in skins.
i wouldn't sit in every night on my laptop, watching shite tv.
i would be living, out having adventures night after night, things wouldn't end up nice and happy, but they never do in real life anyway.
and i'd probably be more fucked up than i am just now, but i can deal with that.
i wish i had a tight group of friends, and it was just the natural that we'd spend every day together. even if we ended up at each others throats constantly, it's the kind of stability and chaos i need in my life.
