In an attempt to gather as many Taylor
Swift songs as possible I came across the song “Two is Better Than One” by Boys
Like Girls in which Taylor Swift features. Since then I have been compulsively listen
two both their self-titled debut album Boys
Like Girls and their second album Love
Drunk. I have always been a fan of the song Love Drunk, but I never got
into the rest of Boys Like Girls music until last year.
Yes, they make me feel like I’m in
high school again, but at the moment that is what it feels like to be into
someone while at university. You feel stupid, and dorky and awkward, but in a
sweet, optimistic way. With maturing comes responsibility and we are confronted
by complicated choices. It’s great to mature, but it’s great to hold one to
some innocence. It’s scary to think about something serious no matter how many
times my romantic heart screams at me. It’s all about balance. About falling
when you know you might get hurt.
Boys Like Girls seems to embrace the
youthful and free air of university. We are having fun, sorting out what we
want in life. At the same time the idea of romance enthrals and intrigues us. They
embrace what it is to be young and simply living your life.
“We’ll
scream loud at the top of our lungs. They’ll think it’s ‘cause we’re young, but
we’ll feel so alive…”
