I ran away

The tentative time for the party is 9 pm at Pacific Time, if you plug that into google you can calculate the time at your place. I am at the US East coast and it is now exactly noon (+ 6mins) for me. Where are you ?

Please connect me too ! :D

Sunday might be okay but Sunday is a busier day for me as a whole and I have to get up early for work on Monday, so I'm not sure....But I don't wanna be a spoilsport so if the majority chooses Sunday I'll see what I can do

#SaveFun #VoteEverglow Not Fun ! Come on, how can you vote for Fun when Everglow or Amazing Day are still in the list ?! Fun transports a beautiful melancholy vibe that you don't find in any other song of the AHFOD Era. Also, the lyrics are really beautiful and visual. This song gives me the feels, and I can't say that about any other AHFOD song ! It belongs in the top 3. In contrast, Everglow is a cheesy ballad with a lame melody that could have been sung by the likes of Shania Twain. I vote Everglow !

No it is not okay because @Jedi Leo has specified in his 10 golden rules of the Coldplay listening party: 5. No member called diogo_sg may ever be part of the Coldplaying listening party /s :P

Yeah, but that's not the mainstream opinion. I sometimes have the feeling that society forces a certain set of values/images upon us which may not always be good. To talk about a different example, young girls in our societies grow up being fed (through the media, for a large part) the idea that all that counts is to have a beautiful body shape, to be thin, and similar superficial and shallow values. Models, actresses or singers/performers are built up as role models instead of, for example, female scientists. This way girls are subtly being taught that appearance matters more than brains. Just as an example. I feel it is somewhat analogous with music. Societal "mainstream" expectations of what is good influence our tastes, thus reinforcing the mainstream idea. When a certain kind of music is all over the radio, people will start liking and expecting it.

And even if it were not for the rockier/poppier songs...I agree that a show like this doesn't need sad songs, but wtf is wrong in the eyes of those people with an upbeat soft-rock song like Yellow ? I am not ashamed to say I would prefer listening to something like Yellow to some stupid half-naked dancing and singing by the likes of Beyonce. In short, these pre-conceptions of what is deemed acceptable and what isn't make me sick.

Yeah I'm also around one of the three areas you mentioned :P
