A New Favorite!!!

Whenever I search for new music that will interest me I listen for a few key parts. First, does it have well- written and meaningful lyrics? Second, does it have a good beat and rhythm? And third, is it something that I can relate some of my experiences to and/or does it describe how I'm feeling? I know there are more points than just those three that make up a good song but those are just the top ones that I consider. Recently, I found a song that only really has two of those three things, yet it's still a great find! Battle Scars, by Lupe Fiasco and Guy Sebastian, doesn't really present lyrics that I can relate to. However, the song definitely has well written lyrics as well as a good beat. I love this song and I've listened to it so much in the last week that it's one of my favorites at the moment. Battle Scars not only soared to the top of my favorites list but has also showed me that it doesn't have to relate to how I'm feeling for it to be a good song. I'm not sure on the true meaning of this song, but whatever it may be I'm sure it speaks to someone. Music is a powerful tool and I believe that this song, with its well- written lyrics and sound that shows the artists' exquisite talent, is a great example of good music! If you're interested in a song that actually stands out then I think I just discovered your next find!
