OMAM

I guess I should probably at some point explain the name of my blog- Little Talks. It's the title of a song by my all-time favorite band, Of Monsters and Men. The song is what first turned me onto them, and since then I've been hooked. One of my favorite things about them, other than their music, is the fact that they are from Iceland. The fact that they come from a place that  holds so much mystery to me (I know literally nothing about the country other than this band) is really fascinating. But their music is what really got me. It has a very ethereal tone in my mind and makes me want to put on my hippie skirts, get some flowers in my hair, and dance in circles around a bonfire. To me, Of Monsters and Men offers a peaceful escape from the chaos and stress that surround every high school student. Their lyrics are exceedingly odd, which only makes them better. They are starting to gain popularity which really excites me, as they completely deserve all praise and adoration that they will receive. Some of their better  known songs are the aforementioned "Little Talks" and also "King and Lionheart." But my all time favorite song by them is "Dirty Paws."
 The lyrics to this song are some of the oddest and most indecipherable I've ever heard, but I LOVE IT!
