Five albums from 2013 that you should exchange money for

5. 'Heartthrob' - Tegan and Sara

I couldn't stop listening to this album for the entire summer of 2013. This album is the definition of 'Pop Perfection', and I'm looking forward to the sequel. Tegan and Sara are great and you should definitely check them out, because they are the only two lesbians I'm not terrified of (just kidding) (kind of).

4. 'Samson & Delilah' - VV Brown

This is a beautiful album. Not many artists make me feel excited about their future in the music industry, but VV Brown delivered better than any postal service in the world. She has got me excited about her future. I want to marry her (no hetero).

3. 'ARTPOP' - Lady Gaga 

 Obviously.

2. 'True Romance' - Charli XCX

The fact that this album debuted at number 85 makes me feel really sad. Why do most people buy shit pop music? She is a brilliant songwriter and if I was a female popstar, this is what my first album would sound like.

1. 'Night Time, My Time' - Sky Ferreira

I don't know why you are still reading this post when you've just been given easy access to a song from the best album of 2013. I have three words for you: 'fucking', 'amazing and 'ecstasy'.

Girls are not Aloud.

I can't speak french comprehend how saddened I am about Girls Aloud officially splitting up. Soon after their last tour date in Liverpool last night, a tweet appeared on the Girls Aloud twitter saying:

" Dear Alouders, we just want to say from the bottom of our hearts Thank you!! This tour has been an amazing experience and the perfect chance to say thank you for being on this journey with us through a decade. It has far exceeded any of our dreams and we hope we are forever your inspiration and reminder that dreams really do glitter!! Your love and support will stay with us forever but we have now come to the end of our incredible time together . Love you lots."

So I would just like to say on behalf of all the gays, girls and straight men who love pop music. We love you too.  The pop world will be a very upsetting place without you because lets face it, you had some UNTOUCHABLE tunes. I have three words for you. Call. The. Shots.

There's no denying that the girls are going to be fine on their own. They're all fucking minted. Plus all of the girls except Sarah, have released solo music and in my opinion, they should carry on. Some better (Cheryl and Nicola) than others (Nadine and Kimberly). It's time for SOMETHING NEW from the girls (I'm sorry).

Here is a Spotify playlist of my favourite Girls Aloud songs (basically all the singles plus 'On The Metro' twice).
