O Lullaby

It’s a pretty normal thing these days as we all have our favorite songs. I spend most of my waking hours accompanied by music. I think music has a big power to make us feel happy, gloomy, excited, sad, even feeling undefined. And now, I wanted to share my favorite songs on my playlist with you. Here they are: 1. Over You - Daughtry This song is all about a sad love relationship. I love the melody. I can feel the disappointment and the effort to keep moving on. 2. September - Daughtry I love this song. That's all.  3. Home - Daughtry "I'm going to the place where love and feeling good don't ever cost a thing" 4. Hotline Bling - Drake It's poppin'. It makes me wanna dance hahaha. 5. The Other - LAUV "Who wrote the book on goodbye?" I knew this song from my friend and ya I play it again and again. 6. Ink - Coldplay I don't know why I fell in love with this song's intro.

One of my favorite stories is A letter to Mr. Spaceman. I give it 3.5/5. If you like the masterpieces of Naela Ali, you can read Volume II and III. Happy Reading!
