An Update On My Obsession With Sparks, Do I Still Love Them ?
Hi guys, hope you’re all doing well. Today, I will talking about my obsession with Sparks . I did a post about them a little while ago. It was a very full post, if you know what I mean, I talked a lot about their music, I was talking about all my favourite albums, I even talked about funny interview moments . I just expressed my love for them as a group .I just did a bloody ten hour essay . I kind of went off topic and I started talking about 80s pop culture, self love, growing up, weird dreams and weird celebrity encounter stories and stuff like that. It’s very easy for me to go off topic and start talking about other subjects, I’m really sorry if it annoys you, I just have so much to say .
Since I last did that post, I still love them. I still love their music, if anything, it gets better with time . I’ll just have some days where I will sing and dance to Sparks around my house and I will drive my family insane, haha, that’s just what happens when no one’s at home, but my family loves them too so they’re not really bothered with me doing so.
I just realised how much they inspire me. I’m not a musician of any kind but I do write poetry and I write my own plays and Ron’s art of songwriting really inspires me . It’s on the same level of dementedness . Sparks is just one of those groups that just went and did their own thing, didn’t give a shit about what everyone else said and to be honest with you, that’s what makes it so good. As an artist, you have to stand your ground, not give a toss about what anyone tells you if they try and worm their way into your creative process and try to change certain things. I’m going to be a part of that world too so I’m learning how to be thick skinned when it comes to my work, my dad is the biggest inspiration for me, he is also creative, he makes his own music, so he helps me out with my future. I’ve got everything I need to be successful, I’m so grateful for everything that I have. I have an amazing, caring, loving family, I’ve got a roof over my head, I know my abilities and talents and I’ve got it all figured out. The only thing I need to do now is to focus and try to reach for my goals and my dreams.
At the moment, I’m doing my thing at The Hackney Empire Writers room, most of us have different tastes in music . I have a friend and she likes 70s and 80s music, so that’s absolutely brilliant because so do I . So for when we were supposed to be discussing ideas for our plays, we were just talking about Fleetwood Mac and Abba, it was so funny . Then, I started singing Dancing Queen out loud quite randomly and everyone was wondering what on earth I was doing . Our conversations are so random and weird, it’s just brilliant . We would be in the middle of something and I would randomly talk about how much I love David Tennant, it’s so funny . I already mentioned this in my Hackney Empire post so you haven’t already checked it out, check it out . The whole time, I was talking about the films, music and TV shows that I loved, my obsession with the TV show Staged, my crush on a very young David Tennant in Takin Over The Asylum because I’m just obsessed with that show, my crush on a very young Mathew Baynton, there was so much to talk about, it was just so funny.



















But yeah, we all have different tastes in music. No one knows Sparks though, that’s one thing I’m struggling with at the moment. I have the urge to talk about Sparks but no one even knows who they are . I’m like ” Okay, I’m just gonna go and cry in the corner now ”, haha .
But yeah no, all these months and all these weeks, I still love Sparks. Nothing much has changed . If anything, the more I learn about them, the more respect I have . Their music holds a special place in my heart .
I’m gonna go and see them in June . Me, my sister, my dad and my mum are going to see them live at The Royal Albert Hall, so that’s gonna be fun and exciting . I’m so curious to see what they’re like live on stage, it’s gonna be crazy . Like, I was out in Mayfair with my brother, my mum and my dad and we were just walking around, looking at all the shops and then my sister sent my dad this link and then I saw it and it said ” Sparks live at the Royal Albert Hall ”, and immedietly, I was so excited . I was like ” Yes, I finally got my wish, I finally get to go to one of their gigs . I’m so happy . So that’s gonna be something to look forward to . I’m gonna do a post on what happened, so stay tuned for that .
So there you go, that’s my verdict on my obsession with Sparks. All these different things just explain why I love them so much, they’re one of my favourite bands of all time. Thank you so much for reading my post, I hope you all had a lovely Christmas, now we’re all looking forward to the new year, hopefully this new year would be better. I love you so so much, have a nice day.
