I'm a fan (and you should be too) because... Boys Like Girls are nothing short of amazing.
Ever since I found out about one my favourite bands through browsing on myspace, I've watched this band grow since their CD first came out in the summer of '06. From playing shows with not necessarily that many people to seeing pictures of huge crowds on Warped Tour. From no one knowing who they were to having their own headlining tour with sold out shows. It's unreal to think about how far they've come. I remember one of the conversations I had with a friend on AIM. I said I knew they were going to make it big one day, & she said one day we'd look back on that very day & wish things were the same as they were back then. I'm not going to lie, part of me wishes everything would've stayed the same with Boys Like Girls. On the other hand, a bigger part of me is more than ecstatic for these boys. And when it comes down to that, I wouldn't change a thing. They've worked so hard & they deserve every bit of success they're gaining. I'm not going to make this a huge speech, because it's the same with every other band & I'm sure you've all heard it. We all know Boys Like Girls are more than amazing. Now it's time for the rest of the world to figure that out. These 4 boys have affected my life in so many ways without even meaning to. They've given me so much more than just some of my favourite songs on my iPod. Don't get me wrong, their music is incredible & I'm fully aware that's the reason why I fell in love with them in the first place. Their songs have been constantly on repeat on my iPod, & I'll never get tired of them. It has given me chills around my body, tears in my eyes, and brought back countless memories. These songs are the soundtrack of my life, but this band has given me so much more in addition to that. This band means more to me than most people will ever understand. They're the reasons for my late night aim conversations, countless inside jokes, & bonds of friendship between some of the most important people in my life. These are the people who share the same undying love for this band. These are the people who know what it's like. These are the people who actually know what I mean when I say I'd do anything for these boys, because they feel the exact same way. It's surreal to think I've never met most of these people, but I can still call them my friends and mean it.
I love this band with my whole heart, and nothing's ever going to change that. <3
