As I’ve been away, this week’s post is going to be short and sweet. Music is something that’s really close to my heart – there truly is a song for every mood or occasion. You may already know that today is World Music Day, and it made me start thinking about all the albums I own and how much I love them. I think it’s great to share our musical opinions and love being introduced to new bands and artists, which is why I want to share with you my top 25 albums. This took me ages to decide on, as I have soooo many that I absolutely adore. I think this list will definitely show that I enjoy very differing types of music, so there will be something for everyone. If you give any of these albums a listen I’d love to hear what you think. (I have quite a lot more than this, so even the ones at the lower end of this list are amongst my favourites!)

Amy Winehouse – Back to Black
Deciding on my number one favourite album was so hard, and I kept going back and forth between a few, but this is the one album I could just never get tired of. In my opinion, there’s a reason this was Amy Winehouse’s bestselling album; it’s absolute genius from start to finish. The raw emotion and vulnerability portrayed in Back to Black is almost enough to bring me to tears each time I listen to it. It’s a perfect combination of catchy, clever and emotional and if you haven’t listened to it, or only know a few of the songs, I would hugely recommend giving it a full listen.
