Why I Cried At The Halsey Concert

Because she's perfect, that's why.

Why I Cried At The Halsey Concert
Drew Hill

Here I am once again, writing about music. If you hate it, I'm not sorry. It's the only thing I care about that is not edible and that I cannot wear.

Nevertheless, I finally went to another concert and let me just say I WAS LIVING!!! That is that eighth concert I've been to and this was definitely one of the best ones!

First of all, I saw Halsey who is a queen, a sweetheart and an inspiration to me. I've loved her for a few years now and when she did her Badlands tour she didn't come to a place that was close and convenient for me, so I didn't get to see her.

Halsey is a sweetheart because she gives so much to her fans and cares so much about them.

She also puts her heart and soul into her music and it really means a lot to her and it means a lot to us and I really think that that is so beautiful and important.

Halsey often writes songs about difficult subjects but the way that she is so open and honest about her struggles and her past is so pure and sweet to me.

Halsey is an inspiration to me especially because she's young and confident and she does what she wants.

Most importantly, Halsey is bisexual and having a positive bi role model is really important not just for me but for younger people who don't really see themselves or their sexuality represented in a positive way.

The aesthetic is everything to me.

Why else would it be one of my favorite words?

Halsey's tour is definitely one of the most aesthetically pleasing shows I have ever witnessed.

She had confetti, pyrotechnics and amazing lighting. There was water, wardrobe changes, video visuals and colorful visuals. She truly puts on a show for the ears as well as the eyes.

As far as setlists go, it could've been better. I'm being brutally honest when I say that Badlands was not her best work so there were a few songs that she sang from that album where I was like "eh."

I mean obviously, I was still screaming and dying but less so... But my favorite song on the setlist was "Is There Somewhere" because it's so heartfelt and that song happens to be about another one of my favorite people.

I've cried to it so many times and just hearing it live made me feel so much that I started sobbing. Which doesn't sound like it would be my favorite but it is because it's one of her older songs and the fact that she still performs it makes my heart happy.

My favorite moments were both of the confetti drops she did because they were so beautiful yet so unexpected. She even has butterfly-shaped confetti that I still have pieces of in my purse.

Halsey gets up close with her fans and lets them hug her and touch her and it feels so intimate like friends hanging out and not people in an arena to see a star.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
