My Year in Music – March 2026
March is easy… I think. I wouldn’t actually know. I spent most of it working or playing Genshin. Very productive, aren’t I? The good thing is that summer time has started in Ireland; the days are getting longer and the weather is getting better kind of (not really). For the first time in a while,…

In Depth Mini Album Review – Big Ocean’s THE GREATEST BATTLE
Honestly, coming into this review, I constantly thought of Big Ocean as very different from me despite the fact that, as K-pop idols go, they are perhaps the most like me. Much like me (Emma), the members of Big Ocean are all hard of hearing in some capacity. Formed under Parastar Entertainment, Big Ocean consists…

My Year In Music – February 2026
Well, it seems February has come to an end. A month where I worked too much and didn’t/couldn’t give myself the breaks I needed. In my defence, I wasn’t exactly given much choice when it came to rest. But now I think I can pause and think long enough to prepare this post for you…

Intro to K-Pop 101
So, I heard that an Irish radio show was discussing K-pop and Stray Kids lately (and they didn’t invite me? Rude!), so I think it’s only right that I offer you all the opportunity to experience some of the best (in my opinion) that the K-pop industry has to offer. Class is now in session,…

What Keeps Me Awake At Night
So, in a sharp 180 degree shift of tone from our last post, let’s get serious(ish). Let’s talk about sleep…. Or, more accurately, my lack thereof. “You’re a horrible person.”“I know. It keeps me awake at night.”Stiles Stilinski, Teen Wolf Don’t worry, I don’t think I’m a horrible person but I’m sure some people do…

June 2023 Monthly Round Up
We are ringing in the end of June exceptionally delayed and that is my fault (Niamh). The end of June was insane with the end of the School Tour Season, finding my feet with a new role in work and Emma being my personal support when energy levels were exceptionally low! June saw us celebrate…

My Year in Music – May 2023
I know I say this every month but, I promise, I am in fact alive just working six days a week and having no social life but I am alive, I swear. I’ve missed a lot of reunions and social events lately and the blog has suffered hugely because of work but I can only…

May 2023 Monthly Round Up
Hello Internet, this is OMG calling! To be honest, I don’t actually know who was meant to write the intro this month but you got me (Emma) so: Hi! When I say adulting has brought our blog to a standstill, I genuinely mean it. Niamh took a well earned holiday to enjoy everything Eurovision for…

April 2023 Monthly Round Up
April, what a month! Surrounded by many hours of work, two reunions for Our Muchness Guide, Niamh breaking a bone and the Chasing Abbey guys dropping a new song a week via their The Vault Series (that’s just scratching the surface); April was week after week of insane mayhem that we both loved! With April…

My Year In Music March & April
Remind me never to ask for a month to be nicer to me because it does NOT work! In case you haven’t noticed there was a month of music missing. Unfortunately, I was very very sick at the start of April for the first time in a long time. I rarely get very sick but…

March 2023 Monthly Round Up
Well well well we’re back again with a Round Up which is later than usual. That is my (Emma’s) fault because for the first time in a long time I got sick and when I say sick I mean it. As well as dealing with that, work had both of us kept busy as well.…
