Get Lost In The Music With Little Mix's "No More Sad Songs"

Forget about your troubles with a song that's not too sad.

Get Lost In The Music With Little Mix's "No More Sad Songs"
Little Mix - "No More Sad Songs"

Little Mix treated their fans to some exciting news last Wednesday: the release of their next single from their latest album, Glory Days.

“No More Sad Songs” dropped Thursday night, and this reworked version of one of the album’s stronger tracks features guest vocals from rapper Machine Gun Kelly.


The song sounds even more amazing hearing it a second time around, and the remixed parts of the track make the deep pulses and beats of the track even more pleasurable to listen to. Kelly is a welcome addition to the track, and his verse goes well with the composition of the song.

The only downside to Kelly’s appearance is the removal of Jesy Nelson’s bridge of the original song that flows right in Perrie Edward’s wails on the final chorus, but it is understandable as to why this decision was made so as to keep the song from being too long.


The original version of "No More Sad Songs" appeared on the group's latest album, Glory Days.

“No More Sad Song’s” strength is not in its musical composition, but rather, its lyrical content. Driven to the point of madness with thoughts of an ex-lover, the narrator(s) turn to a night on the town in order to forget, getting lost in the loud music and the company they find along the way.

Too often, songs about love fall at opposite extremes of a spectrum: either the singer is so in love with the object of their affection they cannot even put into words how deep their feelings go, or the singer is buried beneath their despair and regret as they reflect on what caused their romance to fall apart.

“No More Sad Songs” seems to find itself right in the middle. Yes, the person singing is sad, we can tell they are troubled by regret, but it’s not how the entire song goes. Instead, we find ourselves getting lost in the music with the ones singing, and all worries fade away, even if it’s just for a moment - just don’t play anything that could make it all come rushing back, Mr. DJ.

It is important to remember that sometimes it is 100% okay to not want to think about something. Obviously, problems have to be faced eventually, but it is perfectly fine to take a minute and get lost in a distraction. And remember, too much gushing over romance and too much wallowing in heartbreak is good for no one.

So let Little Mix help you say “forget it” and let loose for three minutes and forty-five seconds with a song that’s not too sad to get down with.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?
