Top Five Reasons I Want a Keytar

For almost 4 years I have wanted a keytar. If you don't know what a keytar is, click here... if you had to click there, I am judging you. Also, if you don't think keytars are awesome, I hate you!

Reason 1: They sound awesome. It's like having a keyboard and synthesizer all in one, instead of having a billion wires everywhere.

Reason 2: Keytars are light and portable. Have you tried lugging around a keyboard? And I don't mean one of those light crappy ones. The heavy, decent sounding ones (I'm elitist when it comes to keyboards). When I was in a band I had to carry one around... not fun!

Reason 3: Lights! Yes, I said Lights because that is her name. I'm pretty sure she changed it legally = kinda awesome if you ask me. Lights is a Canadian musician who is kinda amazing. She's adorable, has a great voice, and plays the keytar on top of it all. If you watch any of her vlogs on youtube, you will also see that she has an amazing personality / sense of humor. As Charlie Sheen would say: "Epic winning." Lights is one of my favorite musicians ^_^

Reason 4: I said they are cool, therefore, they are. Lets face it, if you are reading my blog you are expecting to read my opinion... so one could argue that my opinion is important. Don't worry guys, I'm not narcissistic! I really do care about your opinions too! Feel free to comment ^_^

Reason 5: Very few people actually own a keytar in comparison to a guitar. Everyone and their uncle owns a guitar! I find it annoy to follow trends, so one day I will own a keytar. Due to the lack of funds in my keytar savings I am not able to afford one just yet (sadly university has taken the bulk of both my income and savings).

To summarize, keytars are amazing! I want one, and so should you! I will leave you with Lights song Saviour...
