Favorite Music of July 2017

7/19/2017

(I know it's a bit early in the month for this post, but I just couldn't wait to post about this album). This past month I've been really listening to the same music as June, except for Oh Wonder's new album Ultralife. I actually saw them in concert when they opened for Halsey last year, and they were really good live. Their sophomore album is full of songs perfect for lazy Sunday mornings, summer car rides, and chilling at the beach. I really love this album because it's not like anything I've heard before. Their sound is totally all theirs. A few of my favorite songs would have to be Ultralife, Lifetimes, Heavy, Heart Strings, and Overgrown (that was literally so difficult to pick because they're all so good I don't know why I did that to myself). Here's the track list from the album, hope you enjoyed:

Solo
Ultralife
Lifetimes
High On Humans
All About You
Heavy
Bigger Than Love
Heart Strings
Slip Away
Overgrown
My Friends
Waste

Favorite Songs of May 2017

6/4/2017

It's been a while... but I'm back and more motivated than ever to create super fun content that I think is interesting. I really loved my May playlist on Spotify this year, so I thought it was worth sharing. As always, hope you enjoy :)

Can we just stop for a second and appreciate this album? Because it's literally what motivated me to actually do school work all of May. The upbeat tempos in Pool, Rose-Colored Boy, and Hard Times are so catchy and fun to sing along to with friends. But while 26 and Fake Happy take a slower turn, they don't bore me. Honestly, every song is a jam, and I would highly recommend this album to anyone who likes Carly Rae Jepsen, The 1975, or DNCE.

Hard Times
Rose-Colored Boy
Told You So
Forgiveness
Fake Happy
26
Pool
Grudges
Caught In The Middle
Idle Worship
No Friend
Tell Me How

I'm so grateful Niall released this song, because the sound definitely differed from One D, but no so drastically I didn't recognize it or hate it. Super catchy, and I'm always happy when it comes on in shuffle.

I have no words. This album is something I didn't know I needed in my life. But Harry Style's voice never gets irritating. And every song has it's own vibe. Yes, they all have a similar structure with not many lyrics and the same words repeated over and over (ie Woman, Meet Me In The Hallway, Sweet Creature) but I can't help but love it. I'm really enjoying this new sound, and I also like how he showcased his range in the album. My favorite song would have to be Carolina. 10/10 would recommend.

Meet Me in the Hallway
Sign of the Times
Carolina
Two Ghosts
Sweet Creature
Only Angel
Kiwi
Ever Since New York
Woman
From the Dining Table

This is another song in my playlist, and I actually hated it at first. I thought it was the type of song I'd heard before, like it was nothing new. But then I had it stuck in my head for two days, and decided I liked it. I actually discovered it from Taylor Swift's Instagram post about it, and it's grown on me.

This is another song that grew on me, and I'm glad it did. I wish Vanessa Hudgens would make more music, because her voice doesn't get annoying to listen to. Overall, it's a nice duet I've been jamming to this month.

This song is Symphony by Clean Bandit feat. Zara Larsson. I like it because the lyrics are easy to memorize, and I enjoy singing along on my morning car rides to school. Quite honestly, it wakes me up in the morning.

This song is Something Just Like This by the Chainsmokers feat. Coldplay. Now I know this song is really popular right now and on the radio, but I thought it was catchy enough to put on my personal playlist. I've always loved Coldplay, and this is a different collaboration for them. I dig it though.

I hope you enjoyed! Be back soon with another post

Favorite Songs of October 2016

10/24/2016

October was a really stressful month for me, and school is super challenging this year so far. Because I'm stressed all the time, I needed a relaxing, fall playlist this month to calm me down a bit. Some songs are quintessentially autumn to me, and I had to include them. But others were soothing when I wanted to chill, and there were even a few energetic songs in there for when I wanted to just let loose. I'm excited for Halloween this year, and I still need to pick out a Halloween costume whoops. I hope you are enjoying your fall, and enjoy this playlist! :)
