More music you should know! I might as well serve some
purpose in this world, so I’ve decided that it’s to keep you posted on the
music I love. I’m stealing a lot of this from that soundtrack I posted about
earlier. There’s some other stuff, too, though.
Melanie Martinez-
Soap
She’s a little different, but for a lot of non-judgmental
people out there, there’s nothing wrong with that. For those of you who do have
a problem with people who might think a little differently, I guess you can
suck it.
Halsey- Gasoline
There is a bad word or two in this one. My nephew sent me
the link to this song yesterday and I LOVE it. I like most of Halsey’s stuff,
but this is one of my new favorites. Listen to this line. “I think there’s a
flaw in my code.” Who doesn’t feel like that at some point or another? Listen
to this one loud in the car while you’re alone.
Basenji- Can’t Get
Enough
I feel like I shouldn’t like this for some reason, but
whatever. I do. I don’t know how to explain this song. It’s just cool and light
and…not moist. But I wanted to say moist for some reason. There aren’t a lot of
lyrics to this song, but you can hum along to it.
JoJo- No Apologies
YES! The same JoJo that did that “Leave” song way back when
is all grown up. And she’s better this time around. Seriously.
Here’s a live link-
She sounds so fantastically great
Here’s the studio
version
JoJo- F.A.B.
This one has bad words in it, too. This song title is short
for Fake A** B**ch. Who doesn’t know one of those, right? This is what you
might send in an email to someone who just sucks at life. “When they eatin’ off
your plate but don’t do dishes.” How brilliant is that line?
Mike Perry- The
Ocean
On the total opposite end of the spectrum is this song. It’s
a dance-ish song with sweet lyrics. All about touching someone under their skin
and taking someone to a place they’ve never been. Yea love, right?
Andy Grammer-
Fresh Eyes
And another sweet one that maybe I don’t get. I thought it
was about seeing the person you’ve loved for a while in a whole new light. But
then the music video is making over homeless people. It’s cool that Andy did
that for the video, but it makes me question whether or not I understand what
he’s singing about. Hmmm.
Kiiara- Feels
This one has the bad language in it, too. I LOVE Kiiara.
This one is different than “Gold” and hooking up with your brother in the
basement since you weren’t around. This one is the sweeter side of her.
Seriously. If you haven’t done it already, go to her Vevo channel and listen to
her songs. So great! OK now that I mention the basement, she does mention it
again in this song. But it’s not about anything even semi-incestuous.
Rihanna- Close to
You
We all know how amazing Rihanna is, but sometimes her talent
gets a little lost in her message. This song is Rihanna stripped down with just
a piano and a couple of other sounds. The vulnerable side of Rihanna is one we
can all appreciate, right?
Peter Gabriel- In
your Eyes
This is a throwback song. It’s the song that I have called
the best song ever for years now. I still believe it. This song fits any mood
you could be in. Except maybe unless you get in a mood to go dance with glow
sticks and take your shirt off. Then this one doesn’t fit. Please. Just listen
to it all the way through.
