Artist & Song
Kurt Hugo Schneider, Sam Tsui “Safe & Sound”
Yet another Taylor Swift cover that’s better than the original (but how hard is that, really?). Acoustic, as is what we all know if these two cover artists. If you’re not familiar with either Kurt or Sam, I highly recommend checking them out.
The Doors “ Riders on the Storm”
Anything that starts with a thunderstorm is going to be on top of many playlists. A perfect throwback to add to your library.
Sugarland “Little Miss”
A depressed, “poor me” kind of sound that evolves into the mantra, “I’m ok”. Very country, but can also fit any taste. Some great messages for anyone struggling with their own mind.
Louis Tomlinson “Kill My Mind”
Is it just me, or does this scream “1967”? I half expected the video to be all hippie and flower power. Don’t get me wrong, it’s a great song. It’s just a little throwback-y.
RUNAGROUND “Anti-Gravity”
If you’ve never heard this band, you’re seriously missing out. This track hits hard with beat and sound. You’ll be dancing and singing along in no time, because let’s face it, repeat is the only option.
Plested “First Time”
Maybe acoustic wasn’t the way to go, here. It’s got a great sound, but would only be amplified (no pun intended) by some more electric background. Percussion would also help. Acoustic makes it easier to hear the singer’s voice, but this one has that empty feeling.
Niall Horan, Maren Morris “Seeing Blind”
Cliché duet? Yes. Well done? Absolutely. Take Niall, add country singer Maren, and you get what is quite possibly the best track on Horan’s debut solo album. The harmonies fit just as well as these two voices. (Side note: This whole album is absolutely incredible)
All Time Low “Weightless” (E)
There are a lot of people out there who are thinking exactly what this song is saying. “I’m over getting old”, “Maybe it’s not my weekend, but it’s gonna be my year”... The list goes on. A great high-energy song that will have you moving and motivated.
firekid “Lay By Me”
I feel like this song needs a travel video montage. A super catchy song that has a great sound. I highly suggest you check out more by firekid.
Nick Santino “Gone Like Yesterday”
After the unfortunate and untimely demise of the fan-favorite A Rocket To The Moon, Nick released this gem of an album in 2014. Picking just one song from the 11 incredible tracks was impossible, so I just closed my eyes and tapped one. Check it out. You’re welcome.
