Music is good for the soul and here are 25 songs that should make your soul very happy. Over the years, I've happened upon these songs and even had the chance to see a few of them preformed live. Each song is individual and different and has it's own sound. So listen to a few, listen to them all, but take the time to savor them and listen to the lyrics.

*disclaimer* If these songs don't change your life, there's a money back guarantee.

13. Hero by Family of the Year

this song may have some of my favorite vocals. they're so light, yet so powerful.

If you like this song, venture into their top 5 songs on Spotify and you'll find even more gems

20. Kangaroo Court by Capital Cities

if you're looking for digital age music mixed with a jazzy trumpet laced with good lyrics, look no further.

21. White Winter Hymnal by Fleet Foxes

while perfect for movie montages, it's also perfect for relaxing.

Nico has quite the way with words and melody.

23. One Grain of Sand by Ron Pope

while we all love "A Drop in the Ocean", Ron Pope also has other fabulous songs.

24. Au Revoir (Adios) by The Front Bottoms

music mixed with foreign language. heck, they even explain what they mean.

& Last, but certainly not least.

*drumroooooooooooll*

25. Kanye by The Chainsmokers

The Chainsmokers have a way with beats and lyrics. Give it a listen, Kayne would want you to (& so would I).

I hope you all enjoyed at least one of the songs on this list and caught a glimpse of what my music love consists of!

Shout out to all the fabulous people who already love the songs on this list, but I hope more people come to love the music not normally featured on the radio. You're missing a lot if you ONLY listen to the mainstream songs the radio stations choose. Also, special thanks to people who keep showing me new music. You people rock and your musical souls are beautiful <3
