6 Songs That Are Necessary For Your Summer Playlist

In This Article:

Everyone needs a good playlist as they take slow summer rides or watch the sunset. I have a compiled a short list of songs that have made my summer more enjoyable and relaxing (despite the forty hour work week).

1. Slip Away - Perfume Genius

If you saw the film Booksmart, then you probably recognize this melody. This song starts off slow, but then quickly dives into a punk rock ballad that will definitely get stuck in your head.

2. Hanging By A Moment - Lifehouse

I rediscovered this song after listening to a Spotify rewind playlist. If this is your first time hearing this it, I feel so sorry that your early 2000s lacked Lifehouse. I think every summer playlist needs a little nostalgia mixed into it.

3. June - Briston Maroney

"June" takes a departure from the summer rock ballads previously mentioned. While it moves at a slower tempo, it's the lyrics that have me longing for the summer months.

4. Happiest Man On Earth(Radio Edit) - Broken Back

I would call myself a fan of Broken Back, and this was one of the first songs that I got me hooked. The entire song is upbeat and it is just destined to be blasted out of car windows.

5. WESTWORLD - EVAN GIIA

You know how some songs are just meant to be on a repeat until you get sick of it? "WESTWORLD" is one of those songs. I will say no more.

6. She's So High - Tal Bachman

If you're yearning for some summer nostalgia, then this 90s ballad is definitely meant for your playlist. While you may not recognize the song, chances are you have heard the lovesick lyrics and the guitar rift.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
