I listen to a lot of music- like A LOT. Honestly, I can't do basic everyday activities without listening to music. From getting ready in the morning to falling asleep at night, Spotify is always playing. (Maybe this is the reason my phone is always on 1%, rip)

Anyways, here are some songs I would give anything to listen for the first time again:

1. August by Flipturn

I didn't give this song a chance at first, mostly because I thought it was going to be another slow indie-rock song. I'm so glad I didn't skip it. This song brought back feelings I didn't even know I had. Lowkey kinda weird, however, I believe this song captures what all of us go through in life. Since I can't come across this song again for the first time, I hope you can and give it a listen.

2. Darling by Christain Leave

This song reminds me of sunflower fields, 50s diners, and sunny days laying out by the pool. If you ever listen to it I hope it brings you the same feeling. Darling sparks so much happiness and Chrisitan Leave's adoration for the person he's singing to paints a beautiful picture. The amount of serotonin I experienced when I listened to this song first is astonishing.

3. Younger by Ruel

Ruel's music is so emotionally dense. Younger particularly just hits you where it hurts. The pain in his voice, especially at the 2:30 mark, effected me in a whole different way. I have never been so taken aback at how much he poured his heart into this song. It's definitely sad boi hours type of music however if you ever have the chance just listen to it.

4.To Noise Making (Sing) by Hozier

Not to be THAT girl but I had the opportunity to listen to Hozier's Wasteland Baby album before it was realized on Spotify. I was sent a CD and because it was 2019 and I don't own a CD player, I played it in my car. I wanna say I sat in my Subaru for like an hour just listening to Sing by Hozier. His range as an artist is amazing and this song is beautiful. I wholeheartedly believe this song is the epitome of what being in love truly feels like.

5. Window by Still Woozy

Wanna have a chill song that you can also move to? Listen to this. The instrumentals and beat are so unique and Woozy's voice is so alluring. My only wish is for the song to be longer, but other than that its fantastic. I first listened to Window in a cozy orange room during golden hour. Let me tell you the vibes were immaculate. I wish I could go back and experience it again.

6. Peach by Kevin Abstract

Confession: I don't like rap, r&b, hip hop, soul music, etc. So when this song came up on my Spotify I was shocked that I loved it so much. I had never listened to Kevin Abstract until his song Peach. In my opinion, I feel like this song is the script that goes through men's minds when they wanna simp but also be an 'idc' guy. I wish I could listen to it again and regain the epiphany I had. (It's also a beautifully made song and Kevin Abstract is an amazing artist)

7. Autodomesiticated Animal by Birdtalker

This song just understands me. I've never had a song completely relate to who I am as a person more than this. It captures my relationship with my mother and how I see the world- something I've never heard before in a song. The first time I listened to it, I cried. I wouldn't necessarily want to be in the same headspace as I was when I first came across this song, however, I think its a wonderfully sad song that portrays my life.

8. Why'd You Only Call Me When You're High? by Arctic Monkeys

An old song I know. I first listened to this on my purple iPod Nano back in 2013. Emo Grace was thriving lemme tell ya. Arctic Monkey's classic rock vibe makes this a perfect late-night driving song through the city. It brings a sense of nostalgia to my teenage years and to listen to it again for the first time would be everything.

9. Perfect Places by Lorde

Some people listen to Frank Ocean when they're sad. I listen to Lorde. Her album Melodrama is a masterpiece and Perfect Places is my favorite song out of it. This song makes me want to shave my head, and steal a car. It's a perfect sad song for someone who can't listen to depressing slow music.

10. Love and War in Your Twenties by Jordy Searcy

This song is an 'our song' moment. I share this with someone very close to me and associate it with one of the most meaningful memories I made in college. Love and War in Your Twenties perfectly captures the disarray and confusion we as a generation go through in our young adulthood. I felt complete when I heard this for the first time, and it reminded me I'm just as lost as everyone else.
