I don’t know about you, but one of my favorite things is discovering a new song that I can’t get enough of. Hearing music that makes me smile or brings back a good memory can turn my day around. Especially if it’s a song that has been around for a while that I’ve never heard before or am rediscovering for a second time.
I’m one of those people who can replay a song 100 times without getting sick of it. Whether you need a new bop or forgot how much you like The Jackson 5, there’s a song on here for everyone. So, here’s a few songs I’ve been obsessed with lately (and maybe you will like a few too).
“I Found” – Amber Run
Notable Lyrics: “And I found love where it wasn’t supposed to be / Right in front of me, talk some sense to me”
“Color” – Finish Ticket
Notable Lyrics: “Hoping for a change / Running from the noise inside my brain / The stranger on my face”
“No One Else Like You” – Adam Levine
If you like Maroon 5 or think Adam Levine is beautiful, you will LOVE this.
“That Old Black Hole” – Dr. Dog
I have absolutely no idea what this song is about, but I LIKE IT.
“September Song” – JP Cooper
Notable Lyrics: “You were my September song, summer lasted too long / Time moves so slowly, when youre only fifteen”
“The Gold” – Manchester Orchestra
Notable Lyrics: “Couldn’t really love you anymore / You’ve become my ceiling”
“Heart It Races” – Dr. Dog
If you close your eyes, you can pretend you’re at the beach while listening to this song.
“Do I Wanna Know?” – Arctic Monkeys
Notable Lyrics: “Crawling back to you / Ever thought of calling when you’ve had a few? / Cause I always do”
“Easy Love” – Sigala
Possibly the coolest remix of “ABC” by Jackson 5 you’ll ever hear.
“Forget Myself” – Third Eye Blind
The perfect motivational song to add to your gym playlist.
“Hangin’ Around” – Counting Crows
Notable Lyrics: “These days get so long and I got nothing to do”
“Someone That Loves You” – HONNE & Izzy Bizu
Soon, you will know all the words to this song because you’ll keep it on repeat.
“I Want You Back” – The Jackson 5
Will cause you to dance on you way to class instead of walk.
“Pictures of You” – The Last Goodnight
Warning: This song will give you SERIOUS middle school feels.
“At Last” – Etta James
The song voted “Most Likely to Be Heard at a Wedding”.
“Comeback Kid” – Brett Dennen
Notable Lyrics: “And there goes my hero / He’s an underdog, he’s coming out on top”

If you don’t like this song, we can’t be friends.
And Vance Joys entire new album, Nation of Two, which debuted at No. 1 this past week in Australia.
Or, if you don’t have time to listen to the whole album, just listen to “One of These Days” and “Saturday Sun”.
