The Indie Valentine's Day Playlist

Love is in the air

101
The Indie Valentine's Day Playlist
Retriever Staff

If you’re anything like me, you create multiple playlists for different events or holidays. It sets the mood for whatever occasion is happening. Whether you’ve got a partner or are flying solo this valentine’s day, feel the love with music!

1. Sucre: “Persuasion”

This is one of the sweetest love songs. Sucré’s Stacy Dupree-King has a voice that makes it sound like an affectionate lullaby.

2. Wild Child: “Darling Divine”

A delicate, folkish love song of a sort of unrequited love.

3. Hozier: “Like Real People Do”

This song is definitely made for a Valentine’s playlist. Both the lyrics and style give off the essence of love.

4. Vampire Weekend: “Everlasting Arms”

Although ‘Everlasting Arms’ is presumably a reference to protection from God, who says it can’t be taken as a sort of love song?

5. Børns: “Electric Love”

An upbeat jam about love’s powerful electricity.

6. Saint Motel: “Cold Cold Man”

This song was made for dancing. Saint Motel gives love in this song by repeating “you’re the only one worth seeing, the only place worth being, the only bed worth sleeping’s the one right next to you.”

7. In the Valley Below: “Lover”

A statement of truth in love; In the Valley Below sings “I won’t be the kind of lover who takes your hand and holds another, I won’t be the kind of lover who takes your hand and holds you under.”

8. Brandon Flowers: “Still Want You”

No matter what occurs in this world, good or bad, Brandon Flowers will still want his love.

9. Father John Misty: “True Affection”

Father John Misty, you have our hearts. He wants a true conversation without “all these strange devices.”

10. Coast Modern: “Guru”

Coast Modern loves their “guru” and the distance will never come between their love.

11. Fitz & the Tantrums: “Out of My League”

A lighthearted ode to their lover who is “more than just a dream.”

12. Judah & the Lion: “Take It All Back”

A folk pop song, Judah & the Lion would “take it all back just to have [their love].”

13. Passion Pit: “Where the Sky Hangs”

Passion Pit is caught up in the heartstrings of his love; he has feelings of love run deep.

14. The Avett Brothers: “I and Love and You”

This is a beautiful song, and it’s not the typical love song; the narrator has trouble in saying those three words.

15. Lord Huron: “Fool for Love”

A soft song, Lord Huron proves that they would do anything for their love.

16. The Paper Kites: “Bloom”

A charming, calming song about The Paper Kites’ love; their love is their world, and they just want to be close to their love.

17. The Black Keys: “Howlin’ For You”

The Black Keys aren’t hiding anything; they are professing their attraction and love for someone.

18. Haim: “Honey & I”

Haim doesn’t need to think about any past lovers; they are perfectly happy with their honey.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
