I'm guilty of listening to the same Top 40 hits on repeat. However, these underrated songs all should be treasured for the reactions they elicit. All these songs cover a wide range of genres, though, they should all make you feel like someone shoved liquid happiness into your ear canal.

1. This Song – RAC, Rostam

This spring-vibe song is guaranteed to make you soak up sunshine and a shit ton of pollen. It’s a very happy, slow-paced song. The lyrics describe the feelings you associate with specific songs.

2. Second Guess – Ashworth

Another summer vibe that will make you run 10 kilometers or to the fridge. How can you not be happy and listen to this song?

3. California Dreaming – Arman Cekin, Paul Rey, Snoop Dogg

The heavy piano chords that are staggered throughout the song give a mellow and dancehall ambiance throughout the entire track. A perfect laid-back song to drink Moscato with friends, talking about your hopes and dreams.

4. 33^rd – Cupcakke

This is by an artist, who is primarily known for her promiscuity. Her albums are brutally funny and clever. This song, in particular, is a confidence banger on steroids. It has a great beat and will sure help you at the gym—it’s definitely NSFW though. You should definitely make sure to give the music video a watch.

5. Diplomat’s Son – Vampire Weekend

What a mellow college melody this masterpiece is. It’s a soft banger with hints of Jamaican and Paul Simon vibes. This will set the mood for a relaxing night, for one, at home.

6. The Gambler – fun.

“The Gambler” is an amazing ballad from the band fun. While the band may have broken up, this song will definitely solidify your marriage and make your eardrums happy, no matter the volume.

7. I Promise You – Ezra Koenig

While this song may be from the new movie Peter Rabbit, it’s honestly still a great melody about life and love. Ezra puts his heart and soul into the vocals. James Corden covers this song as well, his is—okay. Do yourself a favor and listen to this one.

8. Human – Jon Bellion

If there is a more passionate artist out there than Jon Bellion, point me in their direction. Jon discusses his rise to fame and his how obligations are out of balance. It’s a relatable banger which some heavy undertones.

9. Lola – MIKA

This artist is the reincarnation of Freddie Mercury. His talent is not limited to this track. In fact, his album, The Origin of Love, is, in my opinion, one of the best pop albums of this century.

10. Banana Smoothie – Naked Brothers Band

There is always one song on a playlist that makes no sense.

11. Shine – Supermans Feinde

For 30 seconds you’ll be confused what kind of song you are listening to. Push through it and let your eardrums be blessed when the saxophone comes into play. Even Bruno Mars would do a jig to this beat.

12. Tonight – Felix Cartal, Maja Ivarsson

This bouncy song is pure happiness. I personally go to the gym, make eye contact with a stranger on a treadmill, match their MPH pace. Then, while making eye contact, increase my speed by 1 MPH and put this song on.

13. Bring Back the Summer (feat. OLY) Boehm Remix – Rain Man, OLY, Boehm

Just like the remix to Light It Up by Major Lazer, this remix is so much better than the original. I usually throw this song when I’m about to have a party or smoke some crack—it’s perfect for any occasion.

14. Stardust – Benny Benassi Mix – MIKA

I couldn’t pick only on track from MIKA’s, Origin of Love album. Who needs drugs when you have songs like this?

15. Come Over (feat. Stylo G) – Clean Bandit, Stylo G

This might be one of the more well-known songs on the playlist. I have listened to this song over 100 times and still don’t know the lyrics, but I know it’ll still make me groove. I think is what Drake would sound like if his songs were happier.

I also made a playlist of all these songs on Spotify here.
