Summer is coming to an end and we're DREADING it. The music, however, is here to stay *thank god*. With that being said, here are 14 songs that SCREAM "Summer '17"!
1. "Despacito" - Luis Fonsi Ft. Justin Bieber & Daddy Yankee
Yes, of course, this is song numero uno. Bieber was chilling in a club one night and heard the original song which he loved. So much, in fact, that he wanted to record over it. Now it's a smash hit and suddenly everyone knows how to speak Spanish.
2."1-800-273-8255" - Logic ft. Alessia Cara & Khalid
Logic, with help, shows listeners that someone is always there to help. The song title is the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline, and yet they never mention it. Instead, they show their inner struggles along with hope so that others can feel that, relate to the feeling, and use this help to their advantage. It's a very moving and inspirational song!
3. "Sign of the Times" - Harry Styles
Harry's first single as a solo artist is one for the books, for sure! This track is very moving and emotional, but still one that the fans love!
4. "Slow Hands" - Niall Horan
Still on the "post One Direction" train, we have good ol' Niall. This song seems like it's outside of his comfort zone, but in it at the same time.
5. "Now or Never" - Halsey
Halsey shows passion in love in a creepy, sort of adventurous twist. She still manages to keep up that charm and uniqueness that her fans love!
6. "Unforgettable" - French Montana ft Swae Lee
This is another one of those "I just want to dance" tracks. No one said that it's a bad thing, everyone likes dancing!
7. "Malibu" - Miley Cyrus
This is Miley's first hit since she decided to stray away from partying and smoking. We've missed you, Miley. Keep it up, girl!
8. "Praying" - Kesha
Keeping up with come back tracks, here we are. We've got Kesha (no more $) back in the game after her legal battle with Dr. Luke. This is probably the most moving song that she has released, and with everything that's been happening with her, it's understandable. She unleashes all of those emotions into this song and it's absolutely beautiful.
9. "There's Nothing Holding Me Back" - Shawn Mendes
We've loved Shawn from the start. This track gives us more reason to fangirl!
10. "Versace on the Floor" - Bruno Mars
Bruno features the one and only Zendaya to star in his video. Not like the song wasn't great enough as is, right? Zendaya sure can jam out to Bruno which, in a way, is somewhat refreshing.
11. "Crying in the Club" - Camila Cabello
Camila shows her listeners that breakups aren't the end of the world. She is successful in showing what the struggle is like in the video. She incorporates a segment of her song "I Have Questions" as an intro to the video to show the pain you first feel. This is followed by "Crying in the Club" to show movement away from the heartbreak. It's quite moving!
12. "New Rules" - Dua Lipa
Ladies, this one is for you! Dua Lipa is here to teach us how to get over an ex with only 3 rules to follow. If you're going through a tough breakup, you need this song. If not, you can still jam out!! Either way, this one will be stuck in your head for a while.
13. "Killing Spree" - Logic ft Ansel Elgort
Ansel makes this track with his vocals. His voice is shocking and suprising, but also very calming!
14. "Feels" - Calvin Harris ft. Pharrell Williams, Katy Perry and Big Sean
Quite the unexpected grouping, but it works so well! This song provides the perfect bass line for a summer jam. Not to mention that when you get such an epic collaboration (along with the return of our favorite "Happy" guy, sadly no giant hat) the song is destined to be a hit!
