I live off of Spotify. Whether I am listening to old songs and reminiscing on my childhood, or listening to the top hits, I am constantly using Spotify for music. One of my favorite uses of Spotify is creating different playlists for my variety of moods. One of my most diverse playlists is my 'Exploratory Bops' playlist. It consists of new (or old) songs from a plethora of artists.
Here are my top seven songs from my playlist! They definitely earned a spot on one of my other playlists.
1. What You Do To Me - John Legend
One of my most recent musical obsessions is John Legend. He always hooks me with his lyrics and the musicality in all of his songs is so incredibly beautiful.
2. Sit Still, Look Pretty - Daya (feat. R!OT)
I thought this was the most annoying song until one of my friends played this remix the other night. For some reason, I am oddly obsessed with this remix! It is such a fun party and workout song and the musicality in the remix is super dynamic.
3. How Far I'll Go; From 'Moana' - Alessia Cara
This song is my new jam with my best friend. Alessia has such a unique voice and the song just makes me feel really happy. Plus, it is from an adorable movie, so what's not to love?
4. Make Me (Cry) - Noah Cyrus, Labrinth
I did not know how I felt about this song when I first listened to it, but after a few listens, I fell in love with it. Noah has such a special voice and I think the song is great for being her first single. I have a feeling she will go far as a musician and I am thrilled to watch her journey.
5. Fake Love - Drake
If I'm being honest, I love listening to Drake because I love attempting to rap his songs. One of my best friends is amazing at rapping and Drake is one of her favorite artists. Her love for him has rubbed off on me, so I try to incorporate some of his songs into my playlists. Plus, his songs are great for parties!
6. All We Have Is Love - Sabrina Carpenter
Every time a new album comes out, I typically listen through and find a few of my favorite songs. I honestly do not understand how I skipped over this when listening to Sabrina's album, 'EVOLution.' I had the opportunity to see Sabrina in concert in early December and this was by far one of my favorite song that she performed. I absolutely love seeing artists perform songs live; it connects people to songs in such a unique and special way.
7. Rise Up - Andra Day
This song is on a commercial for a new TV show (I forgot the name of it), but as soon as I heard it, I was intrigued. I ended up googling some of the lyrics that I heard and easily found the song on Spotify. Andra's voice is so powerful and I love the message the song portrays.
