Frank Ocean's 5 Best Singles

1. "Moon River"

This song is gorgeous - so soothing and so light. Frank's vocals are just very beautifully composed and meshed with the minimal production so well. The harmonies, the lyrics, and the overall vibe are so amazing. The complexity of the lyrics are so flawless and pair immaculately with the instrumentals.

2. "Novacane"

A big switch from "Moon River," but this upbeat song is one of my favorite Frank songs of all time. The lyrical intelligence plus the amount of really smoothly placed connections and innuendos is insane. The upbeat song is an easy and fun listener, but, like most Frank songs. When you really listen and dissect the lyrics it's a whole different story. It's enjoyable to listen and catch something within the lyrics that you haven't before.

3. "Dear April"

This is a very similar vibe to "Moon River." Its very instrumental heavy production emphasizes the vocals and makes it flow so well. Listening to this song hurts the heart but also makes you feel like you're floating— such a delicate song with such a powerful feeling. I can't get over how well this song was constructed.

4. "In My Room"

The flow of this song is different from other Frank songs. It's more futuristic melodic production takes you to a different dimension. Lyrically its fun yet still has deeper lyrical meaning. I think that is why Ocean's music is so appealing. You can listen to it just to listen to it, but then you can also listen to understand and see more of the picture.

5. "Biking" ft. Tyler The Creator and Jay-z

For not being a huge Jay-z fan, I really enjoy this song. When Frank collabs with an artist, it doesn't matter who it is - I will listen to it and probably love it. Frank and Tyler have such an amazing artist dynamic and that shines through in this song. They bounce off of each other so well and it makes this song 10x better.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

Thank you for all that you do for me
Thank you for working through disagreements with me
Thank you for always supporting me
I appreciate you more than words can express
You have helped me grow and become a better person
I can't wait to see where life takes us next
I promise to cherish every moment with you
Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
