If anyone knows me, they know that I love music. I live to perfect my playlists on Spotify, and I gladly and proudly pay $10 a month for it. It is a necessity. I actually performed my own research to see if I could live without it for a month... I couldn't. My obsession with music is so serious that I refuse to listen to the regular radio. When my dad and I bought my car a couple years ago, my only stipulation was that the car had to have some way for me to play my music. I would have driven a cardboard box as long as it had an aux cord. Needless to say that we had to replace the stereo. Again, Dad, you have had something to put up with over the years. I probably destroyed my old desktop computers back in the day when LimeWire was still a thing. Couldn't live without that either; iPod was always fresh and updated.
Anyway, I've decided to share with you some of my favorites. Some, old that never get old, and some, new; some, you may have heard of, and some, you might not have.
1. Knives - Matoma
When I lived back in Puerto Rico last winter I probably listened to this song at least 3 times a day and I still do. Hasn't gotten old yet. Which is why it makes the number one spot.
