“In Bloom” by Neck Deep

This has been a song I look forward to listening to ever since i first heard it. This song sounds a bit more upbeat but the lyrics are what make it mostly relatable and sad. Throughout the song, they explain how the sad thoughts of a breakup can consume someone more than anyone really thinks. These are the inner thoughts expressed through someone’s mind after wanting people to hear them out and listen to their story. This is just such a great song and i recommend listening to this anytime and anywhere.

 

 

“I Think I’m In Love?” by Phangs

This is a smaller artist who definitely deserves more recognition. This is a bit upbeat but also calm at the same time. It is easy to imagine a bunch of teenagers listening to while driving at night in the summer. The song explains literally being in love with someone but not knowing what to do. The song is a bit repetitive but it’s in a good way.

 

 

“Bodak Yellow” Cover by Zhavia

I chose the cover because this girl is so talented it’s ridiculous. Zhavia is a contestant on the show “The Four” and while she’s on it, she gets to do covers of songs and so far this has been my absolute favorite. She hits the lowest and highest of notes just in one song and I personally think that’s crazy and this girl is just so good. I have been watching her sing for the longest time she is just so amazing!

 

 

“I Fall Apart” by Post Malone

This song was actually explained by the artist himself. He said that this song was about a bad breakup he went through in high school and he dove into his emotional side for it. This is a sadder and slower song. It became really popular considering a lot of people like Post Malone, and also because this song is relatable to his audience.

 

 

“Mad” by Ne-Yo

This is an older song, it explains the difficulties of a relationship. This is all from a male’s perspective and he talks about fighting badly, but wanting to make up because the fight was started for nothing since nobody knows why the other is mad. This is a song based on relationships and I personally think it’s an amazing song.
