Pop and Indie Hits
My journey through 2020 began with the immensely popular hits by NCT 127, Ellie Goulding, and Monsta X. Songs like White Night, Slow Grenade, and Who Do You Love, became my daily soundtrack. However, as my music taste evolved, I explored more mellow and reflective tracks. The song temple of the king by John K...
I love you more by John K... and ROSIE had a peaceful, pure, and soothing melody that captivated my attention. If you’re seeking a reminder of love and peace, you should definitely check this out.
Adding to my playlist were popular tracks from Pop and Alternative Indie Folk genres, such as ‘Diane’ by Olivia Rodrigo, hitting me right in the emotions. Other notable mentions include ‘Love Song’ by Why Don’t We and ‘Thats My Song’ by Annemarie featuring Niall Horan. Later in 2020, I was introduced to the haunting beauty of ‘Dear Prudence’ and ‘You’ve Got to Hide Your Love Awayboth by The Beatles, and ‘Thank Youby Led Zeppelin. These songs provided a mix of melodies and meaningful lyrics that resonated deeply with me.
Taylor Swift Specialties
My collection was not just pop and indie, but also deeply rooted in songs by my favorite artist, Taylor Swift. As a hardcore Swiftie, I keep Evermore and Folklore on an endless loop. Tracks like Champagne Problems, Coney Island, and Tolerate It capture a haunting beauty, with the lyrics and music blending perfectly to evoke a sense of melancholy and introspection. I particularly love songs like Gold Rush, Willow, My Tears Ricochet, Cardigan, Exile, and Tis the Damn Season.
DJ Influence and Nightcore
When it comes to electronic and DJ mixes, the list of favorites includes Cry by Gryffin, Love Again by AVAION, and the electrifying Spektrum by Camelphat. For a mashup experience, I Could Be the One by Avicii and Nick Romero is a must-hear. Mixing genres, the DJs from Mars Mashup compilation featuring Joel Corry, MNEK, and Zayn’s Dusk Till Dawnis a treat for music lovers. I also can’t forget the high-energy tracks like Whatcha Say by Nightcore and Business by Tisto.
Billie Eilish and Ariana Grande
For a touch of Alternative pop, I often listen to Wish You Were Gay by Billie Eilish and Thank You Next by Ariana Grande. These songs add an edge to my music collection, providing a shift in tone from the more mellow and reflective tracks.
Revisiting the dear songs of the past and discovering new favorites, my music journey in 2020 was a blend of old and new, pop and indie, with a dash of electronic beats.
