It’s definitely been a long time since I’ve written a post for this blog, but I am definitely hoping to be more active this upcoming year! When thinking of a good post to create after my long hiatus, my first thought was another music playlist post. These posts are truly one of my favorites to create as I love finding music and love sharing them with others even more! I hope to create a master list of my top songs from this year so stay tuned for that in the coming weeks as well!
Consequences- orchestra // Camila Cabello
This song was my first find for the month and for my playlist. I had heard this song on a few occasions before from my friends, but truly found it myself and fell in love with it this month. While I typically tend to gravitate to much more upbeat songs for my playlists, I loved how raw and calming this song was and was definitely something I found to be on repeat many times this month!
All I Want For Chrismas Is You // Trap City
If you know me at all, you’d know I absolutely love Christmas music! Despite the fact that I’m Jewish, I listen to Christmas bops starting on November 1st all the way up until January 1st. I first heard this song in one of Hannah Meloche’s Vlogmas videos. After an unsuccessful attempt of trying to Shazam over the part where it had played and run through a good 100 comments below the video, this song was nowhere to be found. In a later video of her’s, I was successfully able to locate the album for this song and have since been obsessed. I absolutely love the cover of this classic Christmas hit as well as the remix to the music. While Christmas may be over for this year, I definitely recommend giving this one a listen for next year’s Christmas party!
Why Did You Do That? // Lady Gaga (A Star Is Born)
I was definitely late to the ‘A Star Is Born’ trend and just now saw this movie over my Winter Break. There was definitely a lot of buzz to the movie but I actually walked into the theater without knowing the plot or anything about the film I was going to see. While the movie was phenomenal, so was the music! I’m very particular about my country music but I did add one song to my playlist. “Why Did You Do That?” was a song played by Lady Gaga from a performance in the movie that I went out of my way to look up as I enjoyed listening to it that much! I definitely listened to this song several times after watching this movie and it’s definitely my favorite song from this album!
Blood // Water // grandson
This winter break I’ve gotten the chance to relax and watch some Netflix, one of those shows being Riverdale. I absolutely love the unique aesthetic the show has from the music to the lighting, everything is so well done! I found this song in one of the episodes and loved the vibe of it. It definitely reminded me of the show and was something I enjoyed listening to at the end of the month!
San Francisco // Galantis + Sofia Carson
While I only found this song about two days ago, it’s safe to say I’m completely obsessed! I found this via in Instagram Story and it’s been on repeat ever since. I’m a huge fan of Galantis and this particular style of music so it’s safe to say I’ll be listening to this one in 2019!
