Music Notes: The Songs I Have on Replay

 

 

Music is such a significant part of my life.

I began my musical career at the age of 5 with private voice lessons, quickly began to study classical piano at 6 for over eleven years, and because I never do anything halfway: picked up violin and dance beginning at 8 and 9 for over six years.

Below is a list of songs to add to your playlist while at the gym, working, getting ready for a night out and more.

 

At the gym

The fastest, loudest most high energy beats are bumping while I complete my morning run. To keep my energy levels high but also to prevent myself from hearing just how loud I’m breathing and tired I sound (no really, this is why.)

• Zero – Chris Brown
• Change My Mind – Avery Wilson
• Just Stay Right Here – 10digits
• Beast – Mia Martina
• Saved – Ty Dolla $ign
• Bad – Lost Kings feat. Jessame (Radio Edit)
• Pure Grinding – Avicii

 

While doing my makeup

I have something girly, and fun playing as blessed caffeine begins coursing through my veins.

• Hide Away – Daya
• We Don’t Have to Take Our Clothes Off – Ella Eyre
• Dangerous Part 2 – David Guetta
• Pillowtalk – Zayn
• Be Alright – Ariana Grande (from her latest drop, soooo good.)
• Here for You – Kygo

 

During my commute

I’m typically reading or studying, so something with a slower pace that allows me to concentrate while still stay engaged.

• Lush Life – Zara Larsson
• Echoes (Edeemz Remix) – Lauren Aquilina
• Something New – Zendaya
• Solid – Ty Dolla $ign
• Drunk In The Morning – Lukas Graham
• Feel It – tobyMac

 

While writing or at work

Understandably soft, light providing a bit of inspiration but mainly for background noise and to mask any distractions.

• Things – Maggie Lindemann
• Something Sweet – Madison Beer
• Fast Car – Jonas Blue
• We Try but We Don’t Fit In – Day Wave
• Fighter Pilot – Sanders Bohlke
• All My Friends – Snakehips

 

When I need to be inspired

These songs provide me a lift and a little food for thought, I love Tim McGraw’s song on this list and listen to it at least once a day.

• Dreams – Life of Dillon
• Running Out – Matoma
• Where It All Begins – Hunter Hayes
• Fragile – Kygo (his latest, I love love love Kygo as I noted in this previous past)
• Music To My Soul – Cee Lo Green
• Humble And Kind – Tim McGraw
• Solid – Ty Dolla $ign

 

While feeling loved 

Because.. there’s nothing like love and these songs take on new meaning when you’re in it.

• This Love – Jessica Sanchez
• Heaven Knows (Remix) – Tessanne Chin
• Stick Around – Akon
• Somebody To Love – Kacey Musgraves
• Only One – Kanye West
• Little More (Royalty) – Chris Brown Deluxe Version
• Make My Love Go – Jay Sean
• Hypnotized – Akon
• Lava – Kuana Torres Kahele

 

When preparing for a night out

Enjoyed with a glass of wine while deciding on shoes to compliment my dress, charging my phone and per usual…running late.

• In My Room – Yellow Claw
• In The Night – The Weekend
• Adventure Of A Lifetime – Coldplay
• Player – Tinashe
• All Eyes On You – Meek Mill
• Valet – Eric Bellinger
• Hello Friday – Flo Rida (this is kind of my jam right now, you can see my moves via my SnapChat, just kidding I wouldn’t punish you like that.)
• Like I Would – Zayn (another one of my high energy favorites)

 

What are some of your current favorite songs and when do you prefer to play them?
