Stevie Wonder & Ariana Grande - Faith
As you probably already know, i am a massive fan of both Stevie Wonder and Ariana Grande so when i found out that they were releasing a song for the upcoming movie "Sing", i was overjoyed! The two voices are quite different but they compliment each other perfectly in this song. The song is also really catchy and 'feel-good' which is another reason why i love it. If you have the time, give this a listen down below as the song is quite gospel which i love as a genre as it, in my opinion, really showcases the artists vocals, something which it especially does in this song.
Bruno Mars - Versace On The Floor
If you read my second-to-last post, you will know that Bruno Mars is one of the few people that i really want to see live (that i haven't seen before) and this song just solidifies that opinion incredibly. The song "Versace On The Floor" is mind-blowing and is 100 percent the best in this post. I just love the song as it is so heartfelt and also quite cheeky in a subtle way! The song is also written and produced entirely by Bruno Mars which i find amazing as only a short amount of people have the capable skills to do so. If you have been living under a rock and have never listened to Bruno Mars before, please do so, just make sure you listen to this song down below first!
Alessia Cara - How Far I'll Go
Next we've got another song from an upcoming movie, this time its from the Disney film "Moana" and its by one of my favourite artists at the moment, Alessia Cara! You may already know that i have loved Alessia Cara and her 'husky' voice since she released her first single and this song definitely does not disappoint. The song is very laid-back compared to her other songs but it also very catchy which is important within a song. I cannot wait for this film to come out as i am a big Disney fan but also to hear this song within it! The song is honestly great and i recommend you listen to it below.
Lady Gaga - Million Reasons
This next song is by an artist who I'm not particularly a fan of but i fell in love with the song after hearing a YouTuber called Sarah Close cover it (a blogpost regarding her will be up next week). I have now added the song to my playlist and it happens to be one of my favourites. You can tell that the song is rather emotional and honest by just hearing the first few lines but i really pulls you in and you feel almost connected to the song! Im going to attach the Sarah Close version that i fell in love with below in the hope that you do to and after that, please go and check out the original.
James Arthur - I Am
Ever since he was on X Factor, i have always liked James Arthur as he was never afraid to be truthful in his music and after what seemed to be a downward spiral, he brought it back with his latest album "Back From The Edge" which actually debuted at number one. My favourite track from the album has to be "I Am" as it is so aggressive and powerful. The song is almost captivating and i have to say, after "Versace On The Floor", this has to be my favourite song on this chart. I am also very excited as i got tickets to this years Jingle Bell Ball which James is performing at, fingers crossed he sings this song; go listen to it below.
Drake - Fake Love
Since the release of his album "Views", my love for Drake has grown rapidly as every song on that album is incredible, not needing me to skip any songs! After his immense success, i was so happy to find out that Drake was immediately returning to the music scene with this song as it is one of his best in my opinion. The song just makes you want to dance and sing along which is amazing considering its from a rap artist. In the space of about two weeks, i know nearly all of the words to this song and i expect it will be one of my favourites for a very long time. I personally think, at this present time, Drake is the best rapper! Sadly, this song cannot be attached to the post but i promise it is worth using your spare time to check it out.
Little Mix - F.U.
Little Mix are perhaps one of my favourite artists at the moment as they show such versatility in their music. The song "F.U." (a subtle swearing reference the girls are hiding from their young audience) is from their upcoming album "Glory Days" and it is phenomenal. The song sounds incredibly different to their other material as it is very jazzy, a new direction which i like for the girls! I have to admit, at first, i thought it couldn't be them as it sounds so different and i guess you would have the same reaction too. The song is very catchy and i love singing along to it! I also cannot wait to hear it live next year when i see the four girls on tour which i know will be amazing! Anyways, please go and listen to this song down below (it is sadly pitched higher due to YouTube's copyright) as i know you won't regret it.
So i hoped you enjoyed these seven songs as much as i do. As I've said before, this is one of my favourite posts to write so expect more in the future :)
