Her energetic, humorous vocals add a refreshing splash of color as background music for school festivals and cultural events.

3 on the US Billboard Hot 100.

The music video, directed by Dave Meyers and set on a beach, brings out her charm to the fullest.

Hugely popular especially among young listeners and a hot topic on social media, this song resonates pleasantly even in calmer spaces like concession stands and rest areas.

This is the one best love song chosen by teens! The song is called “I Love You Like a Love Song.” In the music video, a tone-deaf, mysterious man suddenly starts singing, and then a Chinese person speaks Japanese.

The MV makes no sense at all, but that’s exactly what makes it interesting—definitely worth watching!

WolvesSelena Gomez, Marshmello82rank/position

Pop music featuring shadowy electric guitar tones and a catchy, country-flavored chorus.

Highly recommended.

Its stylish lyrical approach makes you want to sing it at karaoke and is a perfect fit for teenage girls.
