Best Day Of My LifeAmerican Authors

American Authors – Best Day Of My Life

It’s an excellent rock number that sounds fresh and rhythmically rich.

Heavy, intense rock is great too, but I think for today’s youth, songs like this—moderate and well-balanced—fit the global trend better.

It’s also perfect for listening to in the summer.

The NightsAvicii

Avicii – The Nights

Avicii, who passed away suddenly in 2018.

It’s truly heartbreaking to wonder why someone who could create such upbeat, cool tracks is no longer with us.

The song I’m introducing today is a single released in 2014.

The Avicii sound is alive and well—it’s a track that makes you sway to the beat and want to sing along to the chorus.

It seems perfect as a driving companion, giving you a fresh, breezy ride.

A great pick for summer, too.

JuiceLizzo

Lizzo – Juice (Official Video)

You can feel a return to the disco sound of the ’80s—a funky yet nostalgic pop mood that simply makes you happy just by listening.

It seems perfect for a seasonal drive as we head into the full swing of summer.

The positive lyrics are sure to lift your spirits! Lizzo, a hugely popular female rapper and singer with overwhelming presence and personality who isn’t afraid to put out social messages, released this hit track in 2019.

She’s drawing attention as a new pop icon.

is a collaboration by Latin singer Sofia Reyes, British singer and actress Rita Ora, and Brazilian songstress Anitta.

Here We Go AgainOliver Tree & David Guetta

Oliver Tree & David Guetta – Here We Go Again [Lyric Video]

The album Here We Go Again features sound production by David Guetta and vocals by Oliver Tree.

It includes many upbeat dance tracks, but the title track Here We Go Again has become especially popular for its high addictiveness.

The song is about a vicious cycle of repeated failures.

By repeating the same phrases within a narrow range, it expresses that negative loop.

The music video, which showcases unique movements, is also a hot topic.
