A song I’d love you to relax with on a leisurely day off is “Selfish.” It was created in 2022 by Good Boy Daisy, a music duo made up of sisters.

The track blends danceable electronica with passionate guitar sounds.

Their cute vocals—by artists known for their glamorous, striking looks—are a must-hear.

The result is a punkish sound overflowing with a girly aesthetic.

Why not sway to the brisk rhythm guitar and take it easy?

, a saxophonist revered by many artists to this day as the father of smooth jazz.

He left behind numerous classics, but “Just the Two of Us (feat.

While it features Bill Withers, the saxophone parts hold their own against the vocals.

Even so, the melody remains smooth and never overbearing.

If you want to spend your day off in style, be sure to give it a listen.
