Hello and welcome back to the series on my blog where I recommend the best songs from each week’s music releases with an accompanying Spotify playlist! This week has a variety of genres from a new EP from the indie band Flipturn to a whole new album from Galantis or a new rock album from Green Day or some chill bops from JP Saxe’s new EP. Also 5 Seconds of Summer dropped a new song? And you can find some chill study beats from Tycho, too. As always you can find the playlist here or at the bottom of the blog post.

Here’s the best of the songs released the week of Friday, February 7, 2020.

POP N BOPS

No Shame: 5 Seconds of Summer

As someone who’s a huge fan of 5SOS, I was pretty much unable to contain my excitement when I heard they were dropping new music this week. One listen and I was already obsessed.

If I Ruled The World: MILCK

This world? I’d like to see it.

33 Days (feat gnash & Anna Clendening): Keenan, gnash, Anna Clendening

Caroline: Boy In Space

Everything Sounds Like a Love Song: X Ambassadors

Birthday: Anne-Marie

Gone: SAYGRACE

Was It All In My Head?: Olivia O’Brien

Let’s Be Friends: Carly Rae Jepsen

Roses: Adam Lambert, Nile Rodgers

Calling On Me: Sean Paul, Tove Lo

Intentions: Justin Bieber, Quavo

Ever Really Know: Jutes

Older: Conor Matthews

The FALSETTO. This song is so good.

No Judgement: Niall Horan

Know Your Worth: Khalid, Disclosure

I love both of these artists! Disclosure brings the fire beats and Khalid brings his incredible voice and uplifting lyrics. It’s a match made in heaven.

Love, Death & Dancing: Jack Garratt – Mara, Time – Radio Edit

I love Wrabel, you love Wrabel, we all love Wrabel. Getting over a break up? This song will hit you right in the feels.

Father of All…: Green Day – Oh Yeah!, Meet Me on the Roof, I Was a Teenage Teenager

I’m a big fan of Green Day’s new sound with this new album. I’ve included some of my favorites here but I definitely recommend listening to the entire album if you like what you hear from this playlist.

INDIE & CHILL

Hold It Together: JP Saxe – 25 in Barcelona, If The World Was Ending (feat. Julia Michaels), 3 Minutes

This whole EP is a freaking masterpiece. PLEASE go listen to it.

Self Aware Bitch: Anna Sofia

There For You: Nicklas Sahl

notice me – acoustic: ROLE MODEL

The EP version of “notice me” featuring BENEE was already perfect, but somehow ROLE MODEL leveled up and dropped this acoustic version that rivals the original.

Something You Needed EP: Flipturn – Savannah, Something You Needed, Glistening, Did I Love You (Like I Promised To)

It’s safe to say that is EP was something I needed. The transition from “Savannah” to “Something You Needed”? *chef’s kiss* “Did I Love You (Like I Promised To)?” A whole masterpiece.

Fire & Fury: Overcoats

Promises: Beach Bunny

Cigarette: Julian Lamadrid

I’m obsessed with the beachy vibes of this song. Definitely a new addition to my surf n skate playlist.

Oh Wonder creating this beautiful slow song about love? You love to see it.

If you’re into instrumental beats that’ll help making studying less painful, then you should definitely check out Tycho’s two new songs dropped this week. Or they could be a great background song for a drone video. They can be used for anything really.
