Song of the Day. The most popular segment on this site, as voted on by the writers…aka: Me.
Solo by Clean Bandit feat. Demi Lovato
I declared this song the “Song of the Summer” before I even heard it, just based on it being Clean Bandit, who has made numerous appearances here with Rockabye (with Anne-Marie) and Symphony (Zara Larsson), as well as Song of the Year in 2014 with Rather Be, and they were teaming up with Demi Lovato.
But initial listens didn’t impress me, but like most good songs, it has grown on me over time!
I wanna f-woop, woop woop, but I’m broken hearted
Cr-cr-cry but I like to party
T-t-touch but I got nobody
Here on my own
I wanna f-woop, woop woop, but I’m broken hearted
Cr-cr-cry since the day we parted
T-t-touch but I got nobody
So I do it solo
Back To You by Selena Gomez
I love the sounds in this song, which I know is usually said for something like a rock song, but it really does have a nice ring to it.
We never got it right
Playing and replaying old conversations
Overthinking every word and I hate it
‘Cause it’s not me
And what’s the point in hiding?
Everybody knows we got unfinished business
And I’ll regret it if I didn’t say
This isn’t what it could be
Sit Next To Me by Foster The People
Foster the People was the first ever song of the day, back on April 15th, 2013, with Pumped Up Kicks, and it’s taken until now for them to get back into the mix.
Come over here and sit next to me
We can see where things go naturally
Just say the word and I’ll part the sea
Just come over here and sit next to me
And I’ll take you high
Meant To Be by Bebe Rexha feat. Florida Georgia Line
I don’t mean to be so uptight, but my heart’s been hurt a couple times
By a couple guys that didn’t treat me right
I ain’t gon’ lie, ain’t gonna lie
‘Cause I’m tired of the fake love, show me what you’re made of
Boy, make me believe
But hold up, girl, don’t you know you’re beautiful?
And it’s easy to see
