Current Favourite Songs

Occasionally I write a post sharing my current favourite songs. It's about once a year and I've noticed that I've done it earlier and earlier each year! lol. You can see the previous posts at the links below:

So, these are my current favourites. :) For my "all time" faves, check out this post: https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2014/08/top-10-songs.html

 

 

Alina Baraz-If You Let Me

A few months ago, I bought If You Let Me from American singer Alina Baraz's EP Sunbeam (released last September). It's still one of my favourite songs at the moment, I like the dreamy, relaxed vibe and find it quite soothing. (I'm still in need of chilled songs after the last couple of years!)

Visit my post about Sunbeam to see the lyric video: https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2021/10/new-alina-baraz-ep.html

BTS- Home

A couple of months ago, I came across HOME, an older song by Korean group BTS on YouTube. It's from their 2019 EP MAP OF THE SOUL: PERSONA.

HOME is about how although they have become successful and can afford luxurious things, they still have a longing for "home" as in the support of loved ones and fans. They need somewhere/someone to come back to when things get hard.

I got an iTunes voucher for Christmas and this was one of the song I bought recently.

thuy- trippin'

I discovered American singer thuy's music last year. (Her name is stylised in lower case.). On of my favourite songs is trippin' from her EP "i hope u see this" (also written in lower case). 

trippin is about being in a difficult relationship. Please note it contains swearing. :)  



thuy's single "in my head" was also a Weekly Music Video last week: https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2022/02/weekly-music-video.html

 

B Young- Livin' Easy?

Finally, I'm also into Livin Easy? by British rapper and singer B Young. It's from his debut album Differences which came out last August. I heard it before and liked it, but I've started listen to it more in recent weeks.

The lyric video was a Weekly Music Video last month: https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2022/01/weekly-music-video_12.html

 

Hope you liked the post! :) What are you listening to currently?

25th Anniversary of Mariah Carey's Butterfly Album

My favourite singer Mariah Carey recently released a 25th anniversary edition of her 6th studio album Butterfly. The original album was released on 16th September 1997 and featured songs such as her hit single Honey, The Roof and My All. It was actually the first album I ever bought (on cassette tape, lol) and I still consider it one of my fave MC albums. :) Butterfly was the first album that Mariah had more control over and it is R'n'B, rather than the pop (and later pop/R'n'B) of her previous releases. It also has pop and hip hop influences. The expanded edition contain 8 extra tracks (the original standard edition has 12)- a duet version of Whenever You Call with Brian McKnight , a new take on The Roof featuring Brandy , live versions of Butterfly and My All, acapella versions of Fourth of July and Outside, an Amorphous Anniversary Club Mix of Butterfly (with DJ Amorphous ) and a remix of Honey (Another Taste of Honey David Morales Mix). I had previously heard the D

New Unexpected

We're finally getting the new season of the reality TV series Unexpected in the UK! Season 3 was shown in the US last summer , and I wondered when we'd get it here. I don't have any online streaming services so thought I'd just watch clips on YouTube, lol. However it's now starting here in early March. Similar to the popular MTV franchise Teen Mom , Unexpected focuses on teen parents. The first series featured 3 couples expecting babies- Lily Bennett and her boyfriend James Kennedy who have daughter Aaliyah, now 2;  Mckayla Adkins and partner Caelan Morrison who have son Timothy, also known as Timmy (and now daughter Gracelynn , born in January 2019), and  Lexus Scheller and boyfriend Shayden Massey who have daughter Scarlett. Season 2 saw the departure of Lilly and the addition of 3 new pregnant girls and their partners- Laura Barron and her boyfriend (now husband) Tylor Stawmyor who have son Lucas (and have since had another baby , a 2nd son, who is named Leo),
