Favourite Songs of 2025

It's now a new year and here is the first post of 2026! :) In 2022 I started sharing my favourite songs from the past year (I wrote that post in December 2022). I've now made it in an annual tradition, usually at the beginning of the new year. You can see my previous posts at the links below:

And now here are my fave songs from 2025! :) 

 

As with 2024, I did a post about my current favourite songs earlier in the year (March 2025), so I will share it here, rather than repeat myself (some of them were released in 2024): https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2025/03/current-favourite-songs.html 

 

Nija- Heaven 

American singer Nija released the single Heaven in May. I like the chilled, R'n'B, "dreamy" vibes! It was a Weekly Music Video in June:  https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2025/06/weekly-music-video_18.html

 

The Kid LAROI- ALL I WANT IS YOU

Australian singer and rapper The Kid LAROI brought out ALL I WANT IS YOU in June. He released several other singles during 2025, including HOW DOES IT FEEL?, SHE DON'T NEED TO KNOW and  A COLD PLAY. His latest single is A PERFECT WORLD and his new album BEFORE I FORGET is due out on 9th January.

ALL I WANT IS YOU was also a Weekly Music Video in June: https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2025/06/weekly-music-video_25.html


Gen Neo- Can't Fool Nobody

Singaporean singer Gen Neo released Can't Fool Nobody in June. He's set to bring out a new EP Through Thick & Thin later this month but I don't think it's from that. The only single from the upcoming EP released so far is The Show, which came out in October.

Can't Fool Nobody is a smooth R'n'B ballad (English language) about the end of a relationship and who is to blame.

This is an audio. 

 

 

Janine- Fit 

New Zealand singer Janine released her debut studio album Pain & Paradise in August, which mainly consists of R'n'B tracks. One of my favourite songs from the album is Fit. I like quite a few of the tracks, including previously released singles like Best Thing and Broke Me Down, and newer songs like UP.

Fit is a more upbeat song, but with a chilled background. Janine has quite "breathy" vocals in this. It's not a single, so this is an audio.

Hope you liked the post! :) What are your favourite songs of 2025?

South Indian Videos

I've written several Bollywood posts this year but I don't feature South Indian music/films as much. So today I'm sharing some music and dance videos from Tollywood ( the Telugu language film industry) and Kollywood (the Tamil language film industry). :) Oo Antava Mawa- Pushpa- Dance Cover by Sonali First up is a dance cover of the song Oo Antava Mawa..Oo Oo Antava from the 2021 Tollywood film Pushpa: The Rise- Part 1 . I previously featured a dance cover of Oo Antava Mawa in a Dance Videos post in August last year. That one is by Rang De and you can see it here: https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2023/08/dance-videos.html This cover is by Indian choreographer Sonali Bhaduria, from LiveToDance with Sonali and was uploaded in January 2022. It's a shorter video.   For more on Pushpa and to watch the official Oo Antava Mawa video, check out my Tollywood Videos Round-up 2 post from September 2023: https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2023/09/tollywood-videos-round-up-2.html ...

Weekly Music Video

Sorry there wasn't a 2nd post last week, I was going through a bit of a stressful time and didn't manage to get one finished. :) This week's video is I CONDEMN by Australian singer and rapper The Kid LAROI . It was the first single from the deluxe version of his second album BEFORE I FORGET. The original album was released in January and the deluxe version came out on 24th April. It contains 9 extra tracks, including  I CONDEMN and latest single PIECES. I wasn't aware that there was a deluxe version until I saw that some new songs had appeared on Spotify! I like BEFORE I FORGET and my favourite songs from the original version are ME + YOU, JULY,  COME DOWN and RATHER BE featuring Australian rapper and singer Lithe . One of my fave songs on the deluxe version is QUIT YOU, and I also like HOLD STILL and I CONDEMN. The newest single PIECES came out on out the same day as the album. I CONDEMN was released on 17th April. As with the songs on the original BEFORE I FORGET, it...

K-pop Comebacks- BTS

Sorry the 2nd post is later again this week, I didn't manage to get it finished yesterday. :) Last month I started a mini series called K-pop Comebacks, featuring the comebacks of K-pop groups during 2026. The first one was about BLACKPINK and you can see it here:  https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2026/03/k-pop-comebacks-blackpink.html Today I'm focusing on BTS (one of the most popular Korean boybands ). They debuted in 2013 and are a 7-member group, made up of leader RM, formerly known as Rap Monster (real name Kim Nam Joon), SUGA (Min Yoon Gi), Jin (full name Kim Seok Jin), j-hope (Jung Ho-seok), Jimin (Park Ji Min), V (Kim Tae Hyung) and Jungkook (Jeon Jung Kook). * Since then, the boys have been very successful, not only in South Korea but internationally. They are probably one of the most well-known K-pop bands worldwide.  In June 2022, the group took a break while the members served their  mandatory military service in Korea and have also been concentrat...
