‘Cause together we got plenty super power” “The laws of the world never stopped us once But it started to ring differently for me. Being stronger with each other than without. Sometimes it feels like a romantic track about someone discovering themselves through the love of someone else. What people read into this song is up to them. I’m literally shivering as I listen back to it right now. This song reminds me of winter, being wrapped in a scarf at the bus stop but my back is still tense from the cold. The biggest earworm and Frank Ocean’s tones help. Beyoncé- Superpowerįirstly, this was my absolute favourite song from the Beyoncé album. I hope someone out there has been converted onto these guys because I don’t understand why they’re still relatively under the radar. Past this, ‘The Lung’ has a beat you cannot ignore. I hope someone gets what I mean right now. And this goes for pretty much all the tracks on their album, Choose Your Weapon. It makes it perfect for this fictional self-love genre because in my opinion listening to this song makes me reflect inward. Being in a room and playing it out loud would feel weird, awkward. Very much a track I would listen to alone and only alone. The first 10 seconds of this song should give you enough indication of why I included it here. Self-healing, being one with who you want to be, what you want (all the mushy things in life). Nevertheless, it’s enough to let me come away from it feeling better about myself, uplifted and positive.Īctually coming to think about it if I was going to associate an artist with Law of Attraction, it would probably be Solange. It’s an intro but I really want it to have 5 extra minutes. Could probably recreate this masterpiece. It got to a point that I got the backing vocals down to a T.

I’m not sure if it’s the calm ambient feel or Solange’s soothing voice but the first time I heard this I had it on repeat for a full day just feeling a bit floaty. Solange – Riseĭo you ever hear a song that heals you? This is one of them for me. One of those refreshing get off the bed and rave songs. It’s an incredibly attractive chocolate dessert that doesn’t taste like bitter dirt.

I will never stop listening to Jamie XX’s track like it’s the first time. I have very little to say except please listen to The Persuasions ‘Good Times’ – the sample. I leave feeling warmer, comforted, a little bit more peaceful than before. She essentially takes me through those feelings and then into being there for myself (and others) when it gets hard. In my mind, it’s like someone talking to themselves and trying to ‘bring them down’ into reality a bit. This whole song is about how it feels to be mentally unwell, what signs there are. I couldn’t listen to this song and not think about personal self-care and mental health. There’s almost a minute of silence at the end – both for those victims and for all the emotional trauma being dealt with throughout. Its length is 5 minutes 22 seconds (5/22).

Get well soon is a song centred around Grande’s anxiety and a dedication to the victims and survivors of the Manchester bombing at her concert in May 2017. You can hear the Pharell magic sprinkled into it but it feels so natural – no forced top hits. This album was mature, emotional and most importantly a BOP. In my eyes, she went from a little Nickelodeon star who looked too sugar-coated, to a strong woman who had endured plenty and in all counts had the best intentions for herself and her fans. I never took Ariana Grande seriously before hearing the music she was making on this one. Shout at me if you have some amazing self-loving tunes that deserve notice! Now we’ll get into it… Ariana Grande – get well soon Sometimes it’s the lyrics, sometimes just the music, sometimes it’s the memory I associate with the song. This is my top 5 songs that make me feel warm and fuzzy about myself. And that I somehow get into all the Erykah Badu I just dumped in there. My only wish is that I always have such a mess of genre in my life. If I go a day without listening to ‘ Bangers never clangerz‘, my OG playlist, I was probably too busy to breathe.

NB: this is now a series I will eventually complete because after posting this article I was sent way more specific topic themes I cannot wait to dig into.Īnyone who knows me knows my passion for music. Hopefully, it’s so niche that I’m the only person worth reading on this topic. Here’s my take on songs that smell like self-love. We all love lists but I love lists totally specific to a feeling or idea.
