Hey and welcome to my sixth blog post! I have just recently received a request of making some musical playlist for different events such as parties or workout sessions. I personally love this request due to the fact that music plays a very important role in my everyday life and I listen to it as much as I possibly can. Basically, this blog post will be filled up with a variety of playlist that I've used or that people I know have used fitting with different types of scenarios. Just a quick warning before we get started, some of these songs may not necessarily be appropriate for everyone due to it's language or its context. I apologize if some songs may not be to your liking, but I have based my playlist off of popular songs teens listen too in order to give the most accurate playlists. With that said, let's get started!
First things first, let's make a workout playlist! I find that some of the best motivation during a workout is up beat music. When a song has a fast beat, we tend to try and match our steps to the beat or get into a timed rhythm with our exercises forcing us to push ourselves harder and workout for longer. The following short list will provide you with great fast passed songs.
- Can't Hold Us ~ Macklemore & Ryan Lewis (I know many don't like this artist but this song is my personal favourite to listen to when running. The tempo set by the drums is perfect to match your steps too.)
- The Night Is Still Young ~ Nicki Minaj
- My House ~ Flo Rida
- Going Down For Real (GDFR) ~ Flo Rida
- Black Widow ~ Iggy Azalea
- Hey Mama ~ David Guetta
- Confident ~ Demi Lovato
- Me & My Girls ~ Selena Gomez (This starts off a little slow but once it picks up, it's a great song for workouts)
- Something Big ~ Shawn Mendes
- Hey Everybody ~ 5SOS
- Fancy ~ Iggy Azalea
- Timber ~ Ke$ha and Pitbull
- A Little Party Never Killed Nobody ~ Fergie, Q-Tip and Goonrook
- Work ~ Rihanna
- Run The World (Girls) ~ Beyonce
- The Monster ~ Eminem and Rihanna
- Stronger ~ Kelly Clarkson
- All I Do Is Win ~ DJ Khaled
- Turn Down For What ~ Lil John
- Jumpman - Drake
- Hotlinebling - Drake
Next, I'll be putting together a playlist that's perfect for 2016 summer pool parties. These songs are full of energy that will keep everybody in a nice, happy mood while enjoying swimming and tanning by the pool with their friends.
- Ain't It Fun ~ Paramore
- Everybody Talks ~ Neon Trees
- Riptide ~ Vance Joy
- Shut Up And Dance ~ Walk The Moon
- One Dance ~ Drake
- Really Don't Care ~ Demi Lovato
- Stitches ~ Shawn Mendes
- Cake by the Ocean Floor ~ DNCE
- Sit Still, Look Pretty ~ Daya
- All My Friends ~ Snakeship
- Locked Away ~ Rock City
- Trap Queen ~ Fetty Wap
- Never Forget You - Zara Larsson and MNEK
- House Party - Sam Hunt
- Work From Home - Fifth Harmony
- Don Let Me Down - The Chainsmokers
- Sorry - Justin Bieber
- What Do You Mean - Justin Bieber
- Same Old Love - Selena Gomez
- Me, Myself and I ~ G-Easy
- Ride ~ Twenty One Pilots
Alright so the third and final playlist of this post will be filled with relaxing songs. These songs are great to listen to when you’re studying, reading a book or (my personal favourite) when you’re trying to take a nap.
- Lay It All On Me - Ed Sheeran
- 7 Years - Lukas Graham
- Rise Up - Andra Day
- Fight Song - Rachel Platten
