New Songs In May To Help With The Quarantine Blues
We are either all fools or no one is at this point, but most of us are starting to feel the itch of isolation, worry, and quarantine. So here are a few tunes to help take your mind off it all (albeit temporarily.)
Troye Sivan releases, “Take Yourself Home,” a sweet and touching rumination on the search for one’s place in the world. With dreamy vibes and reflecting moments, it can be your phonographic bubble bath.
Drake’s Toosie Slide is not only a new song, but an early designed TikTok hit. The Canadian rapper sought out influencers in advance on the platform to create dance videos to create an instant success before it was even released. By the time of its debut in early April, “Toosie Slide” was already charting. It’s a mellow instrumental riff with a trap beat, but the catchy dance instructions are what will keep people either dancing or simply putting one foot in front of the other after binging on food, alcohol, NetFlix, or all of the above: “Right foot up, left foot slide.”
Don't Worry Be Happy, is a catchy little acapella ditty that has put a spring in the step of listeners for generations. I dare you to listen to this song once and not be whistling along by the end.
Good Life, by One Republic, is as catchy as all their tunes and, also like most of their tunes, should put you in a mood to run a marathon.
Pharrell Williams just knows how to make you feel a little better with his song, Happy. It's almost impossible to not feel just a little better when listening to this. Even if you've run out of toilet paper.
No matter what, keep your chin up. One day at a time is all it takes. Heck even taking it three minutes at a time to enjoy some uplifting music may make your day a little brighter.
