In reality i listen to hours of music a day whether that be me creating it, driving to school or anywhere, just while relaxing, or even occasionally sleeping. It's a safe bet to say that music is a large part of my life and I wouldn't want it any other way. Long ago I realized that I'll give just about anything a try and the same goes for my musical tastes. I like something in just about every genre.
Since I drive an excessive amount everyday I am going to make a playlist called “traffic-jam jams” , a slow pop-rock mixture, lol.
Black Madonna- Cage the Elephant(first of all, i am biased, i love cage the elephant and love their slower pop rock kind of style much like that of the arctic monkeys, i think that this song has very good instrumentals and is much more complex than most songs nowadays. It has a complicated chorus yet is catchy and means something.)
Imagination- Foster the people(this song is quite catchy and it feels just right for a traffic jam. It can pull you out of a bad mood but keep you calm at the same time. It's chill but has amazing instrumentals. It also has great bass in my car because I have nice speakers. )
Take me to church- Hoizer(although the actual meaning of this song is very morose and sad, it is still a song i know word for word and will scream in the car. In other words, it gets you excited and can make an otherwise aggravating traffic jam entertaining. It also has a very deep meaning behind the song that most dont know, it is about gay men being found out and killed in a community of religious extremists)
Broken Halos-Chris Stapleton(i love Chris Stapleton, one of my favorite country artists because his songs are much more complex and technically difficult than most country songs yet still extremely catchy. Amazing harmonies and vocal runs in this song. This song is one of his more upbeat songs and i felt like i should include one of his great songs and this one fit best in a playlist about entertaining you in an otherwise dull and frustrating situation, like a traffic jam)
Creep-Radiohead(this is a great song for the same reason as take me to church, it is rhythmically very satisfying and it has an actual meaning behind it. I feel like it's one of the rare songs that most people can relate to, know most of the words to so they can scream it in the car, and is actually catchy)
Honeypie- JAWNY(honestly, this song just slaps. It gets you hyped up, or at least it does for me. Has a very satisfying guitar backing and high hats. It makes you want to roll down the windows during the summer while driving.)
Heat Waves-Glass Animals(This song has a slower beat than most of the rest of these and it is more relative but I hypes you up. This song if fun to play loud with the windows down, it has really nice bass and is very catchy)
