🔵 threee songs for summer melancholy
It'll actually be 6 songs—I'm doing a double feature this week since I've been quiet for a while and the blues are real.
“when you tell me” by trndytrndy
Released July 2023—Spotify
Nostalgic synths leave enough room for a soaring chorus to close out this floaty song.
“striptease” by carwash
Released November 2019—Spotify
A summer love feels like it's coming to an end on this burner from LA-native carwash.
“i dont wna cry (haste)” by kurffew
Released January 2023—Spotify
I'm in my head again. I'm in my head again. I'm in my head again.
“Think Fast” by Dominic Fike feat. Weezer
Released July 2023—Spotify
Dominic really exemplifies the gen z knack for being genre averse on his latest album. Gorgeous instrumental and outro from Weezer.
“MY EYES” by Travis Scott
Released July 2023—Spotify
Sampha and Bon Iver featuring on a track together is guaranteed to yank a drop or two from my eyes. The clear Frank Ocean influence helps, too.
“Say Yes To Heaven” by Lana Del Ray
Released May 2023—Spotify
No one does summertime sadness like Lana.
