Happy NMF! This week’s selection of songs includes the latest from pop stars, Miley Cyrus, Calvin Harris, Ellie Goulding & Meghan Trainor, as well as alternative artist, Tame Impala, and alternative pop group, Echosmith!
“River” by Miley Cyrus
🕺 Groovy beats! That pre-chorus is very dance worthy! What a perfect follow-up single to her Billboard hit, “Flowers!” This is highly likely going to be her next mainstream radio hit single!
😍 Perfect for those who’ve found their one true love in life! You want to spend the rest of your life with this special someone.
🖤🤍 I love the black-and-white aesthetic going on in the music video. It encapsulates that raw yet refreshing feeling of being in love.
💦 The water splashing around in the second half of the video evokes sensual feelings.
“Miracle” by Calvin Harris w/ Ellie Goulding
🙏 If you made a mistake in a relationship and want to beg for forgiveness from your lover, then this song will speak to you!
💯 Props to Harris for making another smash single! Guaranteed to be played in clubs, raves, festivals, and dance halls worldwide! This is the third time he’s worked with Goulding; they keep one-upping themselves every time they do! See the other two times they collaborated here: “I Need Your Love,” and “Outside”
📱 Add this track to your workout playlists now! It will give you the pep you need for the day!
♥ Love the electronic beat starting at 1:00!
“Mother” by Meghan Trainor
🙌👩 That first line goes two ways! Yes, she’s a mother and yes, she’s mother to her dedicated fanbase, the Megantronz!
👏👏 S/O to The Chordettes’ “Mr. Sandman” being sampled here! Props to Trainor for incorporating this feel-good ’50s classic!
💩 Cut the crap, and respect your lady today! Listen to your wife, your mom, or any of your female members in the household because chances are, they are right, and you are wrong! Quit the mansplaining and own up to your mistakes.
🎬👩 Kris Jenner guest stars in the official music video! How appropriate because she’s a mom too and also March is Women’s History Month.
📸 Look at her proudly showcasing her sonogram photos! You can tell she’s excited to be a mom again!
“Wings Of Time” by Tame Impala
🎞 This new single by Kevin Parker a.k.a. Tame Impala is for the forthcoming Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves movie (in theaters March 31st.)
⚔ You get the triumphant vibes in the track! Play this song with your favorite pair of headphones or earbuds when you are victorious or celebrating an amazing feat!
🎸🥁 Love the commanding guitar and drumline! It illustrates the heroes defeating the villains trope really well!
⚕ Sending healing vibes to Mr. Parker as he’s recovering from a hip fracture.
“Hindsight” by Echosmith
🗣 Love this latest easy-listening track by the Sierota siblings! Sydney’s vocals are dreamy, refreshing, and breathy! The instrumentation is on point! Perfect for those nice long drives with the windows down open!
🤔 Lyrically, the song will have you contemplating the past as you make sense of what was done. Hindsight is really 20/20 for a lot of listeners! But hopefully with the stuff in the past in the rearview mirror, you can enjoy the present a little bit more! Appreciate life as it is right now is amazing advice for everyone to follow!
🌞 I look forward to their next song and eventual new album! The future is looking bright for the Echosmith trio!!
