Here is the top three songs I can’t stop listing to this week:
- Helena Beat - Foster the People
- She’s So Up - The Knux
- Love Out of Lust - Lykke Li
Helena Beat - If you like MGMT, Passion Pit, Peter Bjorn and John tunes, this is a song not to let you down.
She’s So Up - Alternative Hip-Hop + Catchy Up-beat Rock Rhythm = You’ll be sing and strutting your stuff in no time.
Love Out of Lust - An excellent song to stroll the park, sit and think, or fall asleep to. Harmonic instruments and soft echoed voice(s) make this an easy listen.
