#bryansanon

i lowkeke missed a bunch of days so to make up for it i’ll do 15 artists (rip to my fingers after typing this)

Benson Boone: 43.9m monthly listeners -> Beautiful Things

why: in all honesty i mostly like this song because it blew up but i also love its meaning. like it’s actually so real having this fear that you’ll lose all this happiness you’ve recently acquired with a person.

Billie Eilish: 91.6m monthly listeners -> CHIHIRO

why: CHIHIRO has stuck with me since it came out omg. that song helped me get through a lot, like just blasting it through my headphones was so therapeutic. i love everything about it, the meaning, the sound, that one part between 4:16-4:59, it’s all amazing. plus i love Spirited Away and to see one of my favorite artists make a song titled after the main character of one of my favorite movies was amazing, especially knowing she enjoyed the movie too.

Black Box Recorder: 2.1m monthly listeners -> Child Psychology

why: so i regret to inform you all that i only know two songs by Black Box Recorder, those being Child Psychology and Seasons In The Sun. i tried listening to them because it was recommended to me by like everyone on Pinterest for some reason but it wasn’t something i got super into. like don’t get me wrong they’re amazing they’re just not something im super into but definitely check out Child Psychology. i love Child Psychology because of the storytelling of it all like i don’t know the concept of it is just so interesting ykwim?

Bo Burnham: 3.4m monthly listeners -> Goodbye

why: i may get called cringe for choosing this song and maybe even just following Bo Burnham in the first place but i really don’t care. he’s not an essential to my music taste but he was a big impact on me. dude, if you were conscious during like 2020-like late 2022 (maybe early 2023 i can’t remember very well) you know this man carried the povs on youtube shorts and tiktok. i swear i would see a vid with one of his songs every few scrolls and its not a bad thing, like his songs were genuinely good just my thing was that them being played over and over by pov tiktokers/youtubers made his music lose its charm, like it was so well known and overplayed it wasn’t as good anymore. don’t get me wrong this is not hate i absolutely love Bo Burnham. anyway, i chose Goodbye because its just generally one of my favorite songs from him and in all honesty i think its one of his best songs.

BoyWithAUke: 4.5m monthly listeners -> Toxic

why: in all honesty i feel kind of bad because i never truly explored his music and i wish i had (not like i can’t now but still) because Toxic is really good. like Bo Burnham, his song, Toxic lowkeke carried during the early 2020s and it’s stuck with me. i love its meaning and can honestly relate to it, he has an amazing voice and it kinda makes me sad that pretty much no one (at least on my side of the internet) ever talks about him anymore :(.

Britney Spears: 44.6m monthly listeners -> Oops!…I Did It Again

why: to start things off i wanna just say that the things that have happened to her through the years is so saddening and i feel incredibly sorry for her for her. i grew up with Britney and seeing the state she’s in now makes me so sad, she deserved a better life without dealing what she had to. but regardless i need to talk about the song i chose, i chose Oops!…I Did It Again because even if maybe many others would say she has a lot better songs, i really like this song. the part i’ve always loved was between 2:12-2:31 because i just love how it fits the song and i just love things like this in songs as well as sampling older media (which im aware this isn’t a sample of old media).

Bryansanon: 1.3m monthly listeners -> LEMME TALK TO EM

why: i feel like Bryansanon is under appreciated like i know most people have probably heard his music before. he made the hit, MOVE YO BODY and i feel like people skipped over that. i see people hype up other artists because of their trending songs and yet i never see anyone hyping up Bryansanon! his music is so good and he should have a lot more listeners in my opinion.

BUCK-TICK: 266.5k monthly listeners -> ROMANCE

why: so i must admit, i found out about this band because i saw their (very handsome) lead singer, Atsushi on pinterest and i wanted to know if he was a solo artist or part of a band and if his music was any good. so i found BUCK-TICK. ROMANCE has always stuck with me because it sounds phenomenal and i love the meaning behind it. rest in peace, Atsushi Sakurai, you absolute baddie 😢.

Cass Elliot: 2m monthly listeners -> Dream A Little Dream Of Me

why: i absolutely love this song! it’s so hauntingly beautiful to me it’s on the same level of I’ll Never Smile Again type of hauntingly beautiful. i found Cass because of The Mamas & The Papas which is one of my favorite bands. i just cannot stress enough how much i love this song because it sounds the way it sounds, her voice is so beautiful.

Cavetown: 5.1m monthly listeners -> Meteor Shower

why: honestly not much to say, they’re not essential to my music taste but i really enjoy this song. it was recommended to me by my cousin who absolutely loves Cavetown so i listened to it. i like a few other songs but this one is def my favorite it’s so nice on the ears.

Chappell Roan: 35.5m monthly listeners -> The Subway

why: i love the songs meaning but as stupid as it sounds, my favorite part is the chorus and how it switches between “she’s got a way” and “she got away”. that’s kind of all, that and it’s very catchy.

Charli xcx: 32.1m monthly listeners -> Girl, so confusing featuring lorde

why: i absolutely fell in love with this song upon first listening to it. the beat, the vibes, the lyrics, everything is amazing!! i love how people thought it was about he beef between her and lorde when in reality it was about how the industry pits up successful women (specifically pop stars) against each other. the meaning is so amazing to me and the vocals are so hypnotic.

Childish Gambino: 30.1m monthly listeners -> Me and Your Mama

why: the guitar in this song is gorgeous oh my gosh! i love the lyrics and how it’s about romantic obsession and the desperation for his partner’s love.

Chrystal: 13.7m monthly listeners -> The Days - NOTION Remix

why: i would love to say that i know this song because im cool and niche but unfortunately its because i keep hearing it everywhere (😢). its amazing i love the overall vibes and the feeling of nostalgia that overcomes me listening to this even though its relatively new.

Cigarettes After Sex: 32.6m monthly listeners -> Nothing’s Gonna Hurt You Baby

why: i love this song because of the slow and tenderness of it. the way it’s supposed to make a protective safe place for the partner is just so sweet idk.

(it’s a lot, approach with caution)
