Rhythimia’s Top 5 Mondays
Mondays are pretty blah aren’t they? We agree, we hate them too. As part of our newest segment, Rhythimia will now be publishing bi-monthly Top 5 lists on the first and last Monday of the month. Why not make your Monday an exciting on? As the month is already halfway through it’s time, it is now time to reflect back on some of the most recently anticipated music.
5. BELIEVER - IMAGINE DRAGONS
Alt-rock band Imagine Dragons released their hit single ‘Believer’ almost two months ago, but already, it is climbing its way to the top. The music video has already reached over 30 million views on YouTube, and the number is climbing rapidly!
4. BLAME - BASTILLE
London-based alternative band, Bastille, is enticing audiences yet again with their newest single, ‘Blame’. Lead singer Dan Smith and the rest of the gang have produced a grungy, deeply-dark song that is the perfect debut for their new album, WILD WORD.
3. STILL BREATHING - GREEN DAY
Wait no more! Green Day is finally back after their nearly 10 year hiatus. The U.K based band treated fans to some classic Green Day-style rock, with their newest single, ‘Still Breathing’. The song is extremely reminicent of their past “American Idiot” sounds. The song is currently sitting at a decent 7 million views on YouTube (risen from only 5 million two weeks ago). This newest release proves that the band is indeed still breathing, and also rising on the charts.
2. DOWN - MARIAN HILL
Minimalistic indie band Marian Hill is making its mainstream debut with their latest single, ‘Down’. The song features sultry piano compositions mixed with modern and electronic beats and synth. The song is currently at nearly 12 million views on YouTube. The song is being played on radio stations across the world. The success comes after the band’s rise to stardom due to their collaboration with Romanian singer Inna. Are you down with this song? We sure are.
1. GREEN LIGHT - LORDE
She’s back! After taking a few years off, Lorde surprised us all with the unexpected release of her new single , ‘Green Light’. This feel good anthem is being praised as the ‘song of summer 2017′. Lorde has taken on a new song never before heard by us. In contrast to her previously dark, serious music, Green Light shows us her fun and light-hearted side. Green light depicts the story of letting go, letting loose and having fun. We can’t wait to hear what Lorde will release next!
