Afterglow of Dusk: Emo Western Songs Resounding at Summer’s End (81–90)
Firestone ft. Conrad SewellKygo
This song delivers a warm yet bittersweet emotion that strikes the heart on a summer evening.
Created by Norwegian artist Kygo and Australian singer Conrad Sewell, it was released in December 2014 and helped bring the tropical house genre to global prominence.
Light, breezy sounds woven from steel drums and marimba are layered with Sewell’s powerful, soulful vocals to express deep feelings for a loved one.
As its achievement of reaching No.
1 in Norway and entering the top 10 in many countries attests, it is a masterpiece that moves countless listeners.
It’s the perfect track for moments when you want to reminisce about a summer romance or feel the bond with someone special.
Summer’s EndFoo Fighters
Even though it just ended, some of you might already be aching for summer.
That’s where “Summer’s End” comes in.
It’s a track from Foo Fighters’ album Echoes, Silence, Patience & Grace.
The song captures the fragility of summer’s end, while telling us that although summer is over, it will come again.
It leaves you feeling motivated to hang in there so you can enjoy summer once more.
Self ControlFrank Ocean
It’s heartbreaking when a romance is nearing its end, isn’t it? Knowing the person you love is about to leave fills you with an unbearable feeling.
With that in mind, I’d like to introduce Self Control.
It’s a song released by Frank Ocean, one of America’s leading singers, and it’s earned high praise not only in the U.S.
but worldwide.
It’s a ballad that portrays the end of a summer love, so why not give it a listen when you’re relaxing on your own?
SeasonsThirty Seconds To Mars
In life, everyone experiences various changes—like meetings and partings, or shifts in the weather.
The song “Seasons” reminds us how important it is to accept those changes.
It’s the lead single from Thirty Seconds to Mars’ album “It’s The End Of The World But It’s A Beautiful Day.” Its profound message and somewhat wistful vocals are truly heart-wrenching.
San Francisco5 Seconds of Summer
After making a name for themselves as YouTubers, the Australian pop-rock band 5 Seconds of Summer made a professional debut and went on to gain worldwide popularity.
They’re very much a bona fide rock band, but since they share the same management as One Direction, they also enjoy idol-like popularity.
Among their works, the track “San Francisco” is perfect for the end of summer—a refreshing acoustic number that beautifully fits the season’s close.
