Great English-language songs recommended for women: world classics and popular hits

Christmas time againAshanti

LECIEL – Christmas Time Again Freestyle (Ashanti – Christmas Time Again )

I personally love the songs where Ashanti is featured with other singers, but this one is my number-one Western Christmas ballad.

From the intro, it overflows with Christmas vibes and moves me so much I feel like I could cry.

If I were to compare it to a Japanese song, it might be like Dreams Come True’s “WINTER SONG.”

Beyoncé – Me, Myself and I (Video Version)

Beyoncé in this song is super cute.

She’s truly an idol—almost like a goddess.

This slow-tempo track is one I especially want women to listen to.

It’s about love and encourages a positive outlook, like being your own best friend.

EverytimeBritney Spears

Britney Spears – Everytime (Official HD Video)

This is a song that was included with the Britney album I bought.

It’s a ballad, which isn’t very common for Britney.

I’m really drawn to its sad vibe and I love it.

It’s the kind of song you want to listen to when you’re heartbroken or when it’s raining.

Apparently, it’s actually an apology song from Britney to the boyfriend she cheated on.

This is a ballad sung by Canadian diva Celine Dion that expresses a resolve to give everything for love.

With its grand melody and powerful vocals, it deeply moves listeners.

It’s included on the album “A New Day Has Come,” released in March 2002, and has been showcased as one of the highlights of her Las Vegas performances.

It’s the perfect song for those who believe in the power of love—something anyone with experience in romance can relate to.

1 spot on Nigeria’s charts.

In this summer love song, Amerie is adorable and LL Cool J is cool—the two are a perfect match.

It almost makes you think they’re actually a couple.

The vibe is super summery, a song that fits perfectly with blue oceans and white sandy beaches.

You can really feel how much they love each other, and it makes you feel happy.
