OneRepublic – Counting Stars

This is another song that became popular.

I heard it playing when I went to a sporting goods store.

Back when I was in high school, a lot of my friends knew it too, so I think it appeals to students.

It’s the kind of song you want to listen to on a starry night.

Oh My GodAdele

Adele – Oh My God (Official Video)

When it comes to songs that high school students listen to, most are catchy and poppy, or simply whatever’s trending.

But there are surely some people who want to listen to something more unique.

For those listeners, I recommend Adele’s “Oh My God.” Many people probably associate Adele with emotional ballads.

However, “Oh My God” is the complete opposite of that image—a cool, blues-tinged dance track.

Definitely give it a listen.
