Cool and famous Western songs that are popular on the streets (71–80)

In Too DeepSUM41

This is a track by Sum 41, one of the leading bands of post-2000 new punk rock.

The song starts off quietly but gradually intensifies and erupts by the chorus.

Its bouncy rhythm is striking and makes you feel like getting up and dancing.

This song is by the American singer-songwriter Bruno Mars, and it expresses the sorrow of loving a woman with all his heart while she doesn’t love him the same way.

You can’t help but be drawn in by Bruno’s powerful vocals as he declares he wouldn’t hesitate to take a bullet to the head or throw himself in front of a train for her.

MidlandBurn Out

“Burn Out” by Midland, a three-piece country band from Texas, is a country song steeped in a mature mood.

The title “Burn Out” means something like “to burn out,” and here it likens a man’s burned-out feelings to a cigarette slowly burning away.

Even if you’re not strong in English, the melancholy really comes through in this track.

Even reggae tracks that have a strong cheerful and fun image can be seriously cool, right? This isn’t intense dancehall reggae, but a mid-tempo, mellow reggae tune.

It’s the perfect track that combines approachability and brightness—great as an entry point for reggae beginners.

Dean Lewis is a singer-songwriter from Sydney, Australia.

This track can be considered one of his signature works, and it gradually gained popularity after its release.

At the time he released this song, he didn’t have an album yet, and it was said that an album featuring this song as the lead track would be released.

In 2019, just as the rumors suggested, an album titled “A Place We Knew” was released, and this song is included on it.

Set in Detroit, the film 8 Mile portrays part of rapper Eminem’s life.

The song used in the movie is Lose Yourself.

The flow and the track are, in a word, just insanely cool.

Beyond the flow and the beat, pay attention to the rhymes.

In fact, this song is modeled on the fairy tale The Pied Piper of Hamelin.

It’s hip-hop, yet it deliberately takes a fairy tale as its motif.

That stylish rhyming is exactly what makes Eminem so compelling.

AliveEmpire Of The Sun

Empire Of The Sun – Alive (Official Video)

Here’s a feel-good track from the Australian music group Empire of the Sun that’s hugely popular at their live shows.

It’s a famous song, so some of you may have heard it before.

And if this is your first time, you’ll probably be blown away by their striking look.

Just like their appearance, their music gives you a strange sensation—as if you’re gradually wandering into another dimension as you listen.
