Cool and popular Western music masterpieces and hit songs (181–190) that are the talk of the town
Need You NowLady Antebellum
A cool, soothing song I recommend is “Need You Now” by Lady Antebellum.
Even if you think, “How great would it be if a drugstore sold medicine to cure sadness and a broken heart!” there’s no such magic potion anywhere.
In times like that, try listening to this song.
Her singing gently tends to the wounds of the heart and helps them heal.
Cool and popular Western music classics and hit songs (191–200) that are trending
Are You Gonna Go My WayLenny Kravitz
Lenny Kravitz’s smash hit used in Japanese commercials, “Are You Gonna Go My Way,” is a headlong rush toward freedom.
The intro’s gritty guitar is striking and evokes the spirit of Jimi Hendrix.
The backing track has a retro vibe, with vintage instruments lending a distinctive character.
Hanging By A MomentLifehouse
An early big hit by Lifehouse.
It delivers a grand, quintessentially American rock sound.
This song was played constantly on the radio and MTV, and it really stuck in my head.
The slightly raspy vocals are so cool, aren’t they?
EarthLil Dicky
This song by Lil Dicky—an American singer, comedian, and environmental activist—features collaborations with global superstars like Ariana Grande and Justin Bieber.
It delivers a powerful message about the Earth’s environment and ecosystems.
It’s truly admirable when famous figures take a stand to send such strong messages.
This is a masterpiece whose lyrics I hope people really take to heart.
What Makes You CountryLuke Bryan
This is a song released in 2017 by Luke Bryan, who is famous as a country singer.
It has a very cool sound, with a country-style guitar phrase ringing out from the intro.
The open, uplifting chorus makes you feel good just by listening, so give it a spin when you’re tired or feeling down.
If you play guitar, it might be fun to try covering it.
AGUANILEMarc Anthony
In “Aguanile,” the congas lay down a snappy rhythm, the guitar kicks in with a stylish groove, multiple trumpets layer on top, and a beautifully complex, orchestrated Latin sound rings out, over which Marc Anthony’s energetic, powerful vocals deliver a stellar performance.
Without YouMariah Carey
Mariah Carey’s stylish song “Without You,” overflowing with sadness and poignancy, is such a wonderful piece of music that once you hear it, it will never leave your heart.
The original “Without You” was released on record and sung by the British rock group Badfinger about 50 years ago, in November 1970.
