Cool and highly acclaimed Western music classics and popular songs (141–150)
Worth ItFifth Harmony
Fifth Harmony is a five-member American girl group from the audition show The X Factor, and in this song they collaborate with the rapper Kid Ink.
Marking a shift from their previously cute teen-pop style to a more mature and sexy direction, the song also carries a message to young women to believe in their own worth.
The PretenderFoo Fighters
This is a song where former Nirvana drummer Dave Grohl handles guitar and vocals and also composed it.
It’s powerful and hard, yet the melody is catchy and cool.
I think it’s a track that offers a glimpse of his remarkable talent.
DiscreciónGirl Ultra
Girl Ultra is a Mexico-born artist known for her smooth R&B.
Interestingly, she was actually a member of a disco band during her school days.
Hard to imagine given her current smooth R&B sound, right? Perhaps because of that background, she says she draws strong inspiration from songs of the ’80s.
It’s true—the melodies don’t really feel like ’90s R&B.
Latin R&B is famous for its exceptionally high quality.
If you’ve mostly listened to English-language R&B until now, definitely give her a listen!
The Other Side of ParadiseGlass Animals
From Glass Animals’ second album comes a fan-favorite track by the promising band whose debut album has been streamed over 200 million times worldwide.
Their uniquely airy sound—blending electro, R&B, and dubstep—is truly addictive.
Boom ChildHiatus Kaiyote
When asked which neo-soul band was most active in the 2010s, many would probably name Hiatus Kaiyote.
They’re a band whose music is striking for combining stylishness with cool melodies that evoke neo-soul pioneer D’Angelo.
Their track “Boom Child” is a classic released in 2012.
This time, I’ve chosen the live version recorded for Fuse TV’s “Live Alive.”
