Cool and acclaimed Western music masterpieces and popular songs in the streets (211–220)
While I’m AliveSTRFKR
A popular track from the Polish indie pop band STRFKR, it’s a lively dance tune with a slightly nostalgic vibe that evokes MGMT.
Hugely popular across the U.S., they’re in high demand for festivals and live shows, and their Japan tour tickets sell out instantly.
Black Magic WomanSantana
A masterpiece of Latin music in which all the instruments—such as the technical tone of the electric guitar and the rhythms of the conga—interweave exquisitely is Santana’s “Black Magic Woman.” No matter how many years pass, this cool sound never loses its luster.
Slow DownSelena Gomez
Selena Gomez is an American actress and singer who got her start on the Disney Channel, and her relationship and breakup with singer Justin Bieber drew widespread attention.
This track is a cool dance-pop song that makes you want to move, perfect for getting the mood up at parties and the like.
Don’t miss the music video either—Selena’s dancing is seriously cool.
Wish You WellSigala, Becky Hill
A classic Sigala-style tropical house track.
It’s an anthem with an even stronger bounce, subtly tapping into current trends while firmly incorporating the EDM sound that dominated the 2010s, making it a powerful dance number.
This MV is a lyric video! The lyrics are easy to follow, so it’s a song I’d recommend to fans of Western music.
The Less I Know The BetterTame Impala
This is a worldwide hit from the Australian psychedelic rock band Tame Impala.
It somehow feels nostalgic—psychedelic and so pleasant you’ll want to listen to it over and over, with a drifting, floating vibe.
The music video’s world-building is pretty interesting too!
The ConceptTeenage Fanclub
There’s a band I’d definitely include in the category of classic Western pop/rock: Teenage Fanclub.
Their music might appeal more to connoisseurs, but that’s precisely why its charm doesn’t fade with time.
Among their well-loved songs and loyal fanbase, the fact that Teenage Fanclub is still active today is proof of how beloved they are.
Race For The PrizeThe Flaming Lips
If someone asks you to play a cool song, putting on this track by The Flaming Lips might convince just about anyone.
That’s how refined and cool its world is.
If I went over to my boyfriend’s place and he said he liked this kind of music, I’d think he has really good taste.
This is getting a bit personal, but it truly is a seriously cool classic.
