Cool and acclaimed Western music masterpieces and popular songs in the streets (211–220)

You Found MeThe Fray

The Fray is a piano rock band based in Denver, United States.

Isaac, the lead singer and pianist, has said he wrote this song when his family and friends were going through difficult experiences.

It was inspired by his wondering why bad things keep happening to good people and what God is doing instead of helping us.

CheaterThe Vamps

The Vamps are a British pop-rock band, and this song is exhilarating, fresh, and cool.

It expresses the feelings of a boy trying to tell the girl he likes that her boyfriend is cheating on her, while honestly confessing that he could be the boyfriend who treats her right.

Somewhere ElseTravis

It’s the classic “Somewhere Else” by a Scottish rock band.

The depressive-leaning lyrics and languid melody have a Radiohead-like darkness, but the sound—rough yet delicate—is truly beautiful.

It’s easy to see why it’s called a masterpiece.

If you’re looking for high-quality female-fronted metal, I highly recommend UNLEASH THE ARCHERS.

They’re often compared to various genres—heavy metal, power metal, even melodic death metal—but they themselves say they’re not interested in labels and are “simply playing metal.” Their track Cleanse The Bloodlines is one of their coolest songs.

The middle-register vocals will give you goosebumps!

Buddy HollyWeezer

I’m not sure if it looks cool, but there’s no doubt it’s a masterpiece: Weezer’s “Buddy Holly.” It really feels like the origin of power pop and emo rock.

With a heavy guitar sound layered over a pop melody, it’s the perfect band for anyone who loves both hard rock and pop.

I Will Always Love youWhitney Houston

If I had to name the No.1 song that sounds coolest, it would be “I Will Always Love You.” It was sung with Whitney Houston’s beautiful voice and remarkable expressiveness.

Used as the theme song for the 1992 film “The Bodyguard,” it became an unprecedented worldwide hit.

Zedd’s “365” featuring Katy Perry was released and the music video dropped on Valentine’s Day in 2019.

In the MV, Katy Perry is a robot.

It’s a love song about thinking of the other person day and night, and the video is beautifully made.

You can’t take your eyes off robot Katy, and the story’s development is amazing too.
