[Western Music] Bright Friendship Songs: Introducing Upbeat and Hype Tracks (71–80)
True.FriendHannah Montana
For people in their teens and twenties, when friendship matters most, this song will really hit home.
It’s a song that makes you appreciate the value of friendship, and those precious moments will become even clearer as life goes on.
It’s one of the finest songs in pop music.
Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots Pt. 1The Flaming Lips
Finally, we have a wonderfully weird band that America can be proud of.
They started out as a garage rock outfit, and now they release works that ignore genres altogether.
Personally, I think this song is their best; it portrays the battle and friendship between a robot and Yoshimi (a human).
i’ll be your friendBright Eyes
It’s like a prime example of a new friendship song.
Bright Eyes has a very distinctive voice, and once you hear this, you’ll never forget it.
He’s also extremely prolific and has released many songs, making him an artist you’ll sometimes want to binge-listen to.
Best FriendB.o.B
Hip-hop has grown increasingly extreme in its songs and style year by year, and that’s also its essence.
This track is about friendship, too, but its content is intense.
Old FriendsEverything But The Girl
Everything But The Girl is a group that was hugely active in the ’80s.
In this song, their signature delicate female vocals and gently dreamy sound come together beautifully.
I’m not sure if it should be called dream pop, but listening to it now, that’s how it feels to me.
