By Your SideSade

A single cut from the British band Sade’s fifth album, Lovers Rock, released in 2000.

Over an utterly stripped-down, simple backing track, vocalist Sade Adu’s voice resonates with a smoky allure.

Beautiful DayU2

U2 – Beautiful Day (Official Music Video)
Beautiful DayU2

This is a song released in 2000.

At the Grammy Awards in the United States, it won in three categories: Record of the Year, Song of the Year, and Best Rock Performance by a Duo or Group.

Built around the sublime sound of classic rock, it’s a work that also fully captures a rich sense of atmosphere.

JadedAerosmith

It’s a song by Aerosmith included on their 13th album, “Just Push Play,” released in 2001.

It became a major hit and won “Best Hard Rock Clip of the Year” at the Billboard Music Awards that same year.

In Japan, it was featured in a Coca-Cola commercial and garnered widespread attention.

GirlsThe 1975

The 1975 – Girls (Official Video)
GirlsThe 1975

This is a song included on the British young band The 1975’s album THE 1975, released in 2013.

I think they’re a band that simultaneously conveys both freshness and a traditional UK rock vibe.

“Girls” might sound like universal pop at first, but if you listen closely, you’ll find it has several quirky twists that make it enjoyable.

HolidayGreen Day

Green Day – Holiday [Official Music Video] [4K Upgrade]
HolidayGreen Day

This is a signature song by Green Day, the band that became the first punk group to win the Grammy’s top award and achieve worldwide fame.

It’s well known that proceeds from this track and other singles were donated to areas affected by the Indian Ocean tsunami.

From the vocals to the performance, everything is incredibly energetic, with a momentum that’s truly overwhelming.
