Medley of Western Hit Songs

I’ve put together a playlist of international hits from 2016 that were popular around the world.

A lot of these are songs you probably heard over and over throughout the year.

They all have a stylish vibe, so they’re great as background music while you work or as a companion for a drive!

Since it’s packed with popular tracks, it’s also perfect for anyone who wants to get into Western music but isn’t sure where to start.

Titled “I Love You but I Hate You,” this song portrays a man and woman struggling with heartbreak and a complicated relationship.

Even after they break up, their feelings keep missing each other—teetering on the fine line between “love” and “hate”—and Olivia sings it all with a powerful, soaring voice.

This is the theme song of the movie “Suicide Squad,” which became a huge hit in the United States and tells the story of prisoners with unusual powers who end up saving the world.

It perfectly matches the film’s quirky premise, and its suggestive lyrics and low-key background music have been a hot topic.

It’s a very 2016-style, cutting-edge hit in which the chorus has almost no lyrics and shifts into a trance sound.

In the music video, the image of her wearing a flashy bright red dress and singing as if crying out about love is extremely striking.

She, who always sings ultra-positive, super-confident songs, has released yet another bright, confidence-packed track.

The title “Me Too” carries a characteristically American, self-adoring nuance: “If I were you, I’d want to be me too.”

Even on nights when you’re broke but want to have fun, this music alone will get you dancing and make it an amazing night.

After all, that’s what “Cheap Thrill” is all about! The music video, styled like a black-and-white TV show from the ’60s–’70s, is also a joy to watch.

It’s upbeat music that’s perfect for party people who love clubs and parties.

It’d be great as background music for summer events, too.

The title is “Tama ni wa,” and the chorus means “Sometimes I just want to dance and feel good.”
