Sun and MoonAnees
With its catchy guitar riffs and powerful vocals, “Sun and Moon” makes a strong impression.
It’s a track released in April 2022 by Annies, a singer-songwriter based in the United States.
Shortly after the original release, a remix version involving Filipino musician Jay Roa was also released.
The song then became a massive hit—especially on TikTok in the Philippines—and achieved a historic milestone as the first by an overseas artist to hold the No.
1 spot on the Billboard Philippines Songs chart for five consecutive weeks.
Angel BabyTroye Sivan
Troy Sivan’s “Angel Baby” gives me the impression of being used often on TikTok in videos sharing happy memories with friends or romantic partners when people want an emotional vibe.
The chorus also conveys the message “I want to live in this moment forever,” so it seems perfect for scenes like giving a gift to a close friend or confessing your feelings to someone you like.
Just playing this song as background music instantly creates a deeply emotional atmosphere, so definitely give it a try.
Fingers CrossedLauren Spencer Smith
A masterpiece notable for its rich, resonant bass, “Fingers Crossed.” It’s a song released in January 2022 by singer-songwriter Lauren Spencer Smith, who began her singing career after American Idol.
Before officially releasing the track, Lauren uploaded a video to her TikTok showing herself listening to the demo.
The video was played over 23 million times, and thanks to that surge in popularity, she decided to release the song officially.
hope ur okOlivia Rodrigo
Olivia Rodrigo’s “hope ur ok,” by the American actress and singer, features lyrics that seem to wish safety and well-being for children who grew up in underprivileged home environments, such as poverty, and its overall vibe carries a tender, wistful emo feel.
On TikTok, the song was often used in videos showing people moved to tears or when sharing sorrowful experiences.
If you’ve had a heart-wrenching, moving moment in your daily life or at work, or if you’re feeling a bit melancholic, give this song a listen.
It’ll likely resonate perfectly with how you’re feeling in that moment!
Hrs & HrsMuni Long
The R&B classic “Hrs & Hrs,” noted for its sultry vocals, is a track released in 2021 by Los Angeles–based R&B singer Muni Long.
Its vividly colored sound world enhances video content, making it a popular choice on TikTok among both everyday users and celebrities.
Although Muni Long has only recently become widely known under her current stage name, she originally performed as Priscilla Renea.
In addition to her work as a singer, she has also contributed as a music producer for artists such as Rihanna, Ariana Grande, and H.E.R.
