All About That BassMeghan Trainor
Meghan Trainor is hugely popular among teenagers.
She sings, “Don’t worry about your body—being chubby is cute,” and her catchy pop melodies and cute looks made her a massive hit.
However, there’s also a behind-the-scenes story that she drew criticism later when she tried to go on a diet.
Last HurrahBebe Rexha
An anthem of self-liberation delivered by American artist Bebe Rexha.
While depicting the feeling of being unable to resist temptation, it powerfully sings of resolve for tomorrow.
With its energetic beat and catchy melody, this track is sure to ignite the dance floor.
Released in February 2019, it also broke into the Top 40 on the Billboard charts.
Recommended for those who want to change themselves but find it hard to do so right away, this song offers the courage to take the first step toward self-transformation alongside upbeat pop sounds.
Work B**chBritney Spears
When it comes to Britney Spears, many of her songs are quite provocative, and this one is no exception.
Still, perhaps thanks to her beautiful and delicate vocals, it’s curious how it doesn’t come across as extreme despite the lyrics.
The fact that she has remained just as beautiful since her debut might be another reason people find her so captivating.
SouthboundCarrie Underwood
In 2019, with country music trending across various scenes, there’s been a return to classic rock sounds.
That said, Carrie Underwood is essentially an idol-like figure over there.
Since she started out as a country singer-songwriter when she debuted, should we see this as a return to her roots? It’s upbeat and feels like it could give you energy! How about listening to it as background music while taking a walk outside when you’re feeling a bit down? I think it’ll help refresh your mood.

Originally created as a track for the soundtrack of an Ice Cube movie, the number was later included on Lizzo’s own studio album and became a hit.
In 2018, it was re-released as a remix featuring Ariana Grande.
With its lyrics that can be called a celebration of women and the stunning vocals of the two divas, listening to it will give you the courage to step onto a new path.
