She won the hugely popular UK music audition show The X Factor in 2011, and because she belongs to the same agency as One Direction, she’s often referred to as their “little sister.” Her overwhelming vocal ability has surely blown more than a few people away.

Hayley Williams’s uniquely bright vocals still lift listeners’ spirits.
Both the melody and her voice are upbeat, making for a lively, buoyant song!

It’s a cool track that’s very much in the style of the country band The Band Perry, packed with guitar and violin melodies while still keeping a rock edge.
Even if you don’t know The Band Perry, listening to this song will make you like them.
Somebody To You (feat. Demi Lovato)The Vamps
They became famous for posting cover songs on YouTube, gaining popularity, and making their debut.
Among their tracks, this is the one that really gets the crowd going for The Vamps.
It’s a collaboration with actress and singer Demi Lovato, and since it’s often used as background music on TV, you’ve probably heard it at least once.

The well-known feel-good song by Van Halen.
The repeated riff in this super-famous track is just too cool—no matter how many times you hear it, it gets your heart pumping.
Jump along with guitarist Eddie and keep your spirits high! It’s an eternal classic.
Mr. SpeedKISS
Speaking of KISS, they’re famous for their outlandish makeup and flashy staging, but they’re a band that has consistently played straightforward American rock.
This song is one of those: a quintessential KISS classic, highlighted by the intriguing twin guitar riffs from Ace and Paul.
How We Do (Party)Rita Ora
She is the only artist who achieved three consecutive UK number-one singles in 2012, and the album featuring this song also led her to reach number one in the UK.
