Uplifting Western music: Recommended up-tempo tracks (21–30)
MotivationNormani
A song released in August 2019 by Normani, a member of Fifth Harmony.
The music video, said to be inspired by tracks like Beyoncé’s “Crazy in Love” and Britney Spears’s “…Baby One More Time,” is filled with the atmosphere of the late 1990s to early 2000s and is likely to feel nostalgic for many in that generation.
BodyLoud Luxury feat. brando
The song “Body” is super upbeat and feels like it just keeps raising the energy.
If you’re into music, you’ve probably heard it somewhere! I play it when I’m doing cleaning, which I’m not great at (lol).
Doesn’t it feel like a track that gets your body moving naturally? The way it builds is exciting and puts you in a happy mood! Listening to this song might be a nice way to set yourself up for a fun day!
Breake Free (feat. Zedd)Ariana Grande
An electro-pop track with maxed-out energy.
It keeps soaring in the high register and is an absolute hype booster.
Ariana Grande’s smooth, lustrous, and sexy vocals are irresistibly charming.
It lifts the spirits and gives courage to both women and men.
Highly recommended if you want to get pumped up.
Wild ft. Chelcee Grimes, TINI, Jhay CortezJonas Blue
This song is “Wild,” included on Jonas Blue’s first album, Blue, released in 2018 by the UK house DJ.
It’s a collaboration with young singers like TINI, Chelcee Grimes, and Jay Cortez.
The Latin-style beat is super groovy—it makes you want to start dancing right away! Especially the “Na Na Na …” melody in the chorus—it feels like something everyone can sing along to and really get hyped!
Now That I Found YouCarly Rae Jepsen
Singer-songwriter Carly Rae Jepsen skyrocketed to stardom when her 2011 release Call Me Baby became a massive hit.
She’s often thought to be an American singer-songwriter, but she’s actually from Canada.
One of her hit songs, Now That I Found You, is about the beginning of a new romance.
It starts with an electronic arrangement, but once the chorus hits, it takes on a distinctly pop feel.
It’s a very easy listen—highly recommended!
