Western songs to listen to in winter: soul-stirring winter songs (21–30)

White ChristmasKaty Perry

This is a masterpiece by Katy Perry, whose catchy vocals and pop-savvy sound create an overwhelmingly distinctive style.

She has an image that suits the winter season, and the theme fits snowy days as well, crafting a smooth atmosphere that lifts the mood with a pleasantly polished finish.

Sweet but PsychoAva Max

Ava Max’s hit song “Sweet but Psycho.” Released in 2018, this track is crafted as stylish dance-pop.

It’s not specifically a Christmas or winter-themed song, but I think its melody is perfect for driving on a winter night.

The lyrics are quite unusual, portraying a psychopathic woman cautioning herself about her crazy love life (lol).

Definitely give it a listen!

MistletoeJustin Bieber

Justin Bieber’s classic song “Mistletoe,” released in 2011.

These days, perhaps because he incorporates hip-hop and other styles, Justin Bieber gives off a slightly bad-boy vibe, but back then—partly due to his age—he still had a cute, boyish charm.

The track features striking sleigh-bell sounds that make it perfect for winter.

With its languid, wistful melody, it’s recommended for those who want to spend a relaxed Christmas with their significant other.

She has won the Grammy Award four times.

This track was released in 1981, reached No.

2 on the U.S.

charts, and won a Grammy.

So SickNe-Yo

Ne-Yo’s classic hit “So Sick.” Released in 2006, this song is the epitome of mainstream R&B, and it reached No.

1 on the Billboard Hot 100 not only in the United States but also in the United Kingdom.

The definition of R&B became blurry from the late 2010s, but R&B from this era has such wonderful consistency across songs.

While it’s not explicitly a winter-themed track, the music video was shot in snowy mountains, so I think Ne-Yo himself had winter in mind.

Boo’d UpElla Mai

The stylish, smooth sound is the very essence of R&B! With outstanding vocals, Ella Mai brings an urban vibe.

Dreamy in theme and hugely popular with teens, this track delivers an uplifting message that encourages those dealing with heartbreak.

Christmas Must Be Something MoreTaylor Swift

Taylor Swift’s early warm Christmas song.

At Christmas, people sing carols, exchange presents, and there are fun events lined up one after another.

In the song she asks, “What if there aren’t any fun events? What if no miracle happens?” But since Christmas is Christ’s birthday, something good is bound to happen.

You can see that Christmas is an important event for people in the West.
