February 2022 - My music favourites

 I've not done a music favourites for a very long time and I used to love sharing my top 5 songs of the month. I've just started a work from home job which has meant that I'm listening to more music/audio again and I want to start sharing what i'm listening to. 

1. George Ezra - Anyone for you

It may come as no surprise to you, if you've been reading my blog for a while or if you follow me on social media that I am a HUGE George Ezra fan. His music is so soothing and also is such a mood boost. It's been 4 years since we last had music from George but he's back and with a really brilliant song. It has that mood boosting quality that makes me want to turn it up on full and dance around the house. It's like sunshine in song form and I love it. I'm very excited to see what his new album holds as I'm sure it's got the usual George Ezra magic! 

2. Otto - Amelia 

I found this song after randomly hearing it on the radio recently and I've been hooked ever since. I've easily listened to it over 50 times because I just adore it. It reminds me a little of the band The Lumineers and I just cannot tell you how much I adore this song. It's light, summery and is just a real feel good track 

3. Bastille - Shut Off The Lights

Admittedly I have not listened to new music from Bastille for a little while, it's not really been for me but this has been on the radio a lot lately and I've been really enjoying it. It has such a good rhythm and I love that it sounds really Bastille-y (I know that sounds a little odd.). It feels like an old friend and it really bought me back to this band and the music they make! If you want a good dance, this is THE SONG!

4. Encanto - We Don't Talk About Bruno

If you haven't heard this yet, where have you been?!?! Encanto came from Disney in the last couple of months and We Don't Talk About Bruno has been in the charts pretty much ever since. Lin Manuel Miranda has made another musical hit and honestly are we surprised anymore? This song is a major ear worm and is frequently being played on Radio 2 and it's amazing! Also I'd love to know who your Madrigal part is for this song, mine is Dolores.

5. Haim - The Steps

There's always got to be a little Haim in the mix and I've been really loving their Women in Pt.3 recently. Haim are one of my go to bands and their music has been with me at key moments in my life. This song has the perfect little sprinkle of nostalgia sounds to it. Their voices are perfection and it's Haim so nothing bad can ever be said about these ladies. 

So there are my five favourite songs of February! I hope to keep sharing these songs with you for a little while longer and I'll also be adding them to a Spotify playlist below! ENJOY!
