My Summer Playlist

I have been obsessed with music lately (more than I normally am) and have created a playlist for summertime with my favorite new and old summer songs. 

Here they are:

1. John Mayer- XO (cover of Beyonce)

I love the original by Beyonce, however I am a country girl at heart and love the tone of the cover John Mayer did of this song. 

2. Lana Del Rey- Summertime Sadness

A classic for summer

3. Ed Sheeral- Sing

One of my favorite songs of the moment (although the music video is extremely strange), but it's one of those songs that are addicting to listen to. 

4&5. Ellie Goulding- Explosions & Dead in the Water 

Both of these songs were featured in movies and have become widely popular since the album's debut in 2012. Explosions is the perfect summer song, and Dead in the Water is a more calm song that is great to relax to.

6. Imagine Dragons- Working Man

Imagine Dragons is probably my favorite band because each of their songs is so different from one another. This song is a fast paced, upbeat song that is great for driving around with the windows open. 

7. Tim McGraw- Live Like You Were Dying

Probably my favorite song of all time and a classic. (Plus its Tim McGraw, how can you not love him!)

8. Lana Del Rey- Young and Beautiful

One of my favorite songs from one of my favorite movies. The scene that this song plays in my favorite scene from the movie and makes me just crave summer all year round. (Can I just marry Gatsby?)
