10 Emotera Songs You Can Play To Pretend You're In Some Music Video This Rainy Season
It’s that time of the year again when jackets and raincoats and umbrellas are in, and raindrops sound like melodies of good times long gone and rhythms of hope for better ones.
If you’re like me and you loath summer then the rainy weather recently has been lifting up your mood as well. Commuting and travelling the metro, however, will surely be a pain so we thought of collating pop songs that could uplift, or commiserate with your mood, whatever you’re up for.
Siberia
Let indieband “Ang Bandang Shirley” serenade you into remembering the heartaches and the hope for a love that would eased the pain. Siberia tells a story of going after who you love amidst uncertainty and the knowing that happiness is always within reach.
Tadhana
This one should be a staple in any of your playlist. Yes, that’s how good of a song I think Up Dharma Down’s Tadhana is. Give it a listen and you’ll understand what makes it a classic.
Read All About It (Pt. III)
This Emeli Sande’s song are epiphanies wrapped in beautiful notes. A little melancholic, Read All About It evokes strength in times of fear and doubts.
Lost Stars
Keira Knightley was a soulful discovery in the movie Begin Again. In her version of Lost Stars, with voice that encapsulates vulnerability, we were led down in a journey of self-discovery.
Falling in Love at a Coffee Shop
Listen to the intro of this Landon Pigg masterpiece that you’ll agree with me that this is indeed perfect for a day filled with introspection and cool weather.
June
In usual UDD’s poetic lyrics, June is one of those songs that would suit your mood while staring at the rain outside your window.
Gravity
Perhaps one of Sara Bareilles most heartbreaking songs, Gravity can take us to a time when love stopped making us smile.
The next three songs are a little summer-y but play them if you’re in the mood for something light.
Over the Moon
This saccharine song by Rosie Thomas with summer beats is something you can play if you adore the rain as much as I do. It may be a little upbeat for you, but it’s definitely a song that can put you in a good mood.
Sooner
Yes, Andrew Allen is one of those singers that make you believe in how fun it is to be in love and how amazing it is to hope for possibilities. Include Sooner in your playlist and smile.
Feels So Right
From the title of the song alone, you might have gauged that this is another feel-good song and you’re right. Let Matt Wertz make you feel the giddiness of love and all its other fun emotions.
Prepare your hot chocolate. Find a comfortable place in the house (yes, the one close to a window). Grab a pillow. Hit that play button and go be dramatic while no one's watching.
