January’s been an interesting month for me when it comes to music discovery because what happened was I was barely discovering any songs for most of the month, then in the last week or so I started finding for a bunch. If you wanna know what I’ve been listening to for the past month, then read on.

The Beatles: Rubber Soul (1965) Songs Ranked
Rubber Soul, at the time of its release, was the first Beatles album to truly push the musical boundaries of its time. This is often considered to be the record that set the stage for Revolver, which set the stage for Sgt. Pepper, which is pretty definitively heralded as a psychedelic masterpiece. There are plenty of gems in this tracklist, so I’m excited to discuss these songs.
December 2020: Music Recap
I discovered a lot more songs this month than I usually do, and a lot of great songs at that. As you’ll see, I’ve been getting a lot more into the music of the Arctic Monkeys this month, and maybe you’ll see some albums for them in the future. Now without further ado, let’s getContinue reading “December 2020: Music Recap”
Christmas Time Playlist II
I’m not sure if I’m gonna make this a yearly series where I just make a short Christmas playlist every year, but since I did one last year and had more songs that I wanted to include, I’m making a sequel to the Christmas Time playlist! If you’re looking to jam out to some holiday tunes, I’ve got you covered!
Ariana Grande: Sweetener (2018) Songs Ranked
Sweetener is without a doubt Ariana Grande’s most and least popular album. At the time that it came out, reception was very mixed, with some people claiming it was a fresh, emotional piece of work and some claiming it was a disjointed, weird project. Nowadays, I think people are starting to appreciate this album for what it is, which makes me happy because I do in fact love Sweetener. It’s either my favorite or second favorite of her albums. I love it’s emotional vulnerability (which was lacking on her previous albums) and unique vocal/production style, and the album’s message (which we’ll get into later) is one that really resonates with me.
November 2020: Music Recap
November has been a weird month for me musically, because it felt like I wasn’t naturally discovering songs the way I used to. This month I had to actually go out and look for new music, which made the process of finding new songs a little bit more difficult than it usually is. However, I’veContinue reading “November 2020: Music Recap”
Ariana Grande: Dangerous Woman (2016) Songs Ranked
Dangerous Woman is Ariana Grande’s third studio album, and it’s one that is very up and down for me. This album, in my opinion, contains some of her very best songs as well as some of her worst. However, looking at it as a whole, I definitely appreciate it for the mature, moody collection of songs that it is.
The Beatles: A Hard Day’s Night (1964) Songs Ranked
A Hard Day’s Night, while lacking in the bursting enthusiasm and energy of The Beatles’ first two records (in my opinion) is still a fine collection of songs. There’s lots of personality in the music and it feels like the boys were just having fun with these songs. So while it’s not one of my absolute favorite Beatles record, I still have tons of respect for it. (Also I haven’t yet watched the movie that goes along with this album but I really want to, and I feel like it may change my perspective on the album but oh well.)
ONE YEAR OF ANNA’S MUSIC WORLD!
Basically, a year ago today I was going through this notebook that I have where I used to write down my thoughts on the music that I was always listening to. Stuff like listing my top three songs from various albums, and writing down playlist ideas. Eventually, on a Friday night, November 8, 2019 I decided to create a blog to share these things with the world.
September 2020: Music Recap
It’s been yet another month filled with some great song discoveries, so here I’ll be listing all the songs I’ve started listening to over the past month! Also, for those who may care, this past month I sort of got back into my musical theatre phase (I was really into it a couple years ago then randomly fell out of it) so you can expect some reviews of musical soundtracks in the future! Now without further ado, let’s get into the September Music Recap!
