30 Songs That You Should Know

Music is beautiful. It connects with us in a way that no other art form can. It evokes emotion through its rhythms and melodies. It draws us in, and sometimes we find ourselves unable to escape.

Occasionally, I find a song so beautiful that I cannot bring myself to stop listening to it. I play the song time and time again, and if it is truly good, I will not tire of it. As time passes, these occasions build up to become a long list of songs. 

Right now, there are 25 songs that I am absolutely in love with. Many of them have been out for a good while, others were more recently released. Here they are:
