This EDM bop is all about becoming stronger and breaking free from your comfort zone which is a helpful message when seeking motivation. Grande’s exciting EDM track will boost your energy, especially during a quarantine workout. 

 

Need a chill song?

R.E.M

This is a dreamy, melodic ballad that makes you feel like you’re relaxing on a fluffy cloud of harmonies. R.E.M is perfect to fit a chill, dreamy vibe for when you don’t have a care in the world or you just want to leave reality and doze off into a dream. 

 

Feeling All Lovey-Dovey?

Tattooed Heart

Yours Truly album

If you’re an old soul, this doo-wop inspired track will take you back to a 1954 love story. This lovely, slow song is heartwarming yet upbeat pop at the same time. Although slow songs aren’t for everyone, this is a refreshing break from modern-day sound. 

 

Are you in your feels?

Needy

Thank U, Next album

It’s completely normal to feel alone during quarantine. If you’re feeling “Needy” of someone and their love or attention but don’t have the words to describe how it feels, Grande has the lyrics. The thoughtful lyrics and beautiful strings will prove that everyone feels alone at some point, and it’s okay to be vulnerable.

“Successful” is an ode to feeling confident through your victories in life. This chill, positive song will give you the self-assurance needed to lift your spirits. Grande pats you on the back with her soft, welcoming, upbeat vocals for all of the obstacles you have overcome.

 

Ready to Move On?

Positivity radiates from “No Tears Left to Cry” as Grande’s uplifting vocals put an end to the more somber chapters of your life. This song is sure to help you find closure if you’re looking to move on from whatever may be bothering you.
