Eden - CupcakKe

You're probably not ready for this.

Bought to Rot - Laura Jane Grace & the Devouring Mothers

Laura Jane Grace is really all 2018 needs right now.

“Heavyweight Champion of the Year" - Nilüfer Yanya

She's been pushed to her limit, and she's tired. Unfortunately relatable, but such a jam.

“No More" - DeathbyRomy

She's my latest obsession, TBH.

“Night Owl" - Ariana and the Rose

Let's go dancing.

“Bathroom Bitch" - HOLYCHILD

HOLYCHILD's Liz Nistico says, "Women are in control of their sexuality, of their desires, and of their bodies. Bye!" Do you need another reason to love it?

"Oceans" - The Wombats

From the extended version of Beautiful People Will Ruin Your Life.

“Told You So" - Little Mix

They're not going to say it (but, they're totally saying it).

“Voices in My Head" - Ashley Tisdale

Not going to lie, queuing this up next.

"Shade" - Monogem

I now want all rhythm to be set by an orchestra playing pizzicato.

Singular Act I - Sabrina Carpenter

Stay tuned for heavy-hitting conclusion "Diamonds Are Forever."
