This song is like being washed over by a warm river - or, indeed, like a flashback, or like a dream, or all the things you can fit inside a memory. You have to admit though, Kelis kills that “bounce” bit. He said he was done singing entirely, but thank goodness he got over that one. This was actually Harris’ first single to feature vocals other than his own. Look, Kelis is cool and everything, but this song is all about that dope synth melody, which could play on a loop for 20 minutes straight without getting annoying.
You don’t see that woman coming at you like a freight train, but once she hits, any rainy Tuesday 2 p.m.
The bridge is just as fun to sing along to as the chorus, and that chorus is a real whopper. As the title-track to Harris’ 2009 LP, it’s a dose of instant nostalgia, and I can never get enough. Calvin Harris – “Ready For The Weekend”Īnytime someone tries to say this isn’t one of the best damn Calvin Harris songs they’ve ever heard, it’s fighting words. It’s romantic, but it’s also quite edgy, and it somehow makes all that potential for overwhelming cheese disappear.ġ6. This song is especially fun because it’s equally as hard as it is soft. It’s nice to hear a man as beautiful as Harris being emotionally vulnerable, anyway. Harris totally flips the house vocal script on this one. It’s recognizable and familiar, but it’s not formulaic, and that’s not an easy thing to do.ġ7. It’s a great breakup song, and definitely one of the best cuts from Motion. Those strings are empowering and beautiful, a wonderful balance against the hard, electronic drop. Ellie Goulding is angelic and emotional, yet so strong. It’s from the music maker’s fifth studio album, Funk Wav Bounces Vol. This is a sepia-toned, gold and glittery wave for turning lights down low and drinking brown liquor over ice. The Scottish producer gets on an old-school disco soul groove with “Location” star-in-the-making Khalid and bonafide living legend Future.
Harris wasn’t even such a megahunk when this song came out, so he must’ve had no idea how right he’d end up being.ġ9. These filtered synths are everything that made the late 2000s an awesome time to be alive. Kinda like those songs where people list off cities as a way of ensuring those cities love the song forever, here Harris appeals to every girl on the planet, and none of us are immune to its charms.
