Welcome to the third edition of my new music playlist! This playlist includes so many new songs I’ve been waiting for and was a whole lot of fun to make.

  1. “Chlorine” by Twenty One Pilots

I have been waiting for new music from them since my freshman year at Milligan. I am now a senior. This album is amazing and worth the wait.

2. “I’m Still Here” by Sia

Sia has forever been a bop and will forever be a bop. This new single is, of course, a bop.

3. “L.I.F.E.G.O.E.S.O.N.” by Noah and the Whale

A friend recently made me a playlist for a long bus ride, and this song was on it. It has been on repeat since.

4. “Shallow” by Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper

Go see A Star is Born. Cry as hard as you can. Then come home and listen to the soundtrack forever.

5. “Sunflower” by Post Malone and Swae Lee

I love Post Malone, and he released a new song-  of course it’s on here!

6. “Entropy” by The Collection

Another whole album from one of my favorite bands! I think this is my favorite song of the entire album.

7. “Body” by Julia Jacklin

Julia Jacklin appeared in my first column because that was when I discovered her, but she’s released new music since!

8. “Scott Pilgrim V. My Gpa by Mom Jeans.

As I’ve stated before, every playlist needs an emo song. I discovered this group a few weeks back and haven’t stopped listening since.

9. “Midnight Oil” by Tall Heights

Tall Heights is a band I somehow forgot about; I rediscovered them when I went to go see the band Colony House a few weeks ago. Lovely vocals, lovely lyrics, lovely music.

10. “Way It Goes” by Hippo Campus

Hippo Campus is a band that is gaining popularity quickly, and with good reason! They’re a fun little group with fun music.

11. “End of summer (now I know)” by The Front Bottoms

The Front Bottoms just realized a surprise song on Oct. 19, so of course it’s on this playlist. It’s fantastic- and fits the season quite well.

12. “Here Comes” The Change by Kesha

Kesha released a new song and somehow, no one is talking about it. I’m changing that. Go listen to it.

13. “Hymn #101” by The Ballroom Thieves

This is a beautiful and lovely song by a fantastic band. The vocals in this song are off the charts.

14. “Becoming My Own Home” by The Collection

I don’t normally repeat artists on a playlist, but I couldn’t only pick one song from this album! This is my other favorite song. The Collection is amazing.

15. “Interstate Gospel” by Pistol Annies

I am not a country gal, but I love the Pistol Annies. This is Miranda Lambert’s side project, and it is funny and awesome and a group you need to listen to. They just released an EP, with this song included.

16. “Flannel” by The Cardboard Swords

It’s getting to be flannel season, so I had to add this song. With poem-like lyrics, it makes a great fall song.

17. “Pet Cheetah” by Twenty One Pilots  

Yeah, I needed two songs from Twenty One Pilots, too. This is a tune. And one of those songs that uses both headphones in the best way, so make sure to listen with both headphones in.

Hope you enjoy checking out some new music! Below is the link for the Spotify playlist, or just look up Erin Donovan and/or New Music 10/25/18 on Spotify. https://open.spotify.com/user/1239864855/playlist/05ko2h9PDwQUvLlrEU8a4Z?si=1BZDkGj4Q-C2EjUKn3mJLA
