So you may (or may not) have heard of the line - music is love, music is life. I have come to realize in these previous months about the absolute truth of the above statement.
Pirates like me primarily listen to songs on YouTube, Saavn (the Indian version of Spotify), and many other sites. But that is a post for another day. Here are the songs that I listen to whenever I am free. Please note that the order I have listed the songs in are no indication of the preference I may have for them. That is for me to know, and you to figure out. This playlist contains primarily Hindi and English songs. 1) Panda - Desiigner (A guilty pleasure of mine - you don't need to understand the lyrics of this one to appreciate it). 2) 7 Years - Lukas Graham (Bloody amazing song - really hits you in the feels). 3) Aaja - Nucleya (Nucleya is an Indian DJ, who became mainstream after this song - listen to it for the unique base). 4) Agar Tum Saath Ho - Tamasha - Alka Yagnik, Arijit Singh (Again, a song that plucks your heartstrings with ease - and it is even better if you have watched the movie, like me). 5) Be The One - Dua Lipa (Effortless and meaningful singing in this one). 6) Bohemian Rhapsody - Queen (Classic, this one). 7) Bonbon - Era Istrefi (Don't understand a word in this one, but I wish I did). 8) Boom Clap - Charli XCX (Sounded amazing when I first heard it in the movie "The Fault In Our Stars). 9) Chitta Ve - Udta Punjab - Babu Haabi, Shahid Mallya, Bhanu Pratap (Fuck. No words for how utterly POWERFUL this song is). 10) Comfortably Numb, Wish You Were Here - Pink Floyd (Classics, both of them - my friend says they sound even better when you are high. Now, I can't verify that one, but, what I can verify, is the fact that these songs are utterly MAGNIFICENT). 11) Control - Matrix, Futurebound (Amazing bass, and sounds. The singer also rocks). 12) Dark Paradise, Summertime Sadness, High By The Beach, Young and Beautiful - Lana Del Rey (Man. Is this women an alien or what? She sings so effortlessly, and the lyrics are, well, fantastic. Side note - she is also bloody beautiful. She is seriously too good to be true. Thank you, Lana, for gracing us mere mortals with your presence. In case you didn't gather, my crush for life is Lana. Sigh). 13) Digital Love - Daft Punk (Haven't really listened to many of their songs, but this one is GOOOOOOD. Like really good). 14) Don't Let Me Down - The Chainsmokers ft. Daya (Man. Although this song's lyrics are, well, the most generic I have ever heard, and the bass leaves much to be desired, and the video sucks, I still love it. Mostly due to Daya). 15) Faded, Sing Me To Sleep - Alan Walker ft. Iselin Solheim (These are two of those type of songs that you can never get tired of listening to). 16) Fursat - Arjun Kanungo (This is another one of the songs that most people can't decide to love or hate. I belong to the former category). 17) Hotel California, New Kid In Town - The Eagles (Both of them can be listened to over and over again. They are THAT good). 18) Hymn for the Weekend, Paradise - Coldplay (Coldplay is one of the best bands ever. These two songs exemplify the fact). 19) Crossfire - Stephen (FUCKKKKKK. >.< No words for how freaking amazing this song is. Hooked from the get-go). 20) I Took A Pill In Ibiza (SeeB Remix) - Mike Posner ft. Seeb (Although the original is slow af, the remix is amazing. Listen to the original, if you want to, to hear the contrast between the original and the remix). 21) Lost Boy - Ruth B (Just listening to this song can send me to heaven and beyond). 22) Radioactive, Demons, In Time - Imagine Dragons (Mark my words - songs like these will be called classic in the future). 23) Space Bound, Not Afraid, Lose Yourself, Love The Way You Lie, Rap God, When I'm Gone, Berzerk, The Monster - Eminem (THIS. MAN. IS. LEGEND. PERIOD). 24) Stay, Raging, Firestone - Kygo (All of these songs rock. End of story). 25) Stressed Out - twenty one pilots (I seriously don't understand why so many people don't like this one. The lyrics are epic. The song is epic. What's not to like?) 26) Never Be Alone, Stiches - Shawn Mendes (Man. This guy really puts his soul into his songs, and it shows). 27) Superheroes, Hall of Fame - The Script (The videos of these songs have even made me cry, once or twice. Yes, I'm man enough to admit that). 28) The Reason - Hoobastank (Surprisingly good, and utterly spell-bounding). 29) Hey Soul Sister - Train (The chords are well, inimitable, as is the song). 30) You're Beautiful - James Blunt (Although the music video is utterly senseless, the song itself is worthy of admiration). 31) Baby You're A Rich Man, Don't Let Me Down - The Beatles (On listening to these songs, you can understand why the band was such a big deal in the 60s and beyond). 32) Kashmir, Jammu, Bazar - KSHMR (One of the best DJs and producers I have ever listened to). 33) Hello - Lionel Richie (Although the video is creepy af, the song is worth a shot - it sticks in your mind long after you've heard it). 34) Addicted To You, I Could Be The One, Waiting For Love, The Nights, Wake Me Up, Hey Brother, You Make Me - Avicii (This guy is epic. His songs are also epic, and it is hard NOT to love them). 35) Zinda - Lootera - Amit Trivedi(A song with a LOT of soul). Whew. That's it for today.

About me
My name is Siddhartha, and I am a fourth year undergrad CS student from India. I am pro-logic, but like to expand my worldview by reading about differing perspectives. I fancy myself as a music aficionado, and I devour books (when my enthusiasm trumps my lethargy). I also like blogging, and sharing my viewpoints and interests in people, which is a big part of why I have this blog. Archives
