Letter ‘C’ || ABC Music Challenge

Contemporary

Call Me Baby – EXO

As you all know, I am a rather hardcore EXO fan ❤ , so the fact that an EXO song is up here, should be of no surprise to any of you. But I genuinely like this song, not because I’m biased towards EXO songs, but because this song is seriously, the best, in my opinion. If you guys have never heard this song before, I don’t even know what to say anymore.

C’est La Vie – Khaled

I learnt this song from my friend, which was actually really surprising since we have really different music tastes, but I actually really like this song. I don’t really know what to say, since I’m so bad at describing stuff, but seriously, you guys have to listen to this song.

Cold Water – Major Lazer feat. Justin Bieber and MØ

I know that not everyone likes Justin Bieber, but you can’t deny that he has talent. And recently, his music has been sounding better and better. This is was one of the I-heard-this-on-the-radio-and-it-sounds-nice songs, but slowly, it became one of my favourites. And now I’ve listened to this, billions of times. You all have probably heard this on the radio by now, but if you haven’t, give it a chance, You won’t regret it.

Soundtrack / Instrumental

Cat Bus – Joe Hisaishi (My Neighbour Totoro)

This is one of my childhood songs growing up. It’s from the Studio Ghibli film My Neighbour Totoro and I love it (the movie and the song) to bits. And I know this is a music challenge, but if you haven’t watched Totoro, I don’t know what you’ve been doing with your sad life, but go and watch it, RIGHT NOW!

Baroque / Classical / Romantic

Les Chérubins – François Couperin

Les Chérubins means The Cherubim, which is why it is under C, instead of L. This was recommended by my sister, and psychologically, I don’t like it because it reminds me of when my sister used to play the piano for hours on end, and I didn’t have a peaceful minute for ages, but in terms of the music, it is rather good? (Sorry everyone, my vocabulary isn’t advanced enough 😉 )

Clair de Lune – Claude Debussy

For anyone who’s watched a specific anime, *cough Your Lie in April *cough, you should know just how amazing this song is. It’s really relaxing, so if you’re studying, or really stressed, chill out and listen to this song, and go and watch Your Lie in April while you’re at it.
