This is the perfect playlist to make you accidentally slip and fall in your shower (this title sounds weird but let me explain; in more boring terms this is the perfect shower playlist)
I'm among the large group of people that can't sing a lick but that doesn't stop them. But guys, I don't just sing, hell I put on a production. There's lighting, shampoo bottle microphones, and cringeworthy dance moves. A good shower alone is usually enough to wake you up but sometimes you need a little more and that's what this playlist is here for.
(This blog post also doubles as a chance for me to expose my terrible music taste to you, enjoy!)
1. Wannabe- Spice Girls
This song gives you a chance to be versatile and play several different characters. If you want you can choose a particular spice girl for each shower, or you can be all of them in one session. Another added bonus to this one, there are no complicated vocals so you may actually sound decent when performing this one. Plus the opportunities for choreographing a dance are endless.
2. American Girl- Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers
Break out your air guitar for this one. Ladies, this song will make you feel like a badass. Creating a microphone of some sort is critical for this one and if you ever want to see my dance moves I've created for this song don't hesitate. This is the perfect song to listen to is you ever want to pretend like you're in a movie. Also singing well doesn't matter as much for this one, so feel free to dance your little hearts out. Trust.
3. Part of your world - The Little Mermaid
Okay okay don't judge me for this one. Everyone has their favorite Disney song from their childhood and this is mine. Also it's perfect for the shower because you can really become Ariel under the water. This one requires some killer vocals, so warm up those voices. Really make sure you capture all of the hidden teen angst in this song and please don't complain to me if your family yells at you to shut up after you belt this one out.
4. Defying Gravity- Wicked
I just realized that I never talk about this but I'm a sucker for show tunes. And my performance of defying gravity really is Tony worthy, swear. It's taken me two years of shower rehearsal to perfect the end note , but I think I've really got it. This one is gonna take a lot of your energy and you really have to commit. This song is full of emotion so make sure you capture it. This is probably my favorite of the playlist because my family hates it the most and it's fun to attempt to sing so it's a win win
5. It's All Coming Back to me Now - Celine Dion
wow. This song really has it all. This power ballad can be difficult to take on but it will bring up any emotion you've ever had. Remember that date you went on in 6th grade to Graeters with that girl who's parents are friends with your parents? Yeah that's all coming back to you now. Remember the boy your friend made you date because she was dating his best friend and you only dated him for a month because he bought you lots of food? Yeah that's all coming back to you now. The good news is, the shower water will cover up your tears.
Honorable mentions: anything Britney Spears, on my own- les misarables, gold digger- Kanye west, and simple song- the shins, hopelessly devoted to you- Olivia Newton john
Thank me after your next shower for providing you with these quality jams.
