A Spring Playlist to Remind You Of The Blooms and Sunshine

Spring is all around us! The season of pretty blossoms, warmer weather and delicious guavas and strawberries. It is also the time for new beginnings and opportunity.

It is also the time when those pesky allergies take over.

Refresh your senses – and your playlists – with some of these songs that get us looking forward to the sun, the flowers and the great memories ahead!

Here Comes The Sun By The Beatles

We all know that feeling when the sun finally peaks over the chilly mountains, and whisks the cold away. It’s synonymous with Spring: a time of renewal and the promise of something new.

Put Your Records On By Corrine Bailey Rae

The easy, soulful melody is perfect for those relaxed spring or summer days. It also reminds us that just like the flowers in spring, the warmer seasons are the perfect chance to let our relationships bloom.

Angel by FINNEAS

A timeless love song. It is simple in its lyrics and delivery. When you’re in a healthy, happy relationship, you don’t have to be anything more than yourself.

Feel My Rhythm by Red Velvet

Sampling the melody from Johann Sebastian Bach‘s Air on the G String: listening to this song feels like taking a shower in bright sunlight, petals dropping all around you and a light breeze in your hair.

Happy & Sad by Kacey Musgraves

The warmer weather means better opportunities to get that golden hour shot! Coincidentally, Happy & Sad comes from the Golden Hour album.

All Of The Girls You Loved Before by Taylor Swift

We have to brave the winter in order to enjoy the coming spring. All Of The Girls You Loved Before is all about going through the heartbreaks in order to find your real love (and your true self).

Pocketful of Sunshine by Natasha Bedingfield

What (or who) is your pocketful of sunshine?

Somewhere Over The Rainbow by Israel Kamakawiwo’ole

A sweet-sounding hit that speaks of being hopeful for the future, and looking forward to what lies over the rainbow.

Enjoy The Silence by Depeche Mode

Spring is all about soaking in the comfortable weather. Taking a breath to enjoy the sights and sounds of this lively season.

You’re the One That I Want by John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John

While the teenage makeover movie trope has often been about aesthetics and physical beauty. When we take the time to look after ourselves – physically, emotionally, spiritually – we are sure to change for the better.

Everybody Wants To Rule The World by Tears For Fears

While the lyrics are not the cheeriest – it’s such a bop that fits Spring so well!

Spring Day by BTS

There is just something about the warmer weather that makes us nostalgic. This older BTS song is the perfect vehicle to revisit those memories.

On Top Of The World by Imagine Dragons

You cannot help but boogie along as soon as the opening tune and quick sets of clapping start. It will get you springing up for the new season!

Adore You by Harry Styles

Spring is the season of new love. And the season to enjoy the fruits of established relationships. This song is all about confessing what’s on your mind – and in your heart – letting your significant other know you are here for many Springs to come.

Ironic by Alanis Morissette

Because weather in Cape Town is not all black and white.
