Top 5 Songs for June 2026

Music: it’s the window of our souls, and these songs hit me on a personal level. Maybe one of these you can relate to as well!

  1. Shallow by Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper

This song was released in 2018 and was featured in the movie “A Star is Born” that featured Lady Gaga and Bradly Cooper. I love this song because it shows the vulnerability of how relationships can be, and that anyone can find love. 

  1. Fight Song by  Rachel Platten 

This song was released in 2015 by Rachel Platten. This song hits differently for me because I was in a bad situation a few years ago, and now that I am free from it, I feel like this song expresses that fight, and I think it could help anyone who is in a bad situation.

  1. Dear Father by Sum 41 

This song was released in 2007 and sung by the band Sum 41, and the first time I heard it, I felt it was about me and my personal relationship with my own father. It is a sad song, but when you can feel a song that much, that’s when you know it’s a good one. 

  1. Breakin by Halestorm ft Amy Lee

This song is sung by Halestorm and features Amy Lee in one version of the song. It came out in 2012, and when I heard it, I instantly thought of my significant other. Good love songs are hard to find, and this one is great.

  1. Sound of Silence by Disturbed

This song was sung by Disturbed and was released in 2015. I first heard this song in concert, and I thought it was so cool that they turned off all the lights, and you could see people waving lighters. If you want a song that will hit you in the feels, this song is it.
