Taylor Swift and Ed Sheeran have already have several collabs, and they just dropped another one! It’s definitely on the slower side of their songs… I can see it being Ed Sheerans NEXT first dance type of a song. And the video actually picks up after the Everything Has Changed video… the kids from that video are grown up and have gone off to separate colleges but they miss each other! But fun fact, it’s actually the SAME child actors as the Everything Has Changed video!
Ed Sheeran feat. Taylor Swift: The Joker and the Queen

Their album out in April is called WET TENNIS, which sounds odd, but it’s an acronym for “When Everyone Tries to Evolve, Nothing Negative Is Safe.” This is called Original Sin from Sofi Tukker, what do you think?

New music tends to drop on Fridays, so it seems to make sense that we showcase it on Fridays, TOO! So for the very first Friday edition of Traffic Jamz, I went with Anitta- Boys Don’t Cry. It’s REALLY different than the Anitta you’ve heard before, this one definitely has a pop/retro vibe… the synth is DEFINITELY revived, now! Listen to it and tell me if you want it to play more on our station!
Anitta: Boys Don’t Cry

Jena Rose’s Checkmate was inspired by The Queen’s Gambit. Jena realized that relationships could be like chess when she was in a toxic relationship, so this song is about taking your power back! Should we keep it around, or nah?

Another NOT new song, but TikTok is really doing it’s best to give new life to previously unloved songs! Before you knew AJR from their songs “Bang” and “Way Less Sad,” they recorded and released “The Good Part.” And then, four years later, social media dug it up and made it a thing! It’s currently the most used Instagram song in stories, and it’s ALL over TikTok, so a month ago, they decided to make a music video for it, officially giving it new life! Here’s AJR’s not newest, but still most relevant right now song!
AJR: The Good Part

This song is not actually new. The Walters released it in 2014. They were a slightly successful indie band from Chicago until they broke up in 2017. But for some reason, TikTok found this song last year and it BLEW UP in popularity! It went so viral the band decided to get back together and immediately got a recording contract. SO for your NOT NEW new song, it’s The Walters, I Love You So.
The Walters: I Love You So

This song has a familiar vibe to it, you’ll instantly feel like you’ve heard it before. It samples 1970’s “In the Summertime” by Mungo Jerry, and was featured on the Shang Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings soundtrack.

Alesso & Katy Perry: When I’m Gone

I truly love any of the JoBros and their sound lately. I was a bit too young for their first Disney-ish run, but every time we get a new song from them lately, it’s one of my favorites. Now this one isn’t ALL the brothers, just Joe, but I still love it. Thing is, it’s not about what I love, it’s about what YOU love, so what do you think? Keep it or nah?
Joe Jonas: Go It Alone

It’s 4 days until Christmas, so this might play between now and then but it won’t play a lot. So let us know if you love it and we should play it NEXT year, or nah! Ed Sheeran and Elton John planned this song in 2020 to be released in 2022, and yet, here we are a few weeks from 2022 and they released it THIS year instead! What do you think? Share your thoughts in the comments!
Ed Sheeran & Elton John: Merry Christmas

Gayle’s ABCDEFU has the potential to become a breakup ANTHEM for anyone who broke it off with their significant other this year! “F you and your mom and your sister and your job and your broke down car and that stuff you call art.” I mean, who hasn’t wanted to tell someone to eff everything in their life (everything but their dog, anyway.)

Red (Taylor’s Version) has already made ALL of the waves, from her ten-minute version of All Too Well reviving old Swiftie feelings about Taylor’s breakup with Jake Gyllenhaal, to the release of the Starbucks Latte (Taylor’s Version), and a whole short film thing. Needless to say, Taylor is TALKED about! So today we’re Test Driving her song Message in a Bottle (Taylor’s Version).

Ed Sheeran’s = Album is STRONG, with each song he’s released so far rapidly moving up the charts, so this seemed fitting to be the very first song played for a Test Drive! I love the upbeat sound about the nostolgia of an old relationship.
Ed Sheeran: Overpass Graffiti
