It’s that time of year again bitches.
Christmas is over, Hanukkah is over, Pumpkin Spice is over, and it’s the time of year where we put our big furry coats on and go to work at soulless jobs if we’re lucky.
I’ve got six songs to warm up your cold hearts on your way to work or a regrettable hookup with your ex.
1) Rihanna/Britney Spears – S&M Remix
The original song was cheesy af but somehow Britney makes it perfect? Idk why this didn’t result in more mashups but this is your yes it’s freezing but get up, get moving, get your sh*t together jam.
2) Klaus Nomi – The Cold Song
This took a turn.
Famed opera singer Klaus Nomi had a final performance weeks before dying of HIV/AIDS.
It’s wrenching, it’s powerful, and I want to be frozen in an ALCOR chamber when I “die” with this song playing.
3) Queen of Hearts – Shoot the Bullet
Ok we’re back to upbeat!
Not a Top 40 song by any means, but this is a BOP. I want to hear more from her.
4) Azealia Banks – 212
I don’t care what people say, I don’t care how “problematic” it is, I will stan Azealia Banks until the day I “die” (or are lowered into a -196°C chamber).
My goal’s eventually to sing this karaoke in front of horrified onlookers.
This song will get you ready for a fight, a meeting, a gangbang, whatever!
5) St. Vincent – Los Ageless
I’ve lost count of the number of times I’ve blasted this down Sunset Blvd. It’s such a damn good song, and it makes me want a 1970 Cadillac DeVille convertible like Mischa Barton, cigarette in hand. I can just imagine her, headed towards the coast, casting her career worries in the back seat, racing towards summer.
