“Born This Way” by Lady Gaga was first released as a single in 2011 and is the title track for the album of the same name. The instrumental has a nice violin in the background but has an overall feeling like you’re taking a ride on a boat with the wind blowing in your hair. In “How to disappear,” Del Rey mentions a man by the name of Joe throughout the song and explains how she has mixed romantic feelings about him and is frustrated that he can’t express his own. “How to disappear” is from Lana Del Rey’s 2019 album “Norman Fucking Rockwell.” I have been a fan of Del Rey since her album “Ultraviolence,” and both albums have a similar sound. She sings about an ex that she had a fairly public relationship with and is realizing that once she deletes the post of them together, people will know they’re over. “In The Kitchen” is the second single from Reneé Rapp, who also stars in the HBO Max show “Sex Life of College Girls.” The song is a soft piano ballad, but Rapp’s deep and powerful vocals really capture the heartbreak and pain that she is describing. The instrumental is beautiful with the groovy but soft guitar chords, and lead singer Ben Schneider’s husky vocals match well with Ponthier’s velvety voice. With the addition of Ponthier, you get to hear the wife’s point of view as she says that she wasn’t truthful in the marriage either.

Lord Huron is famously known for their song “The Night We Met.” If you liked that song, then you are guaranteed to enjoy “I Lied.” This single tells the story of a man telling his wife that he hasn’t kept his promises and has decided to leave her. Lord Huron, Allison Ponthier – “I Lied (with Allison Ponthier)”.
