Celebratin' with Allen Stone

If you're having a rough day or even week, you can kick start your weekend by listening to some Allen Stone to make you feel a little better. More specifically, you should listen to his song Celebrate Tonight to get your mood lifted up a bit.  Allen Stone is a really cool, self described "hippie with soul" singer/songwriter and his soulfulness is present in basically every single one of his songs, so I'd say he describes himself pretty well. Celebrate Tonight has a mellow, old school sounding feel to it, which is a nice change from your typical "today's hits." The best way I can describe his overall music is that it is simply and literally chill. It'll just put you in a nice, relaxed mood, I guarantee. So kick, back, relax, and "celebrate tonight."

Sam Smith

It's basically a known fact that Sam Smith has the voice of an angel. After first hearing his single Stay With Me, I had very high expectations for the rest of his album, and he most definitely did not disappoint. The album is full of heart-wrenching, soulful, beautifully belted out songs that you can't help but love. One of my favorites, aside from the very popular Stay With Me, (which you just can't help but like no matter how often it plays on the radio) is his song I'm Not The Only One, which is becoming more popular with the newly released version featuring A$AP Rocky (which is pretty cool sounding as well). It was hard to pick just one of his songs to share with you because to me, they are all equally as good, mainly just because his voice is so amazing; however, this song just stood out to me a little more when I first listened to the album as a whole. Listen to this song, and then go on and listen to the entirety of the album. I guarantee you won't regret it.
