Valentine’s Day Spotify playlist: Love is in the air!

Sing along with us!

Published

February 13, 2018

Valentine’s Day is right around the corner! Are you feeling the love? For those of you who are lucky enough to have that special someone in your life, it’s definitely a day to look forward to.

The right Valentine’s playlist is essential to set the mood for you and your SO, and the playlist we put together is a celebration of love! Our list here is a combination of high energy tracks that you can sing along to, and some intimate tunes that you can cuddle to.

Lany — ILYSB

We’re starting off our list with a song that put Lany on the map. They’ve come out with a bunch of hits since the release of this one, but nothing screams “love song” like their first hit “ILYSB,” the perfect song that just spells out what you’re feeling.

Maroon 5 ft. Sza — What Lovers Do

Off their Red Pills Blue album, this one is going out to all the newbie lovers out there still figuring out how to play this game of love.

Lauv — I Like Me Better

Isn’t it nice to know you’re with someone that makes you feel like a better person?

Ed Sheeran — Shape of You

You can basically put any Ed Sheeran song into any Valentine’s Day playlist and it’s just going to work. We decided to go with “Shape of You” to keep the upbeat vibe going, and let’s be real: Having someone basically say they love you inside and out is something you’ll never get tired of.

The Weeknd — Earned It

If you want to add some sexy to your Valentine’s Day playlist, a great place to look for inspiration are the soundtracks from the 50 Shades of Gray movie franchise. A series and soundtrack that just oozes sexy, no further explanation needed on this one.

Alina Baraz ft. Khalid — Electric

While some may argue that the original version is much better, we chose to go with the Khalid collaboration for Valentine’s Day. The electricity in the room when there’s that special connection is exactly what you feel when you listen to this one.

Honne — Warm On a Cold Night

Another smooth sexy track that just encourages you to get closer — cuddle weather or not.

Robin Thicke — Lost Without U

When it comes to Valentine’s Day, if there’s no you then there’s no reason to celebrate.

John Legend — PDA

What’s Valentine’s Day without a little PDA? *wink wink*

Bombay Bicycle Club — Always Like This

When things are going good, all you wish is that things will always stay like this.

Stars — Elevator Love Letter

Upbeat and the kind of song that just makes you want to dance or sing along, “Elevator Love Letter” is just one of those great mixtape songs.

Bright Eyes — First Day of My Life

They say real love is nothing like what you see in the movies, but sometimes it happens!

Zac Efron and Zendaya — Rewrite The Stars

Last but certainly not the least, here’s a song from the recently released The Greatest Showman movie. While the song is good, it gets even better once you see it performed in the movie. So, go do that!
