Best Songs About The New Year

The new year is right around the corner and to celebrate it, we’ve gathered a bunch of fun songs that will be perfect for any party! From the good old ABBA and Bon Jovi to Katy Perry and “Mariah Carey”, these songs will fill the place with a positive aura of anticipation as the dates turn from 2022 to 2023!
Our top pick for this collection is Kesha’s “Raising Hell”. “The song, like its name suggests, invokes religious language and twists it to relate the message of “raising hell.” The first word, set to the beginning of an electronic beat is “Hallelujah.” In the chorus Kesha sings the titular line, perfectly summing up the message of the song: “I don’t wanna go to heaven without raisin’ hell.” This line is immediately followed by a post-chorus breakdown featuring Big Freedia singing, “drop it down low, hit it, hit the floor with it,” over a party-style beat, mixed with synthetic horns and electronic drum,” The Crimson review said about the song.
