- Sweet on the surface, clear-eyed underneath. Gianna Alesia’s“It’s Only Heaven” cuts through pretty lines in search of real connection.
- Chosen family, late-night rides, and a voice that feels like home — Every Us’ “B-Train” is quietly perfect.
- Love and friendship don’t always coexist peacefully. Liz Cooper’s “Sorry (That I Love You)” is a raw, late-night confession that slowly becomes an act of self-preservation.
- A gentle reminder that real love doesn’t fade with distance — New Constellations’ “Secret Safe” holds it close.
- Being stuck in involuntary single-hood isn’t romantic—but it can be clarifying. Violent Vickie’s darkwave track “Open the Door” turns frustration into resolve.
- Cool vocals, hazy guitars, and post-punk allure — The Bernadette Maries’ “The Closer You Look” draws you in.
- Going home for the holidays isn’t always easy. Sydney Ross Mitchell’s “Queen of Homecoming” captures that uneasy return — when family expectations clash with the person you’ve become.
