Ranking Harry Styles’ Album “Harry’s House”
Like everybody else in the world, I have always loved listening to music. However, I never really listened to entire albums. I grew up in the music streaming phase, so I missed out on the era of going out to the store to buy a new CD for my car. My current vehicle does not even have a CD compartment. Instead, I would add my favorite songs to a Spotify playlist and listen to the songs that the algorithm recommended at the bottom.
Harry Styles is an artist I have been listening to casually for years— since he was in One Direction. Since he won Album of the Year at the Grammy’s, I wanted to check out his latest album as a whole.
Before listening to the album, I thought this would be my ranking based on the titles alone:
- Daylight
- Matilda
- Satellite
- Late Night Talking
- Cinema
- Daydreaming
- As It Was
- Love Of My Life
- Keep Driving
- Boyfriends
- Music For A Sushi Restaurant
- Little Freak
- Grapejuice
After listening to the songs, this is my new ranking:
- Matilda
I can see this song being relatable and healing for many people. It is a vulnerable song that beautifully illustrates how it feels to grow up and make difficult decisions for yourself.
- Little Freak
This song is fantastic to put on in the background for reading or studying sessions. It shows off Harry Styles’s smooth vocals beautifully. It is impossible to listen to this song without singing along.
- Late Night Talking
This upbeat song is one of my favorites by Harry Styles. It is a fun song to listen to while getting ready in the morning since it is so energetic.
- Love Of My Life
Love Of My Life is a lovely song from beginning to end. It starts off strong and engaging and ends with a beautiful piano solo. I think this is a strong song for Harry Styles that shows off his vocal range.
- Satellite
Satellite is an uplifting song that feels freeing and fun.
- As It Was
This song has been everywhere on the radio and all over social media. No matter how many times it comes up, I will not be skipping it. This song feels nostalgic and makes you reflect.
- Daylight
Daylight is not my go-to song to play when I have chores to do. This is a sweet song that beautifully utilizes an instrumental background.
- Boyfriends
I love the acoustic guitar used in Boyfriends. Any song that is story-driven like this one is automatically moved to my playlist.
- Grapejuice
This song is so relaxing, it feels like a warm springtime morning.
- Music For A Sushi Restaurant
This song is fun for a driving playlist. It has a fun, groovy beat and is unlike any other song currently on my playlist.
- Keep Driving
Keep Driving is incredibly calming and smooth.
- Cinema
Cinema belongs in a movie. It is perfect for casual listening and has a funky shift at the end of the song that is very unique.
- Daydreaming
This is a great song to play during a party or a get-together.
Overall I enjoyed this album. Harry Styles has a great voice and is an amazing songwriter. As much as I liked the songs on this album, Falling is still my all time favorite song by Harry Styles.
