Which one is your favorite? Let me know on Twitter: @HellOnHeelsGirl. Enjoy, my darling followers!

1. ” Sweet Nothing” by Calvin Harris featuring Florence Welch

The vocals and the beat on this track contrast in the best way possible. I love when these two collaborate. If you haven’t been already, you’ll be rocking out to this. Music Video

2. “Every Storm (Runs Out of Rain)” by Gary Allan

The latest single from country singer Gary Allan does not disappoint. Sometimes, we all need to take comfort in the fact that eventually, this too will pass. Lyric Video

3. “Stripper” by The Sohodolls

This sultry, funky song has just the perfect amount of come-hither-ness for a night of fun. It puts me in the perfect mood, and it was featured on one of my favorite tv shows, Gossip Girl! When this song comes on, I am instantly transformed into a burlesque dancer in a smoky, dark club. Who doesn’t love a little escape to the wild side?! (wink, wink) Original Music Video

4. “Kick Out the Epic Motherf*&ker” by Dada Life

Rage on, kids. Dance party your hearts out. Music Video

5. “Springsteen” by Eric Church

In honor of Eric Church’s huge win for ALBUM OF THE YEAR, I present to you arguably my favorite song off the CHIEF album. Shocking, I know. I feel like it was only a matter of time until this song made the Hell On Heels: Now Playing list. Normally, if an album has four or five hits, it’s considered a success. This album has that and so much more. In my opinion, every song on it offers something dynamic and different; it’s a wonderful experience for the listener. Eric Church is a lyrical genius with intoxicating word play. The entire album is pure perfection and this savory song about melodies and memories is no exception. Music Video

Hello, you fabulous followers! Here’s the Now Playing: Second Edition. Enjoy!

1. “Hold On” by Alabama Shakes

It’s mellow and chill. I love it. Music Video

2. “Tornado” by Little Big Town

This punchy country song, fresh off their newly released album, has a great fiery and dark dimension to it. Shows a different side of the band that sang my favorite fun summer anthem “Pontoon.” YouTube

3. “The Lion, The Beast, The Beat” by Grace Potter and the Nocturnals

When this album made it’s mid summer debut, I was thrilled (because I love Grace Potter, obviously) but I wasn’t sure what to expect. She wildly exceeded my expectations, especially with this song. Don’t let the beginning of this song fool you, the ending brings you to a completely different place from where it began. The tempo change just before the midway point in the song is INCREDIBLE. I don’t want to ruin it, so, listen to the song, the lyrics and the tempo change. It’s a fantastic journey. “I’m running wild with the lion, the beast, the beat.” YouTube

4. “Beer Money” by Kip Moore

In honor of Country Music Month, I salute you, Kip Moore. This song has a fun, yet not over the top, vibe. Perfect for when you are en route to crack some fresh cold ones. Music Video

5. “Make Me Wanna Die” by The Pretty Reckless

In case you couldn’t tell, I’m obsessed with Gossip Girl. So, in honor of the premier of the final season (wah!) here is one of my favorite dark, rocker, angry bitch songs sung by little J herself. Music Video

6. “Ghosts ‘n’ Stuff” by Deadmau5 ft. Rob Swire

So, I love techno. This song was on HARDCORE repeat last week, whatever! Such a pump up song and PERFECT for any gym/workout/pregame playlist. YouTube

7. “Lights” by Ellie Goulding

I can’t seem to stop listening to this song for the past few months and I love dancing to it at le bars. So, when you hear this song, grab a drink, and hit the dance floor ;) YouTube
