February has something in the air that makes us feel more hopeful and romantic than ever, and, of course, we need a proper monthly soundtrack that goes along with those feelings! To accomplish our mission, we need an artist who has always conquered our hearts with her verses, and that’s our queen, Sabrina Carpenter! She has written so much about love and the many implications that come with it, and although her streams keep increasing every day, we still think she has some incredible underrated gems that should be highlighted in every Valentine’s Day playlist. Let’s dig deeper into five songs from her discography that deserve a huge shoutout!
‘Honeymoon Fades’
Yep, that’s right. We had to start with ‘Honeymoon Fades.’ How can we not? It’s probably one of the best-kept secrets in her discography! (alongside ‘Skinny Dipping.’ Yes, she is also great; don’t let anyone tell you otherwise). This R&B gem by Sabrina deserves more recognition, and the month of love is the perfect time to give her the proper time to shine. This song defines the honeymoon phase we all go through when we start a relationship and how we want to enjoy the romantic moments after this phase is over. We also have a fun fact about this song for you: she released it on Valentine’s Day back in 2020. How can it not make it into your romantic playlist? Plus, she sounds amazing in this single. We’re obsessed with her vocals in this song! ‘Honeymoon Fades’ will always be that girl for us! 👑
‘Mona Lisa’
We absolutely love it when our favorite songwriters tie together two fun themes to create a masterpiece, and that’s precisely what Sabrina did with ‘Mona Lisa.’ Our favorite blondie combined the feeling of getting closer to a lover and referring to herself as one of the most famous paintings in the world. ‘Mona Lisa’ still sounds so fresh, and it’s perfect if you want to use it in your Instagram stories to let your crush know that something between you two should happen 👀
The wordplay in her verses is so much fun, and it gets us every time we listen to this song! We surely wouldn’t want to leave Sabrina hanging!
“Playing mind games, we don’t do that here
So put your bid in before I disappear
You don’t have to be, don’t have to be a stranger
Come and get a little closer”
Lyrics from ‘Mona Lisa’ by Sabrina Carpenter
‘I Can’t Stop Me (feat. Saweetie)’
We chose a great song from Singular Act I, but Singular Act II doesn’t fall short on bops either! We’re so glad we get to talk about one of our favorite Sabrina tracks ever! ‘I Can’t Stop Me’ shows us a different type of romance we’ve been following with these recommendations. It’s a more empowering and daring side of Sabrina, very similar to what she has shown us with Short n’ Sweet. Our favorite thing about this song is the production: there are so many cool sounds that fit her voice so well, making this track extra addicting! We have to listen to ‘I Can’t Stop Me’ every time we go through Sabrina’s entire discography!
‘Santa Doesn’t Know You Like I Do’
We have been listening to fruitcake on repeat during the Christmas season, but let’s be honest; this festive EP is too solid for it to be shelved once the calendar hits January 1st. That’s why we enjoy it all year long in this hive! We believe that Sabrina’s pen was insane for this project, which focuses on longing for “the one” to magically appear right next to us during Christmas dinner. That’s why we want you to add ‘santa doesn’t know you like i do‘ to your Valentine’s playlist. We love how she added that yearning feeling familiar to the holidays to this song. True romantics know there’s nothing like having your special person in your head 24/7, especially if they are not right beside you.
“I know all of your favorite songs
Pick up each time you call
So why can’t I be the one
To give you everything you want?”
Lyrics from ‘santa doesn’t know you like i do’ by Sabrina Carpenter
‘Don’t Want It Back’
Sabrina has been giving us incredible verses since the beginning of her career, and ‘Don’t Want It Back’ is a true example of that. This track from EVOLution is one of her most romantic songs since its lyrics explain how she feels at ease with her significant other. Who wouldn’t give their entire heart to “the answer to all their fears?” We need this song in her live setlists again ASAP! It deserves to be sung really loudly, just like her tracks from her most recent projects!
“You give me a reason to feel what I feel
When everything is under attack
You got my heart, I don’t want it back”
Lyrics from ‘Don’t Want It Back’ by Sabrina Carpenter
