My personal favorite pick the song “Wonderwall” by Oasis, released in 1995 off the album (What’s the Story) Morning Glory? I recommend this song because this is very influential to me and it reminds me of a time when life wasn’t so bad. There is a lot of gracefulness in this song that I can relate to.
