December 22, 2020
It's time to say goodbye to an unprecedented year. This month, we asked our Mass Mix contributors to choose their favorite songs released in 2020. Many gravitated toward tunes filled with energy, ethereal sounds, melancholy, comfort, and anger. Here's what they said.
Alaina Ray, âI Thinkâ
One of the more notable songs this year was from local newcomer pop artist Alaina Ray. Following two other stellar singles as an introduction, she capped off the year with a final release called âI Think.â The song balances a unique juxtaposition of melancholy lyrics while presented within a light-hearted feel-good sound. With its catchy hook, slick production, relatable lyrics, and a captivating voice which would capture any music fanâs attention, Ray not only made a large splash into the local music world, but with songs as good as this who knows how long sheâll remain âlocalâ at all. -
