LIFE

Ah, Earth Day—the perfect time to soak up the sunshine and breathe in the fresh air. Whether you're picnicking at the park or wading in the waves this April 22, our peppy playlist is sure to make ya smile. Check out these five featured faves and then hit play and relax with the rest of the tracks.

"Here Comes the Sun" by the Beatles

The quintessential sunny day tune, this song is chill, sweet and nostalgic. Fun fact: George Harrison actually wrote this song to welcome spring after a long winter, making it the perfect Earth Day pick!

"Mr. Blue Sky" by Electric Light Orchestra

Throw it back with this classic sun-splashed masterpiece from the legendary ELO. Whether you recognize it from the Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 intro or haven't heard it before, it's an instant happiness booster.

"Cool" by the Jonas Brothers

Slip on your sunnies before streaming for the ultimate, well, cool factor. The second smash single from the newly reunited JoBros is laid-back, chill and so much fun, just like the boys themselves.

"Do You Wanna Do Nothing With Me?" by Lawrence

Filled with jazzy rhythms and infectious energy, this soulful pick from Lawrence features the catchiest chorus *ever*. You'll be bopping along to their signature tune in no time—promise.

"What Makes You Beautiful" by One Direction

No sunny day playlist would be complete without this happy hit! Perfect to sing along to with your besties (we're sure you remember every lyric), it'll have you relaxed and reminiscent of the 2010's in no time.
