Everyone is counting down the days until summer, this year more than ever. Between the election, COVID-19 pandemic, and many other traumatic historic events, we have high expectations for what next summer will bring. Music is arguably one of the largest parts of everyone’s everyday lives. Therefore, reflecting on last year, “Break My Heart” by Dua Lipa and “Intentions” by Justin Bieber topped the charts.
