On Rotation: November 2025

Happy end of November! We can’t believe how fast this year is flying by and that there’s only one month left of 2025. November was an amazing month for listening, so much so that we had over 20 songs to choose from for this article and had to narrow it down to our top 14. Hope you discover a new song from this article.
Let’s get started…
Release Date: October 10, 2025
“bittersweet” was easily our favourite track this month. It’s a stunning song about the complicated emotions of a breakup where hurt and freedom coexist. She captures that duality perfectly with the line, “I know I should be bitter, but baby, right now I’m bittersweet.”
The production is super catchy, and her sweet, honey-toned, light vocals elevate the song into the perfect moving-on anthem. It gave us the same emotional rush as Ariana Grande’s “we can’t be friends.”

Zack Tabudlo is one of our favourite artists, so it’s no surprise he made our monthly round-up again. This track is so catchy from the R&B/lofi-leaning guitar production to Zack’s atmospheric, emotive vocals. The mix is gorgeous too, giving us a hint of Cigarettes After Sex, but make it rock, and infuse it with Zack’s signature touch.
The chorus, “head’s underwater, floatin’ away, tryin’ to reach you, fighting the waves / whatever I do, I do it for you,” is incredibly catchy. Zack consistently delivers some of the most poetic yet realistic lyrics, and this song is no exception.

“HEAVEN” is the closing track on PRYVT’s sophomore album BACK TO REALITY. Though the whole album is a no-skip, we kept replaying this song for its sweet, slower production. Hanuel’s vocals paired with PRYVT’s thoughtful lyricism make this song so beautiful and it’s truly the perfect ending to the album. It’s emotionally rich, sonically warm, and leaves you sitting in your feelings long after it ends.

We’ve had this song on repeat since its release, but this month we truly couldn’t stop listening. We absolutely love country music, and Niall Horan teaming up with Thomas Rhett gave us exactly what we we needed. This track made us want to line dance and soak up the sunshine, or at least imagine it, since it’s cold and snowy right now.
We love the twangy, country-leaning production, the uplifting lyrics, and the way Niall and Thomas’s vocals blend so seamlessly. It’s feel-good, warm, and just an instant mood booster.

Sticking with the country theme, Bailey Zimmerman’s song “Lost” from his new album Different Night Same Rodeo is our favourite track from the album. We didn’t expect The Kid LAROI to be on a country song, but it works so well. The track blends Bailey’s signature style with LAROI’s distinctive sound, and the result is something fresh and addictive.
These two artists mesh beautifully, and we love how naturally their voices and energies come together to make this song work.

“TIME OF IT ALL” is the intro track on LØREN’s latest album THE WAITS. LØREN leans heavily into a nostalgic emo-rock sound, and this song, along with the album as a whole, gives us major My Chemical Romance vibes, and we are absolutely here for it.
“TIME OF IT ALL” is a hyper-rock opener with fast-paced guitar work and punchy drums. Paired with LØREN’s lyricism and his signature emo/grunge style, this track has been stuck in our heads nonstop since its release.

“High Roller” is a groovy, upbeat R&B track infused with funk elements and even a touch of trumpet. Blish is incredibly talented, and this instantly became one of our favourite songs in his entire discography. Paired with SUMIN’s feature and smooth vocals, the track feels effortlessly perfect.
There’s a nostalgic warmth to “High roller” that makes it feel like the soundtrack to a coming-of-age series or a Korean drama, and we couldn’t get enough of it.

“Fallen Superstar” is HOSHI from SEVENTEEN’s solo track that explores the idea of fallen stars finding comfort in each other. The songwriting is beautifully emotional, but what really stands out is the contrast between the lyrics and the production, an upbeat, rock-driven sound layered over themes of struggle, connection, and vulnerability.
That contrast makes the song even more compelling, highlighting both the highs and lows of the “fallen superstar” life in a way that feels cinematic and heartfelt.

“In Other Words” is a gorgeous piano ballad song from Ed Sheeran’s latest album Play (Extended Edition). We’ve loved Ed Sheeran’s music since the “Lego House” era, but this album truly brought us back into that nostalgic love for his sound. It carries the same warmth and sincerity as his older work, and we absolutely adored it.
This track became our favourite on the album because of how sweet and heartfelt it is. It gives us similar vibes to “Supermarket Flowers”, intimate, emotional, and beautifully written. Ed Sheeran just knows how to craft a slow, tender ballad that hits you right in the heart.

“Changes” is a song we’ve had stuck in our heads thanks to its super catchy chorus. Even before we heard the full track, we saw Charlie talking about it on a talk show, and we immediately thought, “wow, he’s truly a musical genius.” His production style and lyricism are always impressive, and this song is no exception. It’s catchy, youthful, and such an easy replay.

Lewis Capaldi is another artist who knows exactly how to pull at our heartstrings, and this song is a perfect example of that. It’s a gorgeous piano ballad where the piano feels light and bouncy, while Lewis’s vocals are rich, dark, and full of emotion. The lyric “’til the day I die, I will dream of you / in a million lives, you’re the one I choose” completely pulled at our heart strings.
It’s a heartbreaking song about grief and loss, yet there’s still a glimmer of hope woven throughout. Lewis delivers that bittersweet balance so beautifully.

The introduction of this song is absolutely beautiful, and overall it has such a calm, peaceful vibe. Even the title sets the tone perfectly where it feels like we’re being surrounded by nature, making it the ideal track to play when we want to wind down.
Ha Hyun Sang’s vocals are stunning, and his lyricism adds so much depth. The song reflects a turning point: leaving behind a familiar, comfortable path and stepping toward growth and freedom. It’s gentle, reflective, and emotionally grounding.

We love a female singer who delivers anthems, and this track is the perfect example. LØLØ describes it as the most “unhinged love song” she’s ever written, exploring a half-dead, emotionally unavailable, chaotic love interest. It’s such a unique and intriguing take on love, and we absolutely adore it.
The girly pop-rock production adds so much energy and charm, and discovering LØLØ through Alex Porat made it even more exciting to find a fresh, new female artist we can support.

“The Giving Tree” is a song that symbolizes determination, life, and heartbreak and it immediately reminded us of the classic book while listening. It’s incredibly catchy, and perfectly showcases BIG Naughty’s signature style: melodic rap, R&B, and soft indie influences paired with emotional, heartfelt lyrics.
We also got to discover Lee Sung Woo (이성우) from NoBrain, and their vocals blend beautifully with BIG Naughty’s, creating a truly memorable collaboration.
