Tuesday Tunes: The 25 best songs of 2025

Listed below are my 25 favorite songs of 2025. Hope you get a chance to listen and enjoy them. Ten of the 25 songs are by bands from Ireland and 20 of the 25 songs are by women or bands with female lead singers.

*Three songs from the list below are tremendous in their advocacy. “True Believer” raises important questions about racism and religious hypocrisy, particularly in the American South, “Lesbian of the Year” celebrates one’s ability to truly be themselves, and “Love of Country” is a remarkable track that decries nationalism across the globe. All three songs remind us of how important music is in championing causes that promote peace, love, and understanding among all residents of the Earth.

Peace!

——-

In conjunction with release of the song “Love of Country,” by the band The Murder Capital, from Dublin, Ireland they released the following statement:

“‘Love Of Country’ is a song about the dark side of patriotism and nationalism, and what they become when they are warped and weaponised. Across the world, we are seeing hatred of ‘other’ spreading like a disease. No claiming of land today is more barbaric than the ongoing genocide of the Palestinian people.

In the face of, and beyond such clear acts of evil, it is more vital than ever to cherish the richness of our diverse communities and the power of human connection. We must stand firm against the rise of nationalist ideologies and speak up for those whose worlds are being torn apart by hatred and violence.

We are, and always will be made stronger by our compassion.”

The band also noted they are donating all funds from sale of a special 7 inch edition of the single (which has sold out) and digital downloads on bandcamp.com to the organization Medical Aid for Palestinians.

Best new albums from the first half of 2025

Listed below are my favorite albums released during the first half of 2025. Each contains excellent indie/alternative music, but thus far Momma’s release stands out above the others. Arriving during the next quarter is the most anticipated new album (for me) in 2025 – Wolf Alice’s new release: The Clearing. If the first two singles area any indication, it will likely be a challenger for the top spot. Stay tuned. Peace!

1. Welcome to My Blue Sky – Momma

2. Billboard Heart – Deep Sea Diver

3. Salt of the Lee EP – Cliffords

4. As I Watch My Life Online – Late Night Drive Home

5. If You Asked For A Picture – Blondshell

6. Happy To Be Here EP – Dexter & The Moonrocks

7. Planet Popstar EP – Wishy

8. Fall Back EP – Florence Road

Ten separate artists are represented on the list with two from Ireland (Cliffords and Florence Road), one from the UK (Wolf Alice), and the rest from the states with such diverse locations as Abilene, Texas (Dexter & the Moonrocks); Carmel, Indiana (Wishy); New York City (Momma, Been Stellar, and Blondshell); El Paso, Texas (Late Night Night Drive Home); and Seattle (Deep Sea Diver).

For the first time in quite awhile, there were no artists from Canada on the list, but there is still half a year to go until the best tracks of the year are announced. The songs listed below are presented in order of preference at the current time. When you get a chance, be sure to check some of them out on Spotify, Apple Music, Bandcamp, YouTube, Pandora, SoundCloud, or wherever you enjoy listening to great music. Peace!
