In honor of so much happening recently in the world of Harry Styles, I’ve curated this list of songs I would die to hear him sing. These don’t really have any particular rhyme or reason to them, but here are some tunes that just give me Harry vibes. Mr. Styles, if you’re reading this, please feel free to steal any of these ideas, but don’t forget to dedicate the performance to yours truly.
- “All night long” by lionel richie
-
Remember when Harry sang “Endless Love” in Carpool Karaoke and absolutely bodied it? Yeah, me too, and I think about it often. I could totally hear him on this other iconic Lionel Richie track next, and I think his band would kill this, too.
- “SISTER GOLDEN HAIR” BY AMERICA
-
I have to admit, this one’s sort of selfish because it’s one of my favorite songs ever, but I feel like it would make for a great Harry cover, too. Who can’t go for a little ’70s soft rock nostalgia? I, for one, would love to hear Harry’s take on the genre.
- “sex on fire” by Kings of leon
-
When I told my roommate I was including this one, she was surprised Harry hasn’t covered it already, and honestly, me too. This one just sort of makes sense for him, and I would love nothing more than to scream my head off to a Harry cover of “Sex on Fire.”
- “FeeLs Like The First Time” by Foreigner
-
I feel like any time I bring up this song this first association that comes to people’s minds is Skylar Astin singing it in Pitch Perfect, but if we could just move past that for a moment and imagine a Harry take on this song? Amazing.
- “Oh! Darling” by the beatles
-
So many Beatles songs just feel right when I think of potential Harry Styles covers. “When I’m Sixty-Four,” “Come Together” and “I Want To Hold Your Hold Your Hand” would all be so good, but “Oh! Darling” has to take the cake on this one for me. I feel like Harry could do any Beatles song, honestly, but maybe it’s just the British.
- “50 Ways to leave your lover” BY Paul Simon
-
This one. This is the one. It’s another selfish pick for me, but I think Harry would sound awesome on this folky rock sound. This song tells such an interesting story with incredible lyrics, so personally, I think it’s a great fit.
- “Kiss Me More” By Doja cat
-
This one I’m not entirely sure would work, but if it did, it would be amazing. I feel like his band would be so good on this song, as well. “Kiss Me More” is already one of the catchiest things I’ve ever heard, so if Harry covered it, it would be impossible to not fall in love with his version, too.
Putting this list together was actually a little hard, not because I struggled with songs Harry would sound great on, but because it was so difficult to narrow them down. I feel like a ton of versatility in terms of the styles of music that he does well with, so there are so many possibilities. Based on the covers we’ve seen Harry do so far, I feel like his appreciation and love for other musicians is really apparent, so I’d love to hear more of the music that’s made him. I hope you enjoyed my list and Harry, you’re welcome for the recommendations!
