I’m a sucker for most songs that start with a raw guitar chord, but add a few snaps and a gritty, melodic voice, and I’m hooked. My latest obsession riding the wave of social success is Anees‘s “Sun and Moon,” a romantic track that praises the object of his affection as the life-sustaining force that keeps our planet in accord with the solar system. Anees accounts a gargantuan love: “Baby, baby, you’re my sun and moon / Girl, you’re everything between / A lot of pretty faces could waste my time / But you’re my dream girl.” Physicality takes center stage in love songs these days, but Anees’s ballad peels back the layers of love and affection, championing the kind of intimacy that makes “the stars collide,” beckons to be protected, warrants a commitment for life, and makes you feel lucky to have found. —Virginia Lowman
