Gia Darcy Reveals Her Top 5 Songs That Capture the Feeling of Falling in Love

Exploring the heady spectrum of emotions that come with starting a new relationship, Sydney’s Gia Darcy’s new single ‘Nice Things’ is a prime example of how good pop music can truly nourish. It is a stunning musical vignette that captures the exciting and anxious feelings of falling for someone, and of the “honeymoon phase” of a new relationship– in honour of this, Gia Darcy shares with us 5 songs by other artists which feel, to her, like falling in love!

Songbird- Fleetwood Mac 

I grew up listening to this song, and it’s always been the epitome of a love song for me. Every time I hear it, it makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside. I’ve honestly wanted it to be my wedding song for years!!

Little Did I Know- Julia Michaels 

This song is an anthemic declaration of how special someone is and how amazing they make you feel. Julia Michaels is my favourite artist, and her songwriting skills truly shine in this one! It captures the essence of those unexpected, serendipitous moments in love where you realise just how incredible that special someone is.

Don’t Go Breaking My Heart- Elton John

A classic!  It reminds me so much of ‘Nice Things,’ where the excitement of love is mixed with a little bit of anxiety. It’s very hard to hand over your heart to someone who was once a stranger, and this song captures that delicate balance between vulnerability and joy.

Tenerife Sea- Ed Sheeran

This song had a hold of me from the first moment I heard it at 15 years old. I always hoped that one day I would experience the kind of deep, all-encompassing love Ed Sheeran sings about. The imagery and emotion in his lyrics transport me to a place where love feels pure and unbreakable.

Birds Of A Feather- Billie Eilish

This song is just unbelievably feel-good. When it was released, it stood out as the track on Billie’s album I’d listen to on repeat to instantly make me feel amazing. It’s incredibly catchy melody and heartfelt lyrics capture the joy and excitement of being in love, making every day feel brighter and more beautiful.

Gia Darcy’s latest single, Nice Things is available now, everywhere.
