A Dramatic Playlist for Leo

Leo, are you ready to roar... er... sing along to this playlist?

We are now entering the dog days of summer! Leo season is here, so let’s celebrate with this carefully cultivated playlist that all the summer fire signs will enjoy! This playlist is not just for Leo sun signs. Lunar Leos and Leo ascendants will enjoy it too.

Soak Up The Sun

Youtube

Written By Sheryl Crow and Jeff Trott and Performed By Sheryl Crow

Leo is ruled by the sun, so naturally we have to include this song in the playlist. This song is all about living in the moment and Leos are masters at that. The ostentatious sign is always ready to rock on, even when surrounded by people who take themselves too seriously. Listen to this song and tell everyone to lighten up. Also, even though Sheryl Crow is a super Aquarius, her north node is in Leo.

Because I’m Awesome

Youtube

Written and Performed By The Dollyrots

I asked my Leo friend what song truly speaks to his Leo-ness, and he immediately sent me this fun, punk-rock song. He told me that he thought the first line of the chorus was “I’m a Leo,” when in reality it says “I’m a leader.” Even if the song does not technically mention Leos, it is still celebrating their world-famous self-confidence. What is more ‘Leo’ than that?

Vogue

Written and performed by Madonna. Co-written by Shep Pettibone.

You’re a superstar! That’s what you are, you know it! If there is one thing that Leos know how to do, it’s strike a pose! This is why they will love this fabulous song by the Queen of Pop herself, Madonna. She must have channeled her Leo energy when she wrote this song!

Walking On Sunshine

Written By Kimberly Rew And Performed By Katrina And The Waves

Leo, you are one of the most flirtatious signs in the Zodiac. (Scorpio would probably fight you for that title.) But the one thing that truly sets you apart from the other coquettish signs is just how absolutely endearing you are when you woo a suitor. This song really speaks to your sweet and playful side.

All Star

Youtube

Written By Greg Camp And Performed By Smash Mouth

The fixed fire sign loves all things glitter and gold! And they are the shooting stars that break the mold. This iconic song has enjoyed a resurgence in popularity thanks to internet memes. The lyrics and catchy tune will inspire Leo’s theatrical nature. Now go forth and get your game on! Go Play!

I Wanna Dance With Somebody

Youtube

Written by George Merrill and Shannon Rubicam. Performed by Whitney Houston.

Even when night falls and the sun begins to fade, Leos shine brighter than ever. The theatrical and energetic fire sign will tear up the dance floor as soon as you start playing this song by the incomparable Leo diva, Whitney Houston.

You’re So Vain

Youtube

Written And Performed By Carly Simon

Okay, so I have to poke a little fun at Leo’s stereotypical vanity. But what is a lion without its pride? Leo, this is your season to shine! So if you want to think this song is about you, you go right ahead. Heck, with your charming personality, maybe every song should be about you. After you hear this song, you will want to walk into a party like you’re walking on a yacht! Also, even though Carly Simon is a Cancer, her Pluto sign is in Leo!

Good As Hell

Youtube

Written And Performed By Lizzo. Co-written by Eric Frederic

You know that old saying, “Lions don’t lose sleep over the opinions of sheep?” This song perfectly embodies that quote, because Lizzo embodies that Leo energy… even though she’s a Taurus. Leo, you are incredibly warm-hearted and loving, and this song can serve as a reminder to love yourself. Your opinion of yourself is the only one that matters.

Little Lion Man

Youtube

Written and performed by Mumford & Sons.

There are a lot of empowering party songs on this playlist. But Leos deserve a couple of poetically introspective songs too. I included this song not only because the song has “Lion” in the title. I also included it because it may encourage the fixed fire sign to examine their inner self. Plus the chorus is fun to scream at the top of your lungs.

All Eyes On Me

Youtube

Written And Performed By Bo Burnam

Warning: Explicit Lyrics 

We are continuing the introspective trend with this addition to the list. Bo Burnam is a Leo! He loves Titanic. He also wrote several amazing comedy specials, and this song is from his latest one. Most of the songs on this playlist reflect Leo’s fearlessness. But this song touches on the intense burn-out that the fiery sign can sometimes feel. This song reminds us that we can take time for ourselves. We do not have to be “on” all of the time.

Roar

Youtube

Written And Performed By Katy Perry. Co-Written By Lukas Gottwald, Max Martin, Bonnie McKee, Henry Walter

Come on, you all knew this song was going to be on this playlist. With the title Roar, I feel like its explanation is almost unnecessary. With lyrics like “Louder than a lion,” and “Dancing through the fire,” I feel like this song describes Leo perfectly. Also, even though Katy Perry is a Scorpio, her Midheaven sign is in Leo.

Applause 

Youtube

Written And Performed By Lady Gaga. Co-written By Paul “DJ White Shadow” Blaire, Dino Zisis, Nick Monson, Martin Bresso, Nicolas Mercier, Julien Arias, William Grigahcine

Leo, when you walk in a room, all the eyes turn towards you. You have a flair for the dramatic and you take up the space that you have so rightfully earned. The fire sign feels most at home on stage or when they are charming or entertaining everyone around you. You feed off of their positive energy, and you radiate your own. Leos truly live for the applause!
