The February Playlist You’ll Love (And How to Buy Tickets)
The shortest month of the year somehow has the longest list of songs you’re guaranteed to love throughout all of 2025. Have you met your new February playlist essentials? Inspired by the romantic ambiance of Valentine’s Day, empowerment of Black History Month, and continued excitement for a new musical year, you’ll be enthralled by these anthems from every genre. Check out these top songs to add to your February playlist, today:
Bob Dylan – “Make You Feel My Love”
As one of the greatest American songwriters of all time, it can’t be surprising that Bob Dylan tops our February playlist. Especially for a timeless romantic anthem like “Make You Feel My Love.” Commonly referred to as a “21st century standard” that lights a fire in all who listen to it, this track has been covered by over 450 artists including Billy Joel, Sheryl Crow, and Garth Brooks.
However, it was Dylan that made it his own all those decades ago…and you’ll feel the love (pun intended) with this poetic hit from the Pulitzer and Nobel Prize-winning artist. Even better? This track will last you far beyond February, as the Bob Dylan tour dubbed “Rough and Rowdy Ways” is hitting up dozens of US cities in 2025. Get your tickets now!
Kendrick Lamar and The Weeknd – “Pray For Me”
The month of February isn’t just about romantic love…it’s also a celebration of Black History Month and all the brave, talented, and powerful souls who made it possible. Nobody understands this better than Kendrick Lamar and The Weeknd, who teamed up back in 2018 for “Pray For Me,” the hit single from the Black Panther film soundtrack.
This movie has long been praised for its dedication to Black culture, identity, and themes, all of which were supported by Lamar as he produced the Black Panther soundtrack. This song and record will forever be a part of his legacy, with some help from Abel on the aforementioned track to add excitement and a hint of pop culture to your February playlist.
Both of these men are having their moment in the spotlight in 2025, too. Kendrick Lamar is earning headlines for his history-making Super Bowl 2025 halftime show, while planning for the “Grand National Tour” with SZA later this year. Meanwhile, The Weeknd’s “After Hours til Dawn” stadium tour is kicking off around the same time…and tickets would make the perfect late Valentine’s gift for your partner!
Rod Stewart – “Have I Told You Lately”
Sir Rod Stewart and his famously raspy voice are as distinctive as ever in 2025, with the legendary performer continuing his residency at Caesar’s Palace in Las Vegas. Along with stops in cities like Hollywood, FL, Paso Robles, CA, Mansfield, MA, and more! Do you have your tickets yet? He’s planned a stacked setlist with all the breezy romance and blue-eyed soul numbers you could want…including our personal favorite, “Have I Told You Lately.”
Stewart’s rendition of Van Morrison’s classic transforms the spiritual love song into a romantic standard. The warm, celtic-influenced melody paired with Stewart’s raspy delivery creates the perfect slow-dance moment for couples of all ages. And yes, you certainly have permission to dance in the aisles of Caesar’s Palace!
Bask in the glorious, six-decade career of Rod Stewart this year, whether it’s on the couch with your February playlist or in the audience at your favorite venue.
Bruno Mars – “Just The Way You Are”
Bruno Mars is bringing his magnetic showmanship to Las Vegas this spring — and maybe your February playlist, too! Pop music lovers know that he has an entire arsenal of hits, including “Locked Out of Heaven” and “Please Me,” but there’s one that was made for the month of love. Yes, we’re talking about “Just The Way You Are,” his 2010 single that will still fill your soul with butterflies all these years later.
“Just The Way You Are” remains one of the pop genre’s most sincere declarations of unconditional love. With Mars’ soulful voice and retro vibes, which he still manages to display through a modern lens, he has an uncanny ability to make any song timeless. Whether heard through your AirPods or on the stage, your February will be full of Bruno Mars. And we love that for you.
Beyoncé – “Crazy in Love”
While she’s now in her Cowboy Carter era, with the world tour kicking off later this year, Beyoncé will always have a special place in her heart for “Crazy In Love.” Released in 2003, her breakthrough solo single embodies that intoxicating feeling when romance makes you lose all inhibitions. Can you think of anything better for your February playlist?
In this horn-powered anthem, Beyoncé’s vocals alternate between playful and powerful, giving fans a first listen into her musical versatility. The now 43-year-old singer can be vulnerable, confident, and uplifting all at the same time, and it’s perfectly Beyoncé. Our main point?
This fusion of R&B, pop, and hip-hop serves up the same romantic vibes and revolutionary musicianship as it did years ago, and you’ll love having it on repeat this February.
James Taylor – “How Sweet It Is (To Be Loved By You)”
James Taylor continues to bring his beloved catalog to venues across the country in 2025, including his cover of Marvin Gaye’s classic love song. “Sweet Baby James” infuses this Motown hit with his signature folk-rock warmth — his famously soothing voice going to the highest highs and lowest lows as he makes every listener feel like the only person in the world. Is there any greater honor for your February playlist?
Taylor’s gentle, sincere delivery makes this upbeat commemoration of love feel like a personal serenade. And in even better news, his live performances create an intimate atmosphere even in the largest venues, making every love song feel deeply personal. After you add this song to your February playlist, don’t forget to pick up your James Taylor tickets from our site!
Coldplay – “Yellow”
While Coldplay has many love songs in their nearly three-decade catalog, “Yellow” remains their most beloved romantic track. Its simple declaration of devotion and cosmic imagery creates an atmosphere of infinite possibility, all of which is only uplifted by their iconic Coldplay concerts. Speaking of which, did you hear that the British group is continuing the groundbreaking Music of the Spheres World Tour in 2025?
Powered by (no pun intended) eco-friendly initiatives and an out-of-this world celebration of their last two albums — 2021’s Music of the Spheres and 2024’s Moon Music, this Coldplay tour is astronomical in every way. And after you’ve listened to “Yellow” about a million times in February, you’ll be in the mood to commemorate the new era of Coldplay! Grab your tickets at the best prices today.
Oasis – “Don’t Look Back In Anger”
With the band’s highly anticipated reunion tour in 2025, audiences can finally hear Oasis classics live again. While “Wonderwall” might be their most famous love song, “Don’t Look Back In Anger” captures a more mature perspective on love and forgiveness. Its sweeping melody and emotional chorus make it a must-have for couples who understand that love is a journey….
And these themes of growth, understanding, and maturity are simply made for your February playlist. Plus, need we remind you that these Britpop icons are hitting the stage again for the first time in sixteenyears? Don’t miss your chance to see the Gallagher brothers live on the upcoming Oasis reunion tour, with tickets available now.
Megan Moroney – “Tennessee Orange”
The heart wants what it wants. And in this case, it desires the sweet country twang of Megan Moroney! Sure, “Tennessee Orange” is technically a breakup song, but we all know somebody who could use one of those during the month of love. Especially when it empowers them to find their inner strength and pick themselves back up again after being let down by a past lover.
This track cleverly uses college football allegiances, witty puns, and a visual of the signature Tennesee hue to properly mourn the end of a relationship. And there’s a reason why it’s topped the charts for weeks now…Moroney’s biggest song is all-powerful for women everywhere! You can hear it both on your February playlist, and at a venue near you as a part of her upcoming trek.
Melissa Etheridge – “Come to My Window”
Melissa Etheridge is a musician that’s transcended the power of time — with her raspy choruses, epic strumming, and incredible philanthropy going above and beyond. It’s not easy to pick just one song for your February playlist, but “Come to My Window” is a worthy contender. This romantic track has been essential for over three decades now, further proving its place as one of rock’s most passionate declarations of love against all odds.
As intense as it is emotional, this honest number speaks to anyone who has loved deeply enough to overcome the obstacles in their relationship. It’s a track of triumph that stirs up feelings long after Valentine’s Day is over, and especially when you hear the song live on Etheridge’s upcoming tour! Do you have your seats reserved yet?
