Hello everybody, welcome to the 45th episode of the Wedding Songs Podcast. I am Matt Campbell and today I am going to be talking about the Hot 50 Wedding songs of April 2021. Now what I am doing is going thru all of the charts (Spotify, TikTok, YouTube, etc.) picking out all of the great songs that are being downloaded right now, and comprising those into one great chart. The Hot 50 Wedding Songs, In case you haven’t listened to us before, I go through all of the Top 50 just like a regular chart but unfortunately, I don’t sample any of the songs due to copyright laws. You can listen to the songs on our website MyWeddingSongs.com. Just go to charts then Hot 50 Picks. If you prefer to read the list you can do so on our website as well. If you have any questions about any songs on the list, you can reach out to me on the website. While you're there, make sure you subscribe to our monthly newsletter.

This is our second episode in April so you can expect two more episodes in May. The first one will be all of the Hot New Wedding songs that were released in April 2021, and then doing this list again during the third or fourth week in May. Talking about the HOt 50 Wedding Songs of May. So make sure you tune in for that.
Well without further ado, let’s go ahead and get started with the first song on the list. At number 50 is “Bad Guy” by Billie Eilish released March 29, 2019. If you have the right remix it is great for the party time of the reception, It is a little dreary so I wouldn’t play it at the beginning of the wedding day. At number 49 is the Alternative Rock song “High Hopes” by Panic At The Disco released on May 23, 2018. It is still a popular dance tune that would work as an intro song or one that you could have during party time as well. Talking about getting the party started, at 48 is a classic called “Can't Stop The Feeling” by Justin Timberlake first released May 6, 2016. Yeah, it has already been 5 years but it is still a great party song you could play. At number 47 I really love this as a party song. Since it was released during the pandemic I don’t think it got the justice it deserves. It is “Rain On Me” by Lady Gaga and Ariana Grande, released May 29, 2020. If you are into these guys, and into Pop music, this is a great song to add to the party time of your reception. At number 46 is “Dance Monkey” by Tones And I, released August 8, 2019. This is a great dance tune. If you have the right remix you could mix it right in and bring everybody out on the dance floor.
Number 45 is a current Disco song that you could play. It is “Don’t Start Now” by Dua Lipa, released on August 31, 2019. She continued to plug away songs during the pandemic. I give her a lot of credit for that as she kept an upbeat tempo while releasing songs during that time. She actually has more songs up the chart. Next up, at 44, is “Happy” by Pharell Williams which was released on November 21, 2013. A lot of people are really tired of this song, but I have to say they haven’t heard it in a long time since we haven’t been to many parties. This is one you can have at the beginning of the night to get the mood up. Number 43 is “Memories” by Maroon 5, released September 20, 2019. If you are a big Maroon 5 fan I really like this song to...
