Listening to music has helped Selena Gomez settle in to this new normal while she’s social distancing. “This quarantine has given me time to listen to all kinds of music,” she tells Apple Music. “It's weird focusing and working on other things, too, while you're in quarantine. I just find it harder for some reason.” Aside from listening to music, the singer-songwriter and actor has been using the time to go on long walks, follow workout routines on YouTube, and build a home studio to make new music. On this exclusive Apple Music playlist curated by Gomez, she highlights songs from Erykah Badu, M.I.A., Kendrick Lamar, and Charles Bradley—all of which inspired her to find more selections that had a strong storytelling component. “I wish music was like this again,” Gomez says of Bread’s 1972 “Guitar Man,” included here. “Even though it has a certain place in time now, people don't write the way they used to—and this is such a feel-good song.”
