47 Albums That Made 2019 Seem Almost Bearable

"Maren Morris's sophomore album was definitely worth the three-year wait. Girl does an incredible job showcasing Morris's growth and maturity, both musically and in the singer's personal life. The title track has become a go-to whenever I need a pick-me-up, and her single 'The Bones' is just as uplifting. Songs like 'Make Out With Me' and 'RSVP' might seem like a far cry from Morris's debut album, Hero, but hey — your girl has grown up." — Britt Stephens, content director
