In celebration of her ‘Loveland’ album release, ethereal indie rock songstress Suki Waterhouse sat down with Teen Vogue to discuss the songs that shaped her life. With her perfect shag and vintage style, you’d expect to hear “You Don’t Own Me” by Leslie Gore on the Playlist of My Life series but Sisqó and Lil Jon? Color us surprised (and impressed.)
Looking back on her school dance memories in England, Waterhouse recalled that the early 2000s soundtrack included "Thong Song," along with Chingy's "Right Thurr," Lil Jon's "Get Low" and Shaggy's "It Wasn't Me." "I feel like Lil Jon's 'Get Low' just allowed you to really come out of your shell," she said.
When asked to name her "main character" song, Waterhouse didn't hesitate, choosing Leslie Gore's feminist anthem "You Don't Own Me." "That's very main character energy," she explained. She also cited No Doubt's "Just a Girl" as another defining track, noting that Gwen Stefani's influence even found its way into her own songwriting. Waterhouse pointed out that her song "Notting Hill" references the famous movie quote, "I'm just a girl standing in front of a boy asking him to love her."

She also shouted out Gabrielle's "Dreams," Mazzy Star's "Fade Into You," and artists including Sharon Van Etten, Cat Power, Lucinda Williams and Ani DiFranco as major musical influences. And if she ever had to walk into a boxing match? Waterhouse already has the perfect entrance music picked out. "I'd probably be doing it to 'I'm Really, Really Hot' by Missy Elliott," she joked. "That would be pretty scary to my opponent, I think."
Waterhouse's new album, Loveland, is out now, and the singer is also preparing to hit the road on tour. No Doubt, fans can only hope some of these iconic songs make their way into a future setlist.
