10 Peter Hollens Songs You Need To Check Out

Youtube

Peter Hollens is an a cappella artist, and he's is amazing. He's a lot like Pentatonix but he collaborates a lot more in his music.

10. "Les Miserables Medley" -- Peter Hollens feat. Evynne Hollens

The amount of work that Peter and Evynne put into this is amazing.

9. "Hallelujah" feat. Jackie Evancho

First off, props to Jackie Evancho for her amazing work. Peter astounds me with the amount of talent he has in this song.

8. "The Hanging Tree" -- Peter Hollens

I absolutely love how he can take this song and make it relevant to those who may have never read the "Hunger Games" series or have heard Jennifer Lawrence's version of this song.

7. "The Ed Sheeran Mega Medley" -- Sam Tsui and Peter Hollens

This mega medley is definitely mega. The amount of talent in that video is endless as Sam Tsui is an up and coming independent artist.

6. "Epic Goofy Medley" -- Peter Hollens & Stuart Edge

This song allows us to see a goofier side of Peter, and the video is just so much fun!

5. "1989 in 4 Minutes" -- Peter Hollens ft. Evynne Hollens

This medley is amazing because of the way that he trades off songs with his wife.

4. "Prince of Egypt Medley" -- Peter Hollens

"The Prince of Egypt Medley" is a wonderful medley. It shows the arrangement skills that he has and how well he can pull everything off. It is also a medley he does without his wife.

3. "Black Is the Color of My True Love’s Hair" -- Peter Hollens & Avi Kaplan

I love that he's so keen on working with Avi Kaplan (who is a known beatboxer and bass for Pentatonix but is also a solo artist). He shows that he fits right into the acapella genre with this song.

3. "The Prayer" -- Peter Hollens ft. Evynne Hollens

In "The Prayer," which is a tribute to his late father, Peter shows yet another talent he has which is beatboxing. He also shows that he can speak Italian through this song.

2. "What Are Words" -- ThePianoGuys, Peter Hollens & Eveynne Hollens

I love that he can take a song and make it so beautiful with some help from his wife, Evynne, and ThePianoGuys. The piano and his wife's lovely voice makes this number two on the list.

1. "Ashland’s Song" -- Peter Hollens

I saved the best for last with "Ashland's Song." Ashland is his son, and Hollens tried to capture the ride of being a father with this song. If you aren't at least tearing up at the end of this song, I don't know if you're human or not.

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

Humans and robots face off in a rock band battle with guitars and drums, under dynamic lighting.

StableDiffusion

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
