10 Songs To Get You Through Finals Week

ClipArt Panda

I hate finals week. Who doesn't? I have found, however, that listening to music helps me immensely. It gets my mind off things and makes me feel more relaxed. Here are some songs that I have found to help me when I am feeling overly stressed and anxious about my tests--whether it be because they are lowkey and calm me down, or because they pump me up and get ready to tackle my tests.

1. Mess Is Mine -- Vance Joy

"Hold on, my darling. This mess was yours, now your mess is mine."

2. Jesus Take the Wheel -- Carrie Underwood

"Jesus take the wheel. Take it from my hands. 'Cause I can't do this on my own."

3. Out of the Woods -- Taylor Swift

"Are we out of the woods yet... are we in the clear yet?"

4. Saltwater Gospel -- Eli Young Band

"I'm in heaven watchin' all these waves roll in. When I'm lost I know where to get found again."

5. Waiting for Superman -- Daughtry

"She's talking to angels, counting the stars. Making a wish on passing cars."

6. My Wish -- Rascal Flatts

"My wish, for you, is that this life becomes all that you want it to. Your dreams stay big, your worries stay small. You never need to carry more than you can hold."

7. Brand New -- Ben Rector

"Never thought I'd feel like this. Like when I close my eyes, and don't even care if anyone sees me dancing. Like I can fly, and don't even think of touching the ground."

8. Comeback Kid -- The Band Perry

"'Cause I'm a comeback, I'm a comeback kid. Don't know why bad things happened, but they did. I don't think I deserve the hurt I get, but I'm made for it. It's not the end, no, it's not the end."

9. What a Wonderful World -- Louis Armstrong

"The colors of the rainbow, so pretty in the sky. Are also on the faces, of people going by."

10. I'll Be There For You -- The Remembrandts

"I'll be there for you, 'cause you're there for me too."

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.
