10 Songs That Need To Be Remade

I'm a big fan of old songs being remade. Here are a list of songs I want to hear with a new sound and vibe.

1. "Hit The Road Jack" by Ray Charles

I'm a big fan of Ray Charles and this song is still so catchy. I would love to hear this song with a hip hop twist.

2. "Witchcraft" by Frank Sinatra

This is another oldie but goodie that I want to hear on the radio again. I can see Michael Buble or even Taylor Swift. I bet she could put a cool pop spin on the song.

3. "Don't Want You Back" by Backstreet Boys

One of my favorite BSB songs needs to make a comeback on the radio in some way, shape, or form.

4. "Pony" by Ginuwine

"Pony" made a comeback with the release of Magic Mike. It only makes sense that this song be remade and upgrades to fit the current flow of music.

5. "I Think I'm In Love" by Jessica Simpson

This song has the potential of being a new LGBTQ anthem if it were remade by a male artist. I'd love to hear a new version of this song.

6. "Blurry" by Puddle of Mud

This is an awesome rock song that needs to be on the radio again. Any rock band would suffice. Someone just needs to make this happen. I can imagine Taylor Momsen's band, The Pretty Reckless, rocking the sh*t out of this song.

7. "Wonderwall" by Oasis

I think "Wonderwall" would sound so beautiful as a country song. Miranda Lambert and Carrie Underwood released a song together fairly recently and I think they could create an amazing rendition of this song together.

8. "The Chain" by Fleetwood Mac

This song is such a classic I don't think that much needs to be done to bring it up to date. It just needs to air on the radio again.

9. "Run" by George Strait

I first heard this song sung by Taylor Swift during a live performance and I thought it was wonderful. I'd love to hear a remake of "Run" by Sam Hunt, though. He has the voice of an angel.

10. "Candy shop" by 50 Cent ft. Olivia

This song is another classic, in my book. I'm picturing an EDM remake in my mind. I'm thinking trap or dupstep. I would go wild if I heard this on the radio.

So, there you have it. This is my list of songs that need to be remade. If you think I'm forgetting a song, leave a comment on what song or songs you want to be remade.

AI music threatens creativity

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

We are all more than just one sign.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
