12 Songs You Should Be Listening To But Probably Aren't

12 Songs You Should Be Listening To But Probably Aren't
Bad Suns

Everyone listens to music. Or at least they should. I've read somewhere that people that listen to at least five songs a day are happier. And they have more sex. I don't know how accurate this is, but I know that music certainly helps me get through the day. In the car, I personally prefer to listen to my phone because hearing the same ten songs on the radio day after day gets old pretty fast. So if you're wanting to look for new music that hasn't hit the radio yet, look no further than this here listicle.

Underage

When I was in high school, I didn't really do much. But this song definitely described the summer before my sophomore year in college. R. Kelly was on the radio, we raced trucks, and had twist off wine. We thought we had all the time in the world and then, then it was gone.

Next to Me ft. Kendrick Lamar

I'm a firm believer that Kendrick Lamar can make any song better. I don't know why, but I just love his voice. Mix it with Emeli Sandé's hit song and it's a hidden gem that not many people know about.

Crazy as Me

Maybe I just like horses and wrap around porches. And basically anything George Strait sings. And I'm somewhat crazy.

Cardiac Arrest

I first heard this song being covered by Keaton Stromberg and once I heard the original, I bought Bad Suns' cd. Their song Salt, which is about being transgender, comes as a close second favorite.

If you've ever been in a situation where you never want to let someone down or hurt them, then this is the song for you.

What Ifs

Kane Brown teamed up with high school friend Lauren Alaina to basically make the song every girl wants to hear from the guy they love.

Does It Hurt

I heard this song for the first time the other day and laughed. It's basically a bunch of cheesy pick up lines piled into one song. It's sure to put a smile on your face.

Come Pick Me Up

I can't even begin to explain this song and why I love it so much. It's just one of those that I listened to for the first time and had it on repeat. I still do, actually.

Girls

Guys think they know everything. They think that once you love them and they break your heart, you won't love again. Which is kind of offensive because they don't know how tough girls really are.

I Could Use A Love Song

As a cynical person, I don't like much to do with love. I'd rather be alone. But sometimes you need something besides a vice. Sometimes you just need a love song to make you feel better, to believe that there might be someone worth waiting for.

Can't Turn You Down


We all have that one person that we can't say no to. "A phone call turns into a what's up, what's up turns into baby pick me up." They're so bad for you, but you don't care.

Wine After Whiskey


Going from one relationship to another is never easy. But when you love someone so much, the relationship is so passionate, then you go to something less, it's exactly like having wine after whiskey. You're waiting for that burn, that heat, that rush. Then it never comes.

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.

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.
