13 Songs to Put You Straight in the Feels
KKW Crying

If you're on the verge of a breakup, going through the tough recovery process, or you're in the aftermath, these are 13 songs to certainty put you right back in your feelings. Caution: Listen at your own risk! Don't say I didn't warn you. I've even gone as far as to rate them for you, on a scale from 1-10, with 10 being absolute heartache, and 1 being a little bothered.

  1. “Burn” - Usher: Rate - 7/10. This song will make you turn into an absolute hot mess if you're already in a vulnerable state.
  2. “Easy” - Rascal Flatts: Rate - 9/10. Straight tears.
  3. “Vice” - Miranda Lambert: Rate - 11/10. Seriously, don't listen to this before you finish whatever tasks you have left to do. You're going to need some real recovery time. Miranda, I feel you girl.
  4. “Over You” - Miranda Lambert: Rate - 8/10. Man, does this woman really know how to sing about some heartbreak. This is another big one, y'all. Grab the tissues.
  5. “Drop in the Ocean” - Ron Pope: Rate - 5/10. This is a middle of the road type of song. You'll survive.
  6. “Way with Words” - Blake Shelton: Rate - 6/10. This one is more of a "heck yeah, he/she sucks" song. Recommend if you're in the recovery stage.
  7. “Send My Love” - Adele: Rate - 3/10. You're over him/her. You don't care that y'all didn't work out. You finally have your mind together and you just wish the next guy/girl better luck than you had. Minimal tears with this one.
  8. “To the Left” - Beyonce: Rate - 4/10. You're pissed off, and rightfully so. Queen Bey gets you in the mindset to tell that boy bye.
  9. “Hold Up” - Beyonce: Rate - 12/10. You're going to feel like the baddest girl in the world, also super sad because of your situation, overall extremely emotional, and still very powerful. She's a Queen.
  10. “Wake Me Up When September Ends” - Green Day: Rate - 3/10 - Pretty sad song in general. Not necessarily about the same thing but it always puts me in a sad mood.
  11. “Whiskey Lullaby” - Brad Paisley: Rate - 7/10. TEARS.
  12. “I Hope You Dance” - Lee Ann Womack: Rate - 6/10. Girrrrrl, (or boy), prep yourself for this one.
  13. “Doing it Wrong” - Drake: Rate - 4/10. Throwback for ya. This isn't really the saddest song ever created, but it'll certainly make you feel a bit down. Until you remember how gorgoues Drake is, and then everything is fine again.

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.
