13 Standout Songs From '13 Reasons Why'
Pop Sugar

13 Reason Why is the show everyone seems to be talking about this past couple of weeks. While most articles you have been seeing on your news feed have been about why the story is important or why someone thinks that it was romanticizing suicide, I'm keeping opinions completely out of this article. I'm just here today to talk a little about the fantastic music featured in this show. Because it's fantastic. So without further ado, here are 13 of the most stand out songs from the show.

1. Only You- Selena Gomez

With Selena being executive producer of the show, it only makes sense that she would write a song for the show. Beautiful, touching, haunting, but what more could we expect from Selena, to be honest.

2. Bored- Billie Eilish

I had never heard of Billie previously to watching the show, but I very much enjoyed this song and her style. Reminds me a bit of Ellie Golding.

3. Love Will Tear Us Apart- Joy Division

Enjoy the addition of an oldie to the soundtrack. Definitely a song that would be one of Tony's tapes.

4. Into The Black- Chromatics

This song is a couple years old, but I had never heard of it before the show. Chilling, but very powerful and a great song.

5. Kill Em With Kindness- Acoustic- Selena Gomez

Another Selena song, but this one was not created for the show. The Acoustic version of this song however is beautiful and I almost actually prefer this version over the original.

6. The Night We Met- Lord Huron

Definitely my favorite of the songs I discovered from the show. Amazing, beautiful, 10/10.

7. A 1000 times

Really like the vibe of this song, more of an indie rock song.

8. High- Sir Sly

While most of the songs from the show are kind of more slow and depressing, this song is a little more upbeat. For that reason, I really enjoy and appreciate this song.

9. Cool Blue- The Japanese House

The beat to this song is really cool, and its different from a lot of the other songs on the soundtrack, I really enjoy this one.

10. The Killing Moon- Roman Remains

Kind of gives off a creepy vibe if I'm being honest... Also getting a lot of Lorde vibes from this song.

11. Fascination Street- The Cure

slightly odd that the intro of this song is over 2 minutes long... Definitely fits the theme of the show though.

12. The Walls Came Down- The Call

Another song from the 80s but definitely fits the aesthetic of the show with the tapes.

13. The Stand- The Alarm

This show was really loving the 80s.

Happy listening!

I am going to a rhyme without reason date function and I have looked at so many different rhyming words and I figured there need to be a new list of words. At these functions, there are usually at least two rockers and boxers and an umpteenth amount of dogs and frogs. I have come up with a list of creative and unique ideas for these functions.

Epic Creation Myths: Norse Origins Unveiled

What happened in the beginning, and how the heavens were set in motion.

The Norse Creation Myth

Now, I have the everlasting joy of explaining the Norse creation myth. To be honest, it can be a bit kooky, so talking about it is always fun. The entire cosmos is included in this creation myth, not just the earth but the sun and the moon as well. This will be a short retelling, a summary of the creation myth, somewhat like I did with Hermod's ride to Hel.

8tracks radio

We all scroll through the radio stations in the car every once in a while, whether its because we lost signal to our favorite one or we are just bored with the same ol' songs every day. You know when you're going through and you hear a song where you're just like "I forgot this existed!" and before you know it, you're singing every word? Yeah, me too. Like, 95% of the time. If you're like me and LOVE some good throwback music, here's a list of songs from every genre that have gotten lost in time, but never truly forgotten.
