Sometimes we feel that the songs that are constantly on the radio have no creative sparkle to them and these songs not only are they similar, but some even drive the 'ear-worm' syndrome ("a tune or part of a song that repeats in one's mind").

At one point, these new songs are not only so similar to each other but they are overplayed that I no longer listen to them whenever they come on the radio, or I will constantly switch between radio stations to find some other song to listen to. However, Postmodern Jukebox changes modern day songs by placing a vintage-retro twist onto them making them sound like a new song but post-modernized.

Here is a list of the 15 Postmodern Jukebox songs (there's more of course on their channel):

1) Closer-Retro '50s Prom Style Chainsmokers/Halsey Cover ft. Kenton Ch

2) Call Me Maybe- Postmodern Jukebox: Reboxed Cover ft. Von Smith

3) Mr. Brightside-1940s Rat Pack Style The Killers Cover ft. Blake Lewis


4) Cry Me a River- Vintage '50s R&B Justin Timberlake Cover ft. Von Smith


5) Grenade-Vintage '60s Style Bruno Mars Cover ft. Brielle


6) Poker Face- 1946 Big Band Style Lady Gaga Cover ft. Kelley Jakle


7) Focus- Ray Charles Style Ariana Grande Cover ft. LaVance Colley


8) Oops!... I Did It Again- Vintage Marilyn Monroe Style Britney Spears Cover ft. Haley Reinhart


9) Shake it Off- Vintage Motown Taylor Swift Cover ft. Von Smith


10) Rude- Vintage 1950s Sock Hop- Style MAGIC! Cover ft. Von Smith


11) Fancy- Vintage 1920s Flapper- Style Iggy Azalea Cover ft. Ashley Stroud


12) Timber- Vintage 1950s Doo Wop Pitbull/Ke$ha Cover


13) Rather Be- Vintage Western/"Westworld" Saloon- Style Clean Bandit Cover ft. Ada Pasternak


14) Bad Romance- Postmodern Jukebox: Reboxed ft. Sara Niemietz & The Sole Sisters


15) Umbrella- Vintage "Singin' in the Rain" Style Rihanna Cover ft. Casey Abrams & The Sole Sisters

Postmodern Jukebox makes other modern songs with a post-modern twist on it. Sometimes there are great songs out there that just need a different spin on it so it doesn't fall into the category of songs that sound the same as the rest of other songs.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
