http://www.digitaltrends.com/music/two-radio-stations-are-playing-christmas-music-in-october/

Christmas is coming soon, and it's time to get into the holiday spirit. What better to way to make it feel like the holidays than to play a little Christmas music? Here are the top five Christmas songs that you can take with you wherever you go - holiday office parties, family get-togethers, gatherings on Christmas morning...The possibilities are endless with this quick Christmas playlist!

5. Crabs for Christmas - David Deboy

"Santa cried, 'Put him down right this instant. Now, my boy, what you want's not so odd. But there's no crabs 'til May, so we'll hop in my sleigh, and we'll fly to New England where I'll get you scrod."

A true Christmas classic apparently popular in the Baltimore area. Play this song at your Christmas dinner this year (no crabs necessary).

4. Santa Claus Goes Straight to the Ghetto - Snoop Doggy Dogg

"Santa Claus on the ceiling, Jack Frost chillin'. Pinch the Grinch for being a holiday villain."

The perfect song to spread some holiday cheer at any family gathering. Appropriate for all ages.

3. Ludacrismas - Ludacris

"And then maybe Santa Claus will come around my way so all the kids on my block can look up and say, 'hey.'"

Perhaps one of the most popular Christmas songs among millennials. Ludacris is appropriate for any occasion.

2. Silent Night - Matt Mulholland

*recorder sounds*

Ahhhh, the sweet sound of a recorder can always take us right back to elementary school. Relive your glory days with an enchanting take on a Christmas classic.

1. I Farted on Santa's Lap (Now Christmas is Gonna Stink For Me) - The Little Stinkers

"And so I'll always cherish that special moment when I realized even old Saint Nick rips one now and then."

What screams Christmas more than a choir of children singing about farting?

If this selection of beautiful holiday music doesn't get you into the holiday spirit, I don't know what will. Merry Christmas!

Humans and robots face off in a rock band battle with guitars and drums, under dynamic lighting.

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.

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.
