11 Songs We Do Not Know The Words To But Sing Along To Anyway

We all know those songs that stick in our heads forever; however, we will never know the words because they are too hard to understand. As a natural instinct, we still mumble along, thinking our lyrics are the right ones.

1. The opening song to "The Lion King."

AHHH-TEPENYA-BABABEESH-DABABA, DENYAMON...

2. Shaggy - "It Wasn't Me"

HOW COULD I FORGET THAT I HAD LEFT YOU AN EXTRA KEY.... (RAP STARTS) BADADABEDADADA...

3. Lou Bega - "Mambo No. 5"

A LITTLE BIT OF (NAME HERE) ALL NIGHT LONG, A LITTLE MHM IN THE SUN, A LITTLE BIT OF (NAME THAT POPS IN MIND)...

4. Drake - "Jumpman"

WHAT IS FUTURE SAYING... HALLOWEEN... JUMPMAN, JUMPMAN, JUMPMAN

5. Sean Paul - "Get Busy"

(NO IDEA WHAT HE IS SAYING)... SHAKE THAT THING MS DADADA, SHAKE THAT THING...

6. Fetty Wap - "679"

AND I GOT THIS SODAAA...

7. Lil Wayne Verse - "Truffle Butter"

(MUMBLE WITH CONFIDENCE) CARPET....YOU KNOW, DA DA DA DA ...DA

8. The Spice Girls - "Wannabe"

...WE CAN BE JUST FINE...OH TELL ME WHAT YOU WANT WHAT YOU REALLY WANT

9. "The Cotton Eyed Joe"

(I honestly have always thought it was spelt and pronounced in one swift motion like "Cottoneyejoe" so we are already off to a great start.)

...WHERE DID YOU COME FROM WHERE DID YOU GO....SOMETHING....COTTON EYED JOE

10. "The Lion King" - "Hakuna Matata"

IT MEANS NO WORRIES...FOR THE REST OF YOUR DAYS....PHILOSOPHY...

11. Full House - "Theme Song"

WHAT EVER HAPPENED TO DA DO DABILITIES, THE MILK MAN, THE PAPERBOY, SOMETHING TV...

But we all mumble along and make up our own words along the way, making each song memorable and "a classic."

AI music threatens creativity

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

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.
