5 Underrated Songs You Will Love
The Head and the Heart

Ever get tired of listening to the same songs over and over again on the radio? Because I do...I have been trying to explore different artists and songs that aren't typically heard over the radio. I have found a lot of great music and learned of different artists I otherwise may not have heard of. I wanted to share 5 of my favorite songs at the moment-- off the radio-- that you may want to give a listen.

1. "You Make Me" -- Chelsea Cutler

I started listening to Chelsea Cutler earlier this past summer after hearing one of her songs play over a video I was watching. I loved the song and after looking her up, I realized I loved all of her music. Her music has a much different feel than what I used to usually listen to. All of her music is really upbeat and positive, which makes me want to listen to it even more. "You Make Me" was the first song I heard by her and ultimately my favorite so far.

2. "Aftertaste" -- Shawn Mendes

I never used to listen to Shawn Mendes because he reminded me of a typical boy band member and someone that only little kids would listen to, for some reason. However, after hearing one of his songs from his album, "Illuminate," I started listening to him more. One of my favorite songs by him at the moment is "Aftertaste" because the lyrics are super meaningful, and the feel of the song is really beautiful.

3. "Higher Ground" -- Odesza

Odesza quickly became one of my favorite artists as soon as I started listening to her music. It has a very different vibe than anything I have ever heard before. Higher ground is one of my favorite songs by her; it's very uplifting and beautiful.

4. "All We Ever Knew" -- The Head and the Heart

The Head and the Heart has really great music; almost reminds me of The Lumineers. They have a very positive sound about their music, especially the lyrics. Listening to "All We Ever Knew" always puts me in a happy and refreshed mood. Perfect for when you need a little lifting up.

5. "First" -- Cold War Kids

The Cold War Kids have to be one of my favorite bands. Their music is so refreshing. For some reason, it reminds me of a sunny, summer day. Especially when I listen to "First," which is my absolute favorite song by them. I highly recommend listening to their music; it is all great music.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

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.

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.
