Listening to these songs bring back mixed emotions, from the songs you used to jam out to in your bedroom growing up to the songs you would cry your heart out to when you had relationship drama; here are 59 songs that you need to rediscover.

I am a huge Aerosmith fan and just hearing this song brings me back to my childhood.

4. "Come Clean" -- Hilary Duff

A classic from one of the best starts to come from Disney Channel.

This song is such a jam, no matter how old it may be.

14. "Don't Trust Me" -- 3OH!3

At the time this song came out I was in middle school and it was so overplayed on the radio, but it never fails to put me in a good mood.

This song is just a song you can sit and think about your life to.

Another Lifehouse song, but it is seriously so good and full of emotion.

This song came out in 2001, but it's a song that I think should be brought back. It makes me just want to drive with my windows down and just rock out to it.

38. "Baby Got Back" -- Sir Mix-A-Lot

With Anaconda being popular now, this song is easily forgotten, but it's such a good song to jam to.

I couldn't make this list and not put Green Day on it. Even today people rock to Green Day all the time.

This song got me through some tough times, with lyrics like, "Even the best fall down sometimes," it holds a lot of meaning in it.

Another song that came out when I was in elementary school. I remember listening to this on the bus with my friends.

Everyone had a time in their life when they listened to Avril Lavigne. Being in middle school at the time this song came out, this song is still a jam.

43. "Shake It" -- Metro Station

I really miss this song... a lot. I think it was underrated and deserved way more than what it got.

The Script was one of my favorite bands and this song is such a great song.

All I have to say is, although there is really good music out today, I really miss the music that I listened to in elementary school and middle school.

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.
