7 Christmas Songs To Have a Holly Jolly Christmas

Christmas is just around the corner, and I am seriously beyond excited . This being my favorite holiday, like many others, I have a wide range of Christmas music I listen to, but I am going to tell you about my absolute favorites that I (no lie) listen to year round because they're just THAT good! I put them all (and more!) on a Spotify playlist that you can find here!

1. "Mary, Did You Know?" - Pentatonix

I do not think I will ever get over this cover. It still blows my mind this is all acapella. Mitch's high tenor is absolutely insane and Avi's low bass is CRAZY. Definitely a different take on the classic song, but still amazing.

2. "That's Christmas to Me" - Pentatonix

Another Pentatonix song. I am not entirely sure if this is an original song of theirs, but it is so beautiful. It makes me so happy want to get some hot chocolate and smile for the rest of my life.

3. Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays - *NSYNC

This is an oldie, but a goodie. I just really love *NSYNC and this song and want to dance around with a Santa hat on listening to this song for the rest of my days.

4. "The First Noël" - Josh Groban feat. Faith Hill

I love Josh Groban so much. I love Faith Hill so much. Combine the two, and you've got me in a puddle of tears

5. "River" - Sam Palladio

My obsession with Sam Palladio is becoming an issue. His voice is unique but simple. This is such a beautiful and not "normal" Christmas song that I just discovered! If you have seen the show Nashville , you might know of this song! It is absolutely beautiful.

6. "Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas" - Michael Buble

It's not Christmas if you don't have Michael Buble, right? "Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas" is my second favorite Christmas song of all time.

7. "O Holy Night" - Celine Dion

Okay, Celine is my girl. I can't listen to her without crying - I am not even kidding. This is my favorite. It will never not be my favorite. We all know her voice is absolutely insane and she just kills this song. The BEST Christmas song.

I hope you enjoy these songs and get some Christmas spirit in you this year!

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.
