7 Songs Turning 10-Years-Old In 2017
Genius

In 2007, I was in the fifth grade and I distinctly remember all of the complete bangers that came out that year. 2007 was the year that I started to listening to more music as websites like YouTube and programs like Limewire provided music in one convenient place without having to buy CDs. I like all kinds of music but some of my favorite songs of all time come from 2007. Here are seven songs that will make you feel extremely ancient in the year 2017.

1. Crank That (Soulja Boy)


Here’s a topical one with all of that recent drama between Soulja Boy and Chris Brown. I’m uninterested but seriously- Who doesn’t remember dancing to this at their spring fling when they were younger? It was the best of times, and they were the worst of times.

2. This Ain't A Scene, It's An Arms Race

Here is a band that made my childhood and teenage years worth all of the embarrassing moments. I keep Fall Out Boy near and dear to my heart. I am so glad to have been introduced to this band when I was younger as an appetizer for the rest of my favorite music tastes.

3. Girlfriend


Avril Lavigne’s entire album "The Best Damn Thing" is a staple to pop punk in 2007. Even if you don’t like the genre, you know this song and you know every word. Am I right my fellow millennials?

4. Lip Gloss

I distinctly remember this song playing on every one of my girl friends’ MySpace profile autoplay. The music video to this gives off extreme 2007 vibes as well. The aesthetic is award-winning.

5. No One


This song is just a wonderful vocal performance from Queen Alicia Keys. "No One" won Best Female R&B Vocal Performance and Best R&B Song at the 2008 Grammy Awards, in case you forgot what a masterpiece this song is.

6. Hey There Delilah

Here is everyone’s favorite love song for years and years on end. I remember people making parodies of this song for three straight years and I think it has become a meme at this point. The amount of covers that emerged on early YouTube were plentiful.

7. Stronger

As controversial as Kanye West may be, you’ve got to admit that "Graduation" was an album that you heard for months because of how good it was. I can’t believe this song is going to be 10-years-old this year. It really feels like just yesterday that I first listened to this song and instantly knew how it was going to shape the rest of 2000s 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.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
