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.

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.

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.
