9 Weird Songs That I Listen To That Everyone Else Should Listen To, Well, Too

We all have our own taste in music. Some prefer rock than hip-hop, jazz than blues and so on.

Though I am a huge music lover, and I’ll listen to just about anything that has a good beat, a lot of my preferred music comes from foreign artists such as Utada Hikaru, Maximum the Hormone and a few others. Here are just a few songs from my playlist that I think everyone else should listen to.

1. “Animato” - Utada Hikaru


Ah, yes. Here we are again with Miss Utada. Maybe I’m a little obsessed, but this is one of my all-time favorite songs from the Japanese singer.

2. “My Girl” - Maximum The Hormone


A hard rock song from the Japanese band “Maximum The Hormone.” I know, I know. Weird name. But this song is a total banger.

3. “Back in the 90’s” - GroupLove


The ending theme to the Netflix show “Bojack Horseman.” The reason why this song sticks out to me is that it’s just pretty chill. Definitely a song you can relax to.

4. “Girls” - SE7EN (feat. Lil Kim)


A song that you can either get ready to or just listen to while being with your girls.

5. “Guilty” - Anna Tsuchiya


This is the ending theme of the CGI film “Resident Evil: Degeneration.” It’s a hard rock tune that made 12-year-old me headband so hard that my neck would hurt after.

6. “Hikari” - Utada Hikaru


The Japanese version of “Simple and Clean” from the very first “Kingdom Hearts.” A song you could vibe to with friends or dedicate to that special someone.

7. “Lonely One” - Nariaki Obukuro feat. Utada Hikaru

“I don’t wanna be the lonely one” the song starts out. Half the song is in Japanese so I honestly don’t know what half of it says, but Utada’s vocals chiming in makes this song everything.

8. “Moonwalking” - Late Night Alumni


Another chill song here on the playlist. This is a tune that you can just relax to while taking a nap, meditating, doing yoga, or just reminiscing.

9. “Niki Fm” - Hawthorne Heights


One of those “way back when” songs. Remember the “emo phase” we all went through? Oh yeah. This song will for sure bring you back to those times.

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.
