12 Avicii Songs That Are Just As Memorable As He Is
The Trent

On April 20, 2018, the music industry lost an amazing DJ and producer. Avicii, whose real name was Tim Bergling passed away at the age of 28 due to health reasons. Before he passed away, he was nominated for the Top Dance/Electronic Album in the Billboard Music Awards, which I believe he rightfully deserved. Along with this, Avicii performed at many sold out shows including The Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles, CA, and The iHeartRadio Music Awards. We lost a great person and it shook the entire EDM nation, both fans and other artists. Avicii was so young and we weren't ready to have him leave us but at least we have the music he left behind as a memory of him.

1. The Nights

"He said, "One day you'll leave this world behind
So live a life you will remember."
My father told me when I was just a child
These are the nights that never die
My father told me".

2. Wake Me Up

"So wake me up when it's all over
When I'm wiser and I'm older
All this time I was finding myself, and I
Didn't know I was lost".

3. Without You (feat. Sandro Cavazza)

"You
Said you'd follow me anywhere
But your eyes
Tell me you won't be there".

4. Waiting For Love

"Monday left me broken
Tuesday I was through with hoping
Wednesday my empty arms were open
Thursday waiting for love, waiting for love
Thank the stars it's Friday".

5. Levels

"Oh, sometimes
I get a good feeling, yeah
Get a feeling that I never, never, never, never had before, no no
I get a good feeling, yeah".

6. The Days

"Under the tree where the grass don't grow
We made a promise to never get old
You had a chance and you took it on me
And I made a promise that I couldn't keep".

7. Broken Arrows

"I've seen the darkness in the light
The kind of blue that leaves you lost and blind
The only thing that's black and white
Is that you don't have to walk alone this time".

8. Hey Brother

"What if I'm far from home?
Oh brother, I will hear you call!
What if I lose it all?
Oh sister, I will help you out!"

9. Fade Into Darkness

"This world can seem cool and grey
But you and I are here today
And we won't fade into darkness".

10. Lonely Together (feat. Rita Ora)

"I might hate myself tomorrow but I’m on my way tonight
Let’s be lonely together
A little less lonely together".

11. Feeling Good

"It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life for me, yeah
And I'm feeling good".

12. I Could Be The One (feat. Nicky Romero)

"Do you think about me when the crowd is gone?
It used to be so easy, you and me
I could be the one to make you feel that way
I could be the one to set you free".

Rest in peace Avicii. You will be missed.

AI music threatens creativity

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.
