Changing Up Your Christmas Playlist

New Christmas Songs Aren't All Bad!

Changing Up Your Christmas Playlist

We all love the Holidays, and all of the things that come with this festive season, but there are some things that are not always the best. A major thing that radio stations and tv channels have a problem with is playing the same song over, and over again. Though I cannot freaking wait for Christmas to get here, there are some songs I would rather not hear again until next season. Why don't you listen to some newer songs instead? This list shows an overrated Christmas song and then a song you should listen to instead!

Jingle Bell Rock - Bobby Helms


Instead: Christmas Lights by Coldplay


All I Want For Christmas Is You - Mariah Carey

Instead: Love Is Christmas by Sara Bareilles


The Chipmunk Song - The Chipmunks


Instead: Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy - Pentatonix

Rudolph, The Red Nosed Reindeer - Gene Autry

Instead: Snoopy's Christmas (Christmas Bells) - The Royal Guardsmen

Grandma Got Run Over By A Reindeer - Elmo and Patsy

Instead: Winter Wonderland/Here Comes Santa Claus - Snoop Dogg and Anna Kendrick


Rockin' Around The Christmas Tree - Brenda Lee

Instead: Christmas In The Room - Sufjan Stevens


Jingle Bells - Singing Dogs


Instead: Santa Tell Me - Ariana Grande


I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus - Jimmy Boyd

Instead: Cold December Night - Michael Bublé


Frosty The Snowman - Gene Autry

Instead: Dominick The Donkey - Lou Monte

Santa Baby - Eartha Kitt

Instead: Silver Snow - Derik Nelson


Do You Hear What I Hear - Bing Crosby


Instead: Mary Did You Know? - Pentatonix


Explain your playlist this holiday season, trust me, you'll thank me later!

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.

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.
