The ULTIMATE Christmas Playlist

Zoella

Okay, let's face it – now that Thanksgiving is over, it's time to get into the Christmas spirit!

To be completely honest, I've been waiting for this moment since after Halloween.

What better way to spread that Christmas cheer than with the ULTIMATE Christmas playlist?!

Here are some of my favorite Christmas jams:

Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays by *NSYNC

Truly an under-appreciated classic. If you say you don't jam out when you hear the piano intro, you are lying. The 90's vibe reminds me of a simpler time whenever I listen to it, and it helps me unwind and prepare for the excitement of the season!

Mary, Did You Know? by Pentatonix

It's undeniable that Pentatonix is one of the most talented group of individuals to ever exist. Their harmonies are indescribable and resonate in the soul. Though their Christmas albums are bumpin', this is one song that really sticks with me. It's hauntingly beautiful and still carries the beautiful message of Christmas's true meaning.

I'll Be Home for Christmas by Michael Bublé

The king of Christmas himself can make any Christmas carol or song sound like it belongs in some sort of music hall of fame. This is one of my favorite Christmas songs in general, so hearing it in his voice just makes anticipating Christmas that much morepleasant.

Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas by Sam Smith

Another classic Christmas song turned into a musical masterpiece by a man of raw talent. I can listen to Sam Smith 24/7 and never get tired of him. For example, I remember hearing this for the first time and playing it on repeat for three consecutive days #noshame. Take a listen and be hypnotized by the beauty that is Sam Smith's perfect voice.

This Christmas by Chris Brown

I don't know why, but this has always been my favorite version of this song. Chris Brown's distinct voice and talent adds to the enjoyable tune of the song. It's such a low-key jam that you can either belt it or just have it playing in the background while you're decorating your tree.

All I Want for Christmas is You by Mariah Carey

Did you think I was going to finish off this article without including the ULTIMATE Christmas song?! There isn't a person that I know that doesn't instantly jam out to this song when those jingle bells start to ring. This has been one of the most prominent Christmas songs in my life since childhood, and I will surely be jamming out to it every Christmas for the rest of my life; I know you will be, too.

Amp up your countdown to Christmas with these songs. I promise the days leading up to Christmas will be that much more cheery and bright!

Humans and robots face off in a rock band battle with guitars and drums, under dynamic lighting.

StableDiffusion

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

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.
