Destressing with Music

Music note clipartisbest.com

Finals week can be tough. Some stress while others don't. Finals have the ability to make or break your grade. So there's a ton of stress all around you. Relieving stress with music can help. Also there have been studies that show that music can help improve your learning ability. I Personally find that having music can lessen the stress. Here are my top songs that make me wanna get up and be productive. They are in no particular order and I don't own the videos that are in this article.

1. You Don't Own Me

I prefer this version because I first came across this version. Diane Keaton, Goldie Hawn, and Bette Midler are amazing role models in the film, at least towards the end. The movie this came from was 'The First Wives Club'. It came out in 1996. (source for info about the movie http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0116313/?ref_=nv_sr_1)

2. That's My Girl

If you need a pick me up just listen to this song. It's so good. It inspires me to get up and get stuff done.

3. You're Never Fully Dressed Without a Smile

Again same with # 1 this was the first version I came across. I grew up with an 'Annie' cassette. This song

4. Tomorrow

The first one is just Annie. Skip to 1:35 if you just wanna hear the song in the second video. The Second is the reprise version. My sister and I were OBSESSED with this cassette. My poor mom had to keep listening to the soundtrack, she also had to keep fixing the tape. I love you mom!

5. I wanna get better

This is an amazing cover of this song by the Bleachers. I really love it. This song makes me wanna get better.

6. Scream

If this song doesn't make you wanna scream then you might not have been a huge fan of HSM.

7. Jordan Fisher's voice

Yes, I know he isn't a song, but whenever he sings I just wanna get up dance. Dancing makes me become productive. He was in the Grease Live musical and is currently in Hamilton the Broadway musical.

8. Don't Stop Believin'

This song makes practically everyone motivated. If it doesn't then you're lying to yourself.

9. Cinderella

This song makes me happy. When I'm happy I can be productive.

10. Sorry

This song has a pretty awesome beat. I like this version of the video. It energizes me. It makes me wanna get up and dance.

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

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

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.
