With the holidays right around the corner, the radio begins to blast all of the best versions of every holiday songs. So many songs are taken from their original artists and recreated into different sounds. Some are better than the originals and others aren’t. Here is a list of the best holiday songs to start listening to this season.

22. Santa Claus is Coming to Town - Bruce Springsteen.


21. Holly Jolly Christmas - Burl Ives.

20. Santa Baby - Eartha Kitt.

19. Winter Wonderland - Michael Buble.

18. Grown Up Christmas List - Kelly Clarkson.

A song about all the things that no one can buy. Bringing the things that mean the most to your mind and showing you what the holidays are really about.

17. Blue Christmas - Elvis.

16. This Christmas - Donny Hathaway.

15. Happy Christmas (War is Over) - (TIE) John Lennon (1972), Maroon 5 (2010).

Sang by two very talented artists, this song is completely moving and is highly recommended to all.

14. Jingle Bells by Frank Sinatra.


13. Jingle Bell Rock by Bobby Helms.

The song that inspired the dance number in one of the most iconic movies of this generation. If you don’t know it, I recommend watching videos and learning the dance. It’s totally fetch.

12. Christmas Long Ago by The Echelons.

A song not known to most, however it is a personal favorite that makes anyone that listens want to stand up and dance with its old time sound.

11. Mistletoe by Justin Bieber.

10. Baby it’s Cold Outside by Michael Buble and Idina Menzel.

Taking this song in a different direction, Michael Buble and Idina Menzel did a beautiful job with their amazing talents. Easily making it a top 10.

9. White Christmas by Bing Crosby.

Everyone dreams to wake up Christmas morning and looking outside to a snowy Christmas, and this song perfectly explains it all.

7. Last Christmas by WHAM.

6. It’s The Most Wonderful Time of the Year by Andy Williams.

5. Merry Christmas Darling by The Carpenters.

4. Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas by Michael Buble.

Being just shy of the next Sinatra, Michael Buble has made this list multiple times and it is not hard to see why. His voice hits your soul in an amazing way. I recommend his whole Christmas album to all.

3. Baby It’s Cold Outside by Margaret Whiting and Johnny Mercer.

While there are so many versions of this song, this has to be the best out of all of them

2. Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas by Frank Sinatra.

1. All I Want For Christmas is You by Mariah Carey.

Being the most memorable Christmas songs for the past 22 years, it is no wonder why this song is number one on my list!

So with this list, I wish you all a happy holiday season!

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.

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.
