Made In The A.M.: A Review Of One Direction's New Album

As an avid One Direction fan, I have no words about the new album that just came out.

Okay, so each and every One Direction has it’s own style. I admit that I still listen to their first album at times, which is completely different from this new album. This album has amazing songs, great sound, great lyrics and great vocals. As much crap One Direction gets about being a typical talentless boy band, this album blew me away. Here are review of three of my favorite songs from the album.


"Perfect"

If you’ve been to the Rec at UW-L lately, you’ve probably heard this one (if your headphones weren’t in). This is a fun, catchy song with good lyrics and a great tune. It’s a mix of fast and slow paced, and the lyrics are awesome and different from any other song I’ve heard from any other One Direction song I’ve heard so far.

Favorite Lyrics: “If you like when I drive with the windows down, if you like going places you can’t even pronounce”



"I Wanna Write You A Song"

I’m generally an emotional person, but this song almost brought me to tears the first time I heard it. This song is the first 1D song that has made me this emotional since "Little Things".

It is honestly one of the sweetest songs I’ve heard by One Direction, and they’ve had five different albums. This is a song that will get you thinking about a special person or time in your life. It was too hard to just choose one favorite line from the song so I chose two:

Favorite Lyrics: “Everything I need I get from you. Giving back is all I wanna do”

“I wanna build you a boat, one that’s strong as you are free. So anytime you think your heart is gonna sink, you know it won’t”



"Drag Me Down"

This is one of my favorite songs from One Direction’s new album because it gets me pumped. I can listen to this to give me motivation for homework or to lift weights at the gym! You don’t always have to listen to intense rap at the gym to get you pumped up, sometimes One Direction does the trick :)

Favorite Lyrics: “I’ve got a fire for a heart, I’m not scared of the dark...I’ve got a river for a soul, and baby you’re a boat”


Overall, One Direction’s new album is absolutely amazing and I highly recommend everyone check it out on Spotify and on Itunes Music.

AI music threatens creativity

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

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.
