Personally, I'm a huge classic rock fan, and its the main genre of music that I like to listen to. I also enjoy some Hip-Hop, Pop, and Indie but that's as far as my music taste goes. Most of my favorite songs are by bands or artists in the classic rock genre. Without music in our society today, no one would have an outlet to relieve whatever emotions they're dealing with into something more positive, like music.

Crocodile Rock By Elton John

Elton John is my all-time favorite artist due to the fact that his music is so powerful and uplifting and always brightens up my mood. Crocodile Rock is such an amazing song because of the awesome beat, the electric instruments playing, and the incredible vocals by Elton. This uplifting and fun song is perfect to listen to at any time which is a huge reason for it being my absolute favorite. Elton John's life story is very powerful and inspiring which is why he's my all-time favorite.

Rhiannon By Fleetwood Mac

First off, Stevie Nicks's amazing vocals will automatically make any song 100 times better because she's just so amazing and powerful. Rhiannon is such a chill song that comes along with such an amazing vibe and is the perfect song to listen to in a car on a warm summer day. The melody just flows so well during the song and is so catchy as well. Fleetwood Mac as a whole delivers some of the most amazing songs with incredible vocals, instruments, and beats which is another big reason why I'm such a big fan of theirs.

Enter Sandman By Metallica

With this song being such a hard rock classic, I had to put it on my list. Enter Sandman is one of my all-time favorite Metallica songs because of how amazing the instruments sound in this song. Since it is a harder rock song, it may not be for everybody but it is for sure one of my favorites.

Earth Song By Michael Jackson

I feel like this song is way too underrated for how incredible it really is. At first Earth Song starts off pretty slow but the beat gets louder and just flows beautifully. Jackson's intent was to create a song that was lyrically deep yet melodically simple, so the whole world could sing along. This song has such an emotional message and continues to be one of my favorites because of how powerful it is. Michael Jackson never seems to disappoint with the music that he produced and put out during his career.

Bohemian Rhapsody By Queen

Honestly do I even need to put a reasoning on why this song is such an amazing anthem? Its a classic! Everyone knows this song because it's incredible and is so enjoyable to listen to. The lyrics are insanely catchy, and Freddie Mercury is just an amazing singer overall. if you haven't heard this amazing song, youre totally missing out!

Even though there's so many amazing artists and songs out in the world, these are my all-time top 5 favorites. You could say that I was born in the wrong generation just because of my music taste which I'm totally okay with. Older rock music is just what I grew up on and so I have such a huge appreciation for it now that I'm a teenager.

25 Beatles Lyrics: Your Go-To Guide for Every Situation

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday

And when the brokenhearted people, living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be.

And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you'll love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love

All you need is love, love is all you need

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more

Obviously the best superpower.

2. How to be thankful for family and friends.

3. How to give back.

4. What the word "community" really means.

6. The consequences of making bad choices.

7. To trust people, until you have a reason not to.

8. To be welcoming and accepting of everyone.

9. How to be my own, individual person.

10. How to work for what I want.

11. How to be great at giving directions.

12. How to be humble.

13. To be well-rounded.

14. How to be great at conflict resolution.

15. The beauty of getting outside and exploring.

16. To be prepared for anything.

17. That you don't always have to do it alone.

18. How to be creative.

19. To brush off gossip.

I have never been so thankful to know you.
