My 'Friends' Playlist

Okay, so last week I discussed how there is a piece of us in each of our friends. Without friends life would be less exciting, less transforming, less eventful, etc.

Friendship is a bond like no other. For that reason I turned to my love of music to help in times when my friends and I can't be down the street, down the hall or hell, right next to each other for comfort.

I asked my friends, through a post on Facebook, to think of a song that I would also know and reminds them of our friendship.

Between a few comments, and songs I added myself, this is my current 'friends' playlist:

When I Look At You - Miley Cyrus

Thank You - Megan Trainor

Work From Home - Fifth Harmony

Because You Live - Jess McCartney

Home - Alvin and the Chipmunks/Chipettes

Party in the USA - Miley Cyrus

Rght Here - Miley Cyrus

Here's to Never Growing Up - Avril Lavigne

Play It Again - Luke Bryan

Panda - Desiigner

Hands to Myself - Selena Gomez

You and Me Together - Miley Cyrus

Dynamite - Taio Cruz

Can't Be Tamed - Miley Cyrus

Call Me Maybe - Carly Rae Jepsen

True Friend - Miley Cyrus

Whatever it Takes - Alexz Johnson

Umbrella - Rihanna

Born This Way/Ain't No Stopping/Firework - Alvin and the Chipmunks/Chipettes

Like a G6 - Far East Movement

Wanna Be That Song - Brett Eldredge

You Can Come to Me - Ross Lynch and Laura Marano

Now if you were a friend who suggested a song, you would understand why it was on this playlist, if you are a friend of mine and did or did not provide a song you'd understand the ones I chose. This list is very representative of what the words of a song or memory of a moment with a given song can do for me.

If you are a friend of mine and can think of more for me to add, share and link this article and comment on it your song choice. If you are simply looking to do this yourself, take my advice provided above and go for it!

Music is a powerful tool and one that is very personal to me. Same way my friends mean the world to me and make a huge impact of my life everyday :)

P.S. . . If any of my readers would like me to explain why a certain song is on this playlist, I'd be more than willing to share. If I get enough interest I'd even re-do this piece to have it highlight the meaning behind each song. But for that I need shares, page views, interest, comments. So go for it!

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.
