My Top 5 Korean and Japanese Songs This Week

As you all know, I love music. I always try to keep myself updated on the newest music,and finding old music (that seems new to me). Here is a list of the top 5 songs that I have been listening to this week.

1. Insane Dream- Aimer feat. Taka from One Ok Rock (Japanese)

LISTEN:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TxZRTO9DWXA

I have been on this rock music kick lately, and this song is so addictive. First, I am a HUGE One Ok Rock fan, and Taka ( lead singer of One Ok Rock) being on the song is a plus. Aimer has this wierd, hypnotizing voice that was a great match for the song.

2.Being Myself- Beenzino (Korean)

LISTEN: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=raBrH1Q63Ms

This is one of my favorite songs on the "January" album. The song is quirky and upbeat and definitely a song you have to move around to. plus, I just like the message of "I'm just being myself" and not caring about what others say about you.

3.This Song- Brown Eyed Soul (Korean)

LISTEN:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uKGxxK-AVQs

Brown Eyed Soul has to be one of my favorite R&B groups ever, and this song definitely showcases their voices. It has all the characteristics of a good R&B song: sultry beat and catchy hook.I really can't say much more, it's just a beautiful song.

4.Taking Off- One Ok Rock (Japanese)

LISTEN:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kqfaDuYLW4A

So when I saw that this song was releasing, after a long tour, I was SUPER excited. It's a more contemporary rock song from the past heavier metal rock. I honestly was not disappointed at all, because it is a really good song.

5. Mistake- Drug Restaurant (Korean)

LISTEN:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WYWCfpNDg28

Even though Jung Joon Young is going through this current crazy lawsuit situation, it really doesn't take away from the fact that he is truly talented. I loved this whole album, but the headlining song, Mistake is the one that I like the most. This song is influenced by the band, Two Door Cinema Club, which is an older band that I used to listen to years ago. regardless of this influence, the song is still really good and you can't help but dance to it.

AI music threatens creativity

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.

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.
