As a kid, I was super into the Jonas Brothers, Hannah Montana, Demi Lovato and Big Time Rush. I listened to them religiously and owned t-shirts and other memorabilia like action figures, posters and CDs.

One time, I specifically remember going into this store when they were advertising this Hannah Montana makeover package, which included a t-shirt, an iconic blonde Hannah wig, and a kid's makeup kit, and me, being the obsessed 12-year-old that I was, BEGGED my mom for it. I ended up getting it and I felt like the coolest kid in school with that Hannah t-shirt.

Unfortunately, the only artists that I got to see live were The Jonas Brothers and Demi Lovato, who I had the pleasure of seeing when she was on Future Now: The Tour with Nick! Even though Big Time Rush, the Jonas Brothers, and Hannah Montana are no longer making music, we can still jam out to these iconic songs.


1. Burnin' Up - Jonas Brothers

Who doesn't love this song? And Big Rob's solo rap? ICONIC.

2. SOS - Jonas Brothers

Kevin's little arm dance? and Joe literally cutting himself on glass during the 2008 AMA's? So many iconic things in this song.

3. Year 3000 - Jonas Brothers

I TOOK A TRIP TO THE YEAR 3000, THIS SONG HAD GONE MULTI-PLATINUM, EVERYBODY BOUGHT OUR SEVENTH ALBUM, IT HAD OUTSOLD KELLY CLARKSON!

4. Best of Both Worlds - Hannah Montana

I don't know about you, but my 12-year-old self was shook when I found out Miley and Hannah were the same person, so this song was very traumatic for me, but now, it's a nostalgic jam.

5. Nobody's Perfect - Hannah Montana

I high-key still bust out in song randomly and it catches everyone off guard.

6. Life's What You Make It - Hannah Montana

I still have the Hannah Montana 2/Meet Miley Cyrus CD somewhere in my room and this is high-key my favorite song off of it.

7. Big Time Rush - Big Time Rush

You're lying if you say you don't know the lyrics to this song.

8. Any Kind of Guy - Big Time Rush

This is low-key (also high-key) still on my playlist.

9. Till I Forget About You - Big Time Rush

Before I got into all the bands that I'm into now, this was THE go to break-up song, and low-key probably still is.

10. Worldwide - Big Time Rush

When Jo left Kendall at the airport to board the plane, I literally felt my heart break into two.

11. Get Back - Demi Lovato

2008 Demi was iconic, what more can I say?

12. Here We Go Again - Demi Lovato

My 12-year-old/teenage self was jamming to these break-up songs before I even knew what a break-up was.

13. Heart Attack - Demi Lovato

Still HIGH-KEY my jam.

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.
