Quarantunes, Analyzed.

All our favorite artists are stuck inside, just like us!

May 30, 2020

Let's look on the bright side of things--all our favorite artists are stuck inside just like us! And for some of them, they took this as an opportunity to put pen to paper, and bang out some killer Quarantunes. What a bunch of troopers. But just because they did something doesn't mean it's good--geez someone's gotten a little cynical. Let's see what they've done.

Quarantine Clean by Turbo, Gunna, and Young Thug

YouTube

As a pretty big fan of Young Thug, I was disappointed to see his name on this interesting number. If given the choice between either never having to hear Quarantine Clean again and living in lock-down for another month, or having to listen to Quarantine Clean on repeat for the rest of my life and eradicating COVID-19 from the Earth, I'd actually have to give it some serious thought.

Gotta Be Patient by Michael Buble, Barenaked Ladies, and Sofia Reyes

Canadian Beats

This one seems a little patronizing. I think we all know pretty goddamn well that we need to be patient about getting back to our regular lives--I don't need to be told that in the form of a overly cheery song. I see this one getting really annoying, really quickly. It helps a little that when I hear Buble's voice I'm immediately transported to my happy place--Christmas time. Additionally, Sofia Reyes brings this one up a bit because I could listen to her sing all day.

Stuck With U by Ariana Grande and Justin Bieber

YouTube

I worship the ground upon which Justin Bieber places his Drew House slipper, but I'm going to be honest here and say that I was underwhelmed. It's not a bad song, but when combining two pop legends, I think I speak on behalf of the universe when I say we expect more!

Level of Concern by Twenty One Pilots

This song is perfect static music. Turn it on when your friends come over, and it will disappear perfectly into the background. That's probably not great to hear if you're Twenty One Pilots, but I just call it like I see it.

Better Days by OneRepublic

YouTube

OneRepublic kinda gives me last-day-of-christian-youth-camp-with-emotionally-charged-prepubescent-children vibes. Buttttt, I actually wouldn't skip this song if it came up. It's an uplifting message and it doesn't make me want to repeatedly slam my head into a wall. That's a win for me with OneRepublic.

6 Feet Apart by Luke Combs

YouTube

I was surprised by this one! The title had me wary that it might be a little cliché, but all and all I think this is an absolute banger. The song it's overly upbeat but it's not a total bummer either--a great happy medium. It also helps that Luke Combs has an incredible voice. Will definitely be adding it to my Yeehaw playlist and shamelessly scream sing along to it while driving play it with all the windows in my car rolled down.

Problems by Bryce Vine

Genius

This might be my favorite song to come out of lock-down. When you start listening to the lyrics you can see the connection to the pandemic, but it's not explicit which I appreciate considering I don't really want to listen to songs that will bring back this traumatic point in my life. Bryce Vine has the voice of an angel, and the chill, acoustic vibe keeps me calm for a solid three and a half minutes.

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.

Student Life

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.

There have been many lessons learned.

1. The importance of traditions.

2. How to be thankful for family and friends.

3. How to give back.

4. What the word "community" really means.

5. That it isn't about the destination, but the journey.

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.
