It’s the moment we have all been waiting for.

The notorious Red Hot Chili Peppers are back and better than ever.

The world is being #blessed with another album after five years of waiting.

On Thursday, "Dark Necessities," the second track on the album, was gifted to the public.

With Flea’s mesmerizing bass and Kiedis’ smooth vocals, the track is everything we could have hoped for.

With the ever wavering sound of this guiding group, the sound of this album in its entirety could be anywhere from "Mother’s Milk" to "Stadium Arcadium." Honestly, who knows?

The LP was produced by Danger Mouse and mixed by Radiohead producer and long-time collaborator, Nigel Godrich.

It’s gonna be golden.

"The Getaway" Track List:

1. "The Getaway"

2. "Dark Necessities"

3. "We Turn Red"

4. "The Longest Wave"

5. "Goodbye Angels"

6. "Sick Love"

7. "Go Robot"

8. "Feasting on the Flower"

9. "Detroit"

10. "This Ticonderoga"

11. "Encore"

12. "The Hunter"

13. "Dreams of a Samurai"

It has been ages since this group released a studio album and we have been getting anxious. One reason for this delay had to do with the fact that bassist, Flea, went snowboarding and broke his arm when they were supposed to start recording. Ballers gonna ball and Flea went and did just that. Hoop number one: one-armed bassist.

Hoop number two emerged shortly thereafter. Though the group wrote 20-30 songs pre-recording time, Brian Burton of Danger Mouse, told them to scrap it and start fresh. Burton, being the producer, had the final say in the matter, though it caused some distress among the group.

Though there was some initial pushback, trust in the producer was the most important, so Kiedis & Co. caved and tried it out. We will just have to wait and see what the combination of artists comes up with.

The group will be touring in Europe for the summer along with a few dates in the U.S. in California and Ohio, you lucky Buckeyes, you.

The album is expected to be released on June 17.

Stay tuned.

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.

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.
