Thanksgiving

In This Article:

Don't get me wrong, I love Christmas music as much as the next person but...what about Thanksgiving?!

Yeah, it's kind of that awkward in-between period of trick or treat and deck the halls that everyone forgets about until break starts but it's kinda one of the best days of the year. It's an excuse to eat until you feel like you're gonna burst then eat some more because- pie!

I've tried listening to Christmas music the morning of November 1st but couldn't really get into so I went searching for Thanksgiving music. Let me tell you, the options were slim. Some of the ones I found made me laugh to the point of tears, so I decided to share.

I hope you enjoy listening to these as much as I did, even if they don't make it to your playlist.

1. "Turkey Time!" by Harry Kindergarten Music

Simple and fun! This one is sure to get stuck in your head and get your tail feathers shakin'!

2. "It's Thanksgiving" by Nicole Westbrook

Suuuper cheesy, just like those potatoes! But hey at least it's not "Friday"!

3. "Thanksgiving Song" by Adam Sandler

So maybe Adam Sandler isn't the best singer/song writer but he sure can bring a smile to your face!

4. "Gobble Gobble Turkey Wobble" by Koo Koo Kanga Roo

Another great dancing song, similar to a turkey hokey pokey (which actually does exist but isn't included).

5. "A Turkey Dance" by The Learning Station

Take a break from the Cupid Shuffle and Cha Cha Slide, give the Turkey Dance a try!

6. "Thanksgiving Feast" by The Learning Station

It's to the tune of Frère Jacques, but that doesn't make it any less cute of a Thanksgiving song!

7. "A Thanksgiving Song" by Andrew Lowe

I thought this one was pretty funny and he makes exactly my point of there being no Thanksgiving songs in the very beginning! And those dance moves!

8. "Thankful" by Josh Groban

Alright so definitely more mellow than the others but it makes a great point about thankfulness!

9. "Thankful For You" by TobyMac

TobyMac is the bomb! This tune will for sure have you singing along and being thankful!

10. "The Chicken Dance" by Werner Thomas

Not everyone likes Turkey or can have turkey because of allergies or some other reason so here's to you guys! Enjoy your chicken or whatever you may be eating Thanksgiving night!

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.

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.
