Best Songs You've Probably Never Heard Of

When asked to name our favorite artists, I'm sure a couple of names come to mind. Some people would say Bruno Mars, others Beyoncé, or maybe even mention a classic like Billy Joel. While these artists are great at producing songs that are well known by all ages, there are other artists out there who also produce great songs that are unfortunately not heard that often. In this article, I am going to list some songs that you've probably never heard of, but that will surely get you hooked and asking for more.

1. LP: "Into The Wild"

Out of all the songs on this list, this is probably the one that might seem the most recognizable. LP's "Into the Wild" was featured on a Citi Bank commercial in 2012 and soon became a popular song within the indie-pop circle. This song is sure to get you hooked on LP.


2. Oliver Penn: "The Emperor" (ft. Guilla)

Some have called him an "alternative rock cowboy," but I call him a rising musician and a great friend of mine. If there is someone to keep on your radar, it's Oliver and his unique and original sound. On http://www.oliverpennmusic.com/ you can find links to his song "The Emperor" as well as other cool stuff like events and social media pages.


3. Trombone Shorty: "Hurricane Season"

Most of my band friends will know this song, but for those of you who don't listen to this type of music, Trombone Shorty and his song "Hurricane Season" is a good way to get introduced to this genre.


4. Eivør: "Hounds Of Love"

While not very popular in the U.S., Eivør has a strong presence in Europe. As a native of the Faroe Islands, Eivør's sound is a blend of traditional Faroese folk infused with a hint of modern pop and rock. If her songs were played here in the U.S., I'm sure she would be very popular. Check out her song "Hounds of Love" on Youtube.


5. LP: "Lost On You"

Once again, LP is featured on this list because I truly can't help it. When listening to her song "Lost On You," try to find the live version because she's one of those artists that sounds even better without radio edit.


6. Busty and the Bass: "The Real"

If you are looking for a fun song featuring a lot of brass and vocals, this is the song for you. I just learned about this song a couple of days ago and I can't stop listening to it. Check out their song "The Real."

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.
