Songs That Prove P!nk Can Sing Anything

Country star Kenny Chesney has a new song that has been making its way up the Top 40. However, even a cursory listen reveals that he's singing with another superstar: Alecia Moore, otherwise known as P!nk. The idea of the two of them singing together is odd, but the song's drum machine beats and keyboard washes prove that it's not a country song that's more common these days. Still, hearing P!nk sing country is yet another genre where she stretches herself into proving she can sing anything. The proof isn't hard to find.

R&B

It's hard to believe, but P!nk was one of the myriad of teen pop stars that broke out at the turn of the millenium, though it's hard to compete against Britney and Christina. One of her first hits, "There You Go", fits more in the mold of R&B that was contemporary at the time. Though she's remembered for a different sound (even if she would revisit R&B again), Ms. Moore proved out of the gate that she was fierce from the beginning.

DANCE-POP

Though quirky, P!nk's ultra-danceable hit is a banger. Though it's an anamoly on her breakthrough modern classic album, it later paved the way for other hits that you could stomp to, both more rock-tinged and poppy.

POP-PUNK

This is perhaps the most recognizable P!nk sound. Missundaztood showed that P!nk was different, which not only helped solidify her place in pop history, but also helped make her more addictive. Her punk tendencies give her music muscle, whether delivering a perfect slice of pop-punk, going in a more brooding direction, or straight-out tearing down everyone in her way. Get ready to headbang.

BALLADS

P!nk has also done her fair share of ballads. They take different forms, be they string-aided weepers, piano-dominated songs that allows her to flex her vocal muscles, or even duets (this one a ballad that throws in piano and strings, along with other instruments like a huge drum machine). Alecia has proven over time to be a jack of all trades.

DUETS

P!nk is even so talented and not afraid to take risks, she made an entire duet album, under the moniker You+Me with Dallas Green of the outfit City and Colour. Folky songs like this won't make anyone forget the rest of P!nk's discography, though their piano cover of Sade is intriguing. Still, it's gratifying to know she can pull this off.

The list goes on. She can pull off more electronic-flavored songs, including if they're for a movie soundtrack, or for a greatest hits collection (which she released several years ago). No matter what the sound, Kenny Chesney's new hit also serves as a reminder of the virtually limitless talent and adaptability of Alecia Moore. Given that she already had a hit this year, there's no telling what she might pull off next.

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.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
