Songs That Will Make You Nostalgic For Carolina

The time is right around the corner: the glorious moment of finally returning to our beloved UNC. In just a few short weeks, I will be back in the land of Carolina Blue and Tar Heel pride and I couldn’t be happier. I’ve had Carolina on my mind more often recently and I have been listening to certain songs, which make my nostalgia for this University that much greater. Here are a list of some of the best songs to get yourself into that Carolina state of mind.

"Carolina Can"- Chase Rice

There’s something about this Carolina alum that highlights all the good things UNC has to offer. Add the fact he shot parts of his video around campus and you have a spine-shivering wave of nostalgia.

"Carolina in My Mind"- James Taylor

A classic and familiar tune on campus that needs no explanation as to why it’s one of the greatest songs of all time.

"Wagon Wheel"- Old Crow Medicine Show (or Darius Rucker's remake. Both are acceptable)

The amount of times I’ve belted out this song, in public and private, is uncountable. It always leaves me yearning for the land of the pines.

"Carolina Girls"- General Johnson and the Chairman of the Board

Carolina Girls? The best in the world.

"Carolina Girl"- Bobby Kendall

This up-and-coming artist manages to capture the fun and excitement of Chapel Hill in this country song. I also can't help but sing-shout the line "She's a Tar Heel, she's an angel," every time.

"Carolina"- Eric Church

Country music loves North Carolina and I always feel Carolina calling me home whenever I listen to this song.

"Carolina in the Morning"- Al Jolson

This 1947 classic shows that the love for Carolina has been around for generations. Nothing could be finer than to be in Carolina, indeed.

"Carolina"- Corey Smith

This breezy tune embodies all the adventure and memories Carolina has to offer.

As always, it’s a GDTBATH and GTHD!

Humans and robots face off in a rock band battle with guitars and drums, under dynamic lighting.

StableDiffusion

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

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.
