Songs You Should Be Listening To Right Now: Volume 1
Eye Dialogue

I've decided that each month I am going to post an article of what I've been listening to. Here is October's list of Songs You Should Be Listening To Right Now!

1. She Keeps Me Warm- Mary Lambert

Did you know the chorus of Macklemore’s “Same Love” is song of its own? In this song, the beautiful and talented Mary Lambert tells the sweet story of new, pure love.

2. Walking in Memphis- Marc Cohn

Because it’s a classic, and it never fails to make me smile and sing at the top of my lungs to my steering wheel

3. Why Georgia- John Mayer

When I listen to this song, I picture it playing as I was up late on a Sunday morning with lots of sunlight pouring through the windows.

4. There Will Be Time- Mumford & Sons

I just think it sounds beautiful. The mixture of voices and cultures is captivating and the passion for their music is displayed clearly by each artist involved. If you don't do anything else today, please watch the video linked below.

5. An Evening I Will Not Forget- Dermot Kennedy

Passionate and tragic. One person in the comments section of the music video for this song says: "The progression of the song and it's mood makes it very surreal."

6. Emmylou- Vance Joy

This songs makes you feel that strange happiness/sorrow mixture of emotion. "You are loved, you are loved, you are loved, you are loved,"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GmC1_Z4Bx-s

7. Second Chances- Gregory Alan Isakov

I never pick up those free iTunes downloads at Starbucks, but I’m glad I did this one time.

8. In a Week- Hozier ft. Karen Cowley

The most beautiful duet about love and death there ever was. I saw Hozier perform this song live when I was in my deepest bout of depression. It's morbid, romantic, and terrifying. How they make the process of death sound so lovely, I'll never understand.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=egwkDB5ZzKI

9. Skinny Love- Bon Iver

The actual BEST break-up song, ever.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ssdgFoHLwnk

10. Blackbird- The Beatles

Because this song encourages me to keep going.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mo_DMGc2v5o

11. Sweet Disposition- The Temper Trap

If you’ve read “The Perks of Being a Wallflower” you will remember the word “infinite” being described as something you feel. To me, this song is what infinity feels like.

I will be making each month's list into playlists on Spotify. Enjoy!

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
