Billboard

Taylor Swift's new album Reputation has made a serious stance in the first week after its release, setting records, and fostering discussion about Taylor's new music. In honor of her new beautifully written album, I decided to take a trip down memory lane and look at some of her older, yet timeless, songs.

1. Taylor Swift (Self-Titled Album) (2006)

Tim McGraw

Favorite Lyrics: "When you think happiness, I hope you think that little black dress, Think of my head on your chest And my old faded blue jeans"


Mary's Song (Oh My My My)

Favorite Lyrics: "I'll be eighty-seven; you'll be eighty-nine, I'll still look at you like the stars that shine"

2. Fearless (2008)

White Horse

Favorite Lyrics: "This ain't Hollywood, this is a small town, I was a dreamer before you went and let me down"

The Way I Loved You

Favorite Lyrics: "But I miss screaming and fighting and kissing in the rain, And it's 2am and I'm cursing your name, You're so in love that you act insane"


3. Speak Now (2010)

Sparks Fly

Favorite Lyrics: "I'm on my guard for the rest of the world, But with you I know it's no good"


Enchanted

Favorite Lyrics: "The playful conversation starts, Counter all your quick remarks, Like passing notes in secrecy"


4. Red (2012)

All Too Well

Favorite Lyrics: "But you keep my old scarf from that very first week, 'Cause it reminds you of innocence and it smells like me"


Red

Favorite Lyrics: "Memorizing him was as easy as knowing all the words to your old favorite song; Fighting with him was like trying to solve a crossword and realizing there's no right answer"


5. 1989 (2014)

Wildest Dreams

Favorite Lyrics: "You'll see me in hindsight,Tangled up with you all night, Burning it down"


New Romantics

Favorite Lyrics: "'Cause, baby, I could build a castle Out of all the bricks they threw at me; And every day is like a battle But every night with us is like a dream"

6. Reputation (2017)

Getaway Car

Favorite Lyrics: "The ties were black, the lies were white, The shades of grey in candlelight; I wanted to leave him, I needed a reason"


New Year's Day

Favorite Lyrics: "I want your midnights, But I'll be cleaning up bottles with you on New Year's Day"

AI music threatens creativity

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

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.
