The Top Five Songs For The Season
Sarah McKalip

So it's the Christmas season, and you're finally ready to start listening to Christmas music, but it's past Thanksgiving and you need to get into the holiday spirit. I have a wide variety of favorite Christmas songs but these are my top five favorite songs, I am not huge on Christmas music but there are some songs that I dance and sing to every single time they ever come on. So whether or not you're into Christmas music or not, you should check out this list and see if you can dig it!

It's still the Christmas season and it's time to get into the spirit of the holidays, so dance and sing because we have much to be grateful for!

1. "O Holy Night"

I love this song, because the message is the real reason for the season and every season. God came to save us and the song is just really beautiful. The melodies are so strong. This song is a classic that everyone needs to add to their playlist.

2. "Mary Did You Know"

This song is a classic, I feel like everyone knows this song and it gets to everyone and gets the emotions going. This is a beautiful song about real love and the meaning for the season.

3. "Silent Night"

Can we really go through the Christmas season without listening to this one? The night before Christmas I always listen to this song, it reminds me why we celebrate this season and every season!

4. "Silver Bells"

I love this song, something about it just makes me feel Christmas-y, I love how it gets me in the spirit for the holidays and the gatherings of the season. It makes me dream of Christmas lights and how beautiful things become this time of year.

5. "Joy to the World"

What song is more joyful than this one? I mean it's in the title. I can't go a Christmas season but this one makes me want to get up and dance every time. God gives us joy and this song reminds me of that joy and makes me super excited!

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.

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.
