My Top 10 Broadway Musicals.

Everyone loves a good musical every now and then. Musicals have a way of bringing you into a whole new world. A world where people burst out into song in the middle of talking to someone. It also brings you away from the harsh reality we live in. If you ask everyone what their top Broadway musicals are, everyone will have a different order. That's what so great about it. There are different Broadway musical for everyone. So here is my list of my favorite Broadway musicals in no particular order.

1. Wicked.


I believe that everyone needs to see Wicked, especially if you are a fan of Wizard of OZ. This play will change the way you see the Wizard of Oz. The music alone is by far one of the best soundtracks in all Broadway history. This play isn't just for people who love Broadway, this play is for everyone and anyone.

2. Beauty and the Beast.

Beauty and the Beast was an amazing movie, but the play was even better. Just seeing everything come to life on an actual stage was pretty amazing. Even though I saw it when I was younger, I still remember how great the scenes were.

3. The Producers.

Even though I never actually saw this musical, I was apart of it in High School. I love this musical because the music is great and the scenes are hysterical. When performing in this, I don't think I heard the audience not laugh at anything.

4. Hairspray.

Hairspray is one of those plays that you always have to sing along. The music from the musicals is one of the catchiest soundtracks ever. Every song makes you want to get up and dance with Tracy. Also the story line is very moving since Tracy makes a bold move that makes it so much better.

5. Mamma Mia!

This story line is so great because all through out the musical you want to know who the dad is, and which guy will the mom fall in love with again. The soundtrack to this is also very catchy and just makes people feel good.

6. Kinky Boots.

I just saw this play recently, and I have nothing bad to say about it. This play brought an attention to the LGBTQ+ community. It brought the right attention to the community. This play is the voice that Drag Queen's need in our society. Plus the music is just so feel good, and you can't go wrong with this soundtrack.

7. Legally Blonde.

This musical is just so fun not to love. It also shows that women can do anything that men can do. This musical will have you laughing pretty much non stop from the time the show starts to when it end.

8. Rent.

Rent is by far one of the most known musicals known to date. Everyone has heard of Rent even if they don't like Broadway. Rent also brings attention to the LGBTQ+ community in a good way. It brings attention to how AIDS can have an effect on everyone. The music in this musical is amazing, everyone knows at least a song from the musical.

9. Aladdin.

Seeing this musical was amazing because it brought to life the amazing story of Aladdin. Seeing the magic carpet come to life on stage was just breathe taking. The genie was just so funny and made the crowd laugh every time he came on stage.

10. Finding Neverland.

This musical made pretty much every one who saw it, cry. Not because it was bad, but because it was so good! The soundtrack is just amazing. The musical is amazing because it shows how the story of Peter Pan came to life. Although it does have a sad part, that's what makes it better. It makes it a little more realistic. Also seeing how they fly across the stage is amazing.

If you haven't seen any of these musicals, or heard any of their soundtracks, I highly recommend you listen or see it. I promise you won't be disappointed.

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.

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.
