Top 10 Best Christmas Songs

Christmas is drawing near and neighborhood families have already begun hanging their lights. Thanksgiving has come to an end so it is time to crack open your old Christmas albums (or just open Spotify) and blast "Jingle Bells." I have compiled a list of my top 10 favorite Christmas songs to simplify your playlist making.

10.) "Jingle Bell Rock" - Bobby Helms || Mean Girls brought this song back, am I right? "Jingle Bell Rock" is perfect for decorating the Christmas tree or dancing to at a party!

9.) "Let It Snow" - Bing Crosby || This is one of two Bing songs on this list because there is no Christmas without Bing Crosby!

8.) "It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year" - Andy Williams || Everyone can belt out the lyrics to this one because it's a classic Christmas tune. Once the first flake of snow hits the ground, this song shows up on every radio station.

7.) "The Christmas Song" - Nat King Cole || Yet another classic. Light a fire, make some cocoa, turn this song up and let the nostalgia kick in.

6.) "The Christmas Shoes" - Newsong || Listen to this song and try not to cry--I dare you.

5.) "Blue Christmas" - Elvis Presley || This is another great song for decorating the tree! Make all your friends and family jealous by showing off your greatest Elvis impersonation.

4.) "I'll Be Home For Christmas" - Josh Groban || Josh Groban is one more Christmas staple. I love this version of the song because his voice is so smooth!

3.) "Santa Baby" - Eartha Kitt || Do not make the mistake of listening to the Madonna version because you will never get those minutes of your life back. Eartha is perfect and (in my opinion) has the best version of the song.

2.)"Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)" - Michael Bublé || His entire Christmas is album is basically on repeat at all times between December 1st through December 25th.

1.) "White Christmas" - Bing Crosby || The other Bing song on this list. This is my absolute favorite song for the holiday and it's obvious why.

I wish everyone a merry Christmas and happy holidays!

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

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.

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.
