As told by a music junkie.

The Top 15 Songs Of 2015

When I think of all of the amazing things that 2015 brought my way, I can't help but think of the amazing songs of the year. I've always been a music junkie. So without further ado, here are my top picks for 2015.

15. "Hello" - Adele

</p>

What's not to like about Adele's comeback song?

Favorite Line: "At least I can say that I've tried to tell you I'm sorry for breaking your heart, but it don't matter it clearly doesn't tear you apart anymore."

14. "Polar Paradise" - Landon Austin

</p>

Landon Austin has long been a favorite artist of mine. I even saw him live in Salt Lake City in 2013. While I happen to like a lot of his music, "Polar Paradise" has a retro pop sound to it, which is new for Austin. And let me be the one to say, it works.

Favorite Line: "We don't need the sin, we got endless nights."

13. "Lean On" - Major Lazer & DJ Snake ft. M0

</p>

Favorite Line: "All we need is somebody to lean on."

12. "Wildest Dreams" - Taylor Swift

</p>

I think this is Taylor Swift's best song from 1989, but maybe it's because it's softer pop, which is closer to her country roots.

Favorite Line: "He's so tall and handsome as hell. He's so bad but he does it so well."

11. "Ex's & Oh's" - Elle King

</p>

This song has a vibe that makes me think of the swing of the 1920s, but in a completely modern and 21st-century kind of way. It's really something special.

Favorite Line: "'Cause I'm the best baby that they never gotta keep."

10. "Sorry" - Justin Beiber

</p>

I didn't really like Justin Beiber until his "Purpose," but now I'm a total Belieber.

Favorite Line: "I know you know that I made those mistakes maybe once or twice. And by once or twice I mean maybe a couple of hundred times."

9. "Locked Away" - R. City ft. Adam Levine

</p>

Favorite Line: "Now tell me would you really ride for me? Baby tell me would you die for me? Would you spend your whole life with me?"

8. "Burning House" - Cam

</p>

I love the guitar rhythm for this song. It's so simple, which makes it catchy.

Favorite Line: "Love isn't all that it seems I did you wrong."

7. "See You Again" - Wiz Khalifa ft. Charlie Puth

</p>

What's not to like about a song dedicated to Paul Walker?

Favorite Line: "Everything I went through you were standing there by my side. And now you gonna be with me for the last ride."

6. "Stitches" - Shawn Mendes

</p>

This song is my favorite breakup song of all time. It is super catchy.

Favorite Line: "I thought that I'd been hurt before, but no one's ever left me quite this sore."

5. "Like I'm Gonna Lose You" - Meghan Trainor ft. John Legend

</p>

Meghan Trainor and John Legend sing such an amazing duet. I think I'd instantly fall for anyone who sang this song to me.

Favorite Line: "Like a scene from a movie that every broken heart knows."

4. "Confident" - Demi Lovato

</p>

Demi Lovato took on a whole new sound, and with this song, she most definitely exuded confidence.

Favorite Line: "I make my own choice. Yeah I run this show."

3. "Same Old Love" - Selena Gomez

</p>

Selena Gomez has grown up, and I can't help but like her new music. She is Bae.

Favorite Line: "You left in peace, left me in pieces."

2. "Irresistible" - Fall Out Boy ft. Demi Lovato

</p>

I'm not going to lie, this and all of Fall Out Boy's recent music is irresistible.

Favorite Line: "You're secondhand smoke, secondhand smoke. I breathe you in, but, honey, I don't know what you're doing to me, Mon chéri, but the truth catches up with us eventually."

1. "Love Yourself" - Justin Beiber

</p><span id="selection-marker-1" class="redactor-selection-marker" data-verified="redactor"></span>

This song, allegedly about Jayde Pierce, is the perfect way to tell an ex that it wasn't you, it was them, all them.

Favorite Line: "My mama don't like you and she like's everyone."

And four more Honorable Mention songs:

"Hotline Bling" - Drake

"Trap Queen" - Fetty Wap

"Downtime" - Kid Quill

"Hands to Myself" - Selena Gomez

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.
