Top 10 Songs From 'Crazy Ex-Girlfriend'
TVTropes.org

In case you didn't already know, "Crazy Ex-Girlfriend" should be your favorite TV show. Rebecca Bunch is a miserable lawyer in New York, until she runs into her old boyfriend, Josh Chan, who she never really got over. So, she decides to uproot her life and move to his hometown or West Covina, California, though she'll never admit that Josh was the cause. The show is funny and well done, and to top it all off, it's a musical. Each song is as humorous and quirky as the last, and they all come from different genres. Season two is going to air on the CW in a few months, so I thought this would be the perfect time to share what I think are the top ten songs from the show.

10. "I’m In A Sexy French Depression"

Rebecca tackles the romanticization of depression in this black-and-white solo.

"Je suis garbage!"

9. "I’m So Good At Yoga"


Josh's girlfriend Valencia's first song is a slap in the face to Rebecca, who struggles to manage even a downward dog.

"I do stuff with my body that no human should be able to do, like putting my face behind my knees, turning my hand into a shoe!"

8. "The Sexy Getting Ready Song"

Every girl will relate to this song. Every. Single. One. The title is pretty self-explanatory.

"You know what? I got to go apologize to some b******. I'm forever changed after what I just seen."

7. "I’m The Villain In My Own Story"

Everyone has that moment when they realize they've been, well, a huge jerk. This is Rebecca's, and it comes complete with her reflection turning green and a cage for Valencia.

"We're told love conquers all, but that only applies to the hero."

6. "Oh My God, I Think I Like You"

This delightfully upbeat NSFW song perfectly captures that moment when you realize you've "caught the feels" for your FWB.

"Is there an IUD that can stop the image of you and me?"

5. "Settle For Me"

Josh's friend Greg, aka Broadway superstar Santino Fontana, got his chance to shine with this black-and-white number intended to woo Rebecca into forgetting Josh and settling for Greg.

"Like 2 percent milk, or seitan beef, I almost taste the same!"

4. "Gettin’ Bi"

Rebecca and Paula's boss, Darryl, gets to rock out after struggling with his sexuality and finally deciding to come out at the office. He also demolishes some stereotypes while he's at it!

"It's not a phase, I’m not confused, not indecisive, I don’t have the “gotta choose” blues!"

3. "West Covina"

This is the first number from the show, a Broadway-worthy showstopper that has Rebecca moving from New York to California and exploring all it has to offer.

"Look everyone, stop giving me the shakedown, I am not having a nervous--"

2. "After Everything I’ve Done for You (That You Didn’t Ask For)"

Rebecca's BFF Paula gets her the showstopper she deserves in order to scold Rebecca for lying to her and giving up on Josh.

"I blackmailed Valencia's boss so now I control when she teaches! That's right!

I make all the Yoga class schedules! There's no limit to where my reach is!"

1. "You Stupid Bitch"


This song is absolutely hilarious. Rachel Bloom (who plays Rebecca) deserves an Emmy for being able to sing this with a straight face. It's also the perfect self-pity song.

"Now he knows I'm not some innocent lamb, he sees me for what I am!"

All of the songs from season one are available on iTunes, and you should defintely check them out. Unless you have something against brilliance and humor, then stay away.

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.
