I Made A Playlist Out Of All The Times I Have Asked "Hey Siri, What's This Song?"

From old orchestral hits to 90s Christian pop tunes, Siri has helped me identify every piece in this playlist.

I Made A Playlist Out Of All The Times I Have Asked "Hey Siri, What's This Song?"
Elyssa Day

The day is just like any other. You're driving down the street and thinking about the week you have a head of you. Is that big test this week or next? When was the last time you vacuumed your floor? Did you remember to feed your fish today?

All of sudden, the radio spits out a new tune. What is this masterpiece? You've never heard it before! As you listen, you fall more and more in love with the chord choices and melodic arrangement.

You have no choice. You must download this beauty onto your music-playing device.

There's only one problem: you don't know what this is!

When faced with this situation, you follow one of three options: First, you could wait until the song is over and, if you're lucky, the DJ will announce the artist and title.

Second, you could also visit the homepage of the radio station and see if they have a playlist of everything played within the hour, but what if they don't have one or there are multiple unfamiliar songs listed?

The third option is to ask "Hey Siri, what's this song?" I use this ALL THE TIME and then screen-shot the convo with the intention of looking it up later and/or adding it to my iPhone. My photos are filled with screen-shot after screen-shot of songs I have saved and forgot about. If you don't have an iPhone, you can also use Shazam, which is the same company Siri uses to identify music.

Today, for the sake of music and my phone's memory storage, I am presenting a playlist of all the songs I have asked Siri to identify since the beginning of my phone's existence.

"Siri, what's this song?"

"Hmm...Let me listen."

1. "Day Like Today" by Out of Eden

2. "Capriccio Espagnol, Op. 34" by Felix Slatkin

3. "Nothing but the Blood feat. Deitrick Haddon" by Guvna B

4. "A Marshmellow World" by Seth MacFarlane

5. "How High The Moon" by Ella Fitzgerald

6. "Symphonie Sur Un Chant Montagnard Francais, Op. 25-1 Assez Lent Moderement-Anime" by Vincent D'Indy

7. "Spartacus Act II: Crassus and Aegina: Adagio" by Aram Il'yich Khachaturian

8. "Polovtsian March" by Alexander Borodin

9. "Colas Breugnon, Op. 24: Overture" by Fritz Reiner

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.
