The Most Under-Rated Christmas Music

From the beginning of November to January all we can hear is Christmas music, but we constantly hear the same people and the same songs by a couple of different artist! Changing up what you listen to during this season will lessen the chance of being sick of Christmas by the end of December!

1. Carol of the Bells-Destiny's Child

Not only is this song under-rated, but Destiny's Child whole Christmas album is a gift from the Gods but never gets that much love! The Knowles sisters kill it in this album with giving their own twist to Carol of the Bells that makes it so unique and unlike any other.

2. Christmas Time-Christina Aguilera

Christina brings her own style to this Christmas song, making it fun to listen to and easy to dance to! She really brought something to Christmas music that many artist would be intimidated by for these traditional songs.

3. With It This Christmas-Ariana Grande

Changing from the same songs that many artists cover, Ariana Grande wrote her own Christmas songs and gave the audience something new to listen to, making her Christmas album different from everyone else's. This song references all the songs that we love but in a new form.

4. Christmas Lights-Coldplay

This song can bring you to tears just as much as Christmas Shoes, but does not get half the credit! This song really gives you all the Christmas feels.

5. Jingle Bells(feat. The Puppini Sisters)-Michael Bublé

Although, Michael Bublé has one of the most iconic Christmas albums in history, this song never gets as much credit as it deserves. Not only does Michael Bublé do an amazing in this song, but the Puppini Sisters are really the star of this song, making it joyful to listen to.

6. Driving Home for Christmas-Gavin James

This song really helps you out if you do live away from you family and are about to see them for the holidays. It brings you into the spirit and gives the excitement of family seeing your family after a long year.

These under-rated Christmas songs can really help you get through this season filled with family and fun! Happy Holidays!!

AI music threatens creativity

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.

We are all more than just one sign.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
