OPOW: Odyssey at SOU Playlist of the Week 14-16 (Early Summer Edition)
Officially K Music

Welcome back to another OPOW, the playlist for students at SOU! This week's OPOW will focus on songs that have a summer feel before beginning of Summer. Some songs are old. Some songs are new. Overall, this playlist will brighten your break from finals. Here are this week's five songs!

K. Will "Bon Voyage (ft. Beenzino)”


Off from his 2013 album, Love Blossom, Korean singer K. Will croons with his song "Bon Voyage." "Bon Voyage" is about spending a sunny vacation with your lover. With the help of Korean rapper Beenzino, K.Will delivers a soothing and romantic song about spending time with someone you love.

The 1975 “The Sound”


From their sophomore album I like it when you sleep, for you are so beautiful yet so unaware of it, pop alternative band The 1975 returns with their third song "The Sound." "The Sound" is about the frontman Matty Healy falling for a girl and wanting to hear the sound of her heart beat. However, in reality, it is difficult to hear someone's heart and know their true self. This upbeat song gives a "pop" confidence, as Matt Healy described it during a BBC Radio1 interview. So if you want to "pop" your confidence, dance along to The 1975's "The Sound."

Halsey “Colors”


From her critically acclaimed album Badlands, singer Halsey graces YouTube and music scene again with her new song "Colors." "Colors" is about falling out of love with a lover and submerging from the color blue. This medium-slow song can be emotional when the lyrics point out the lover's addiction to pills. If you haven't been listening to Halsey, listen to "Colors" and be mesmerized by the color blue.

Aaliyah "I Don't Wanna"


From 1999 Next Friday soundtrack, R&B singer Aaliyah serenades her listeners with "I Don't Wanna." "I Don't Wanna" is a love song about missing a lover who left the relationship. Despite many arguments, she wants to be with him again. This seductive slow jam lights up the room, especially when you're with your lover.

Ariana Grande "Be Alright"


Featured in her upcoming album Dangerous Woman, Ariana Grande returns with her new song "Be Alright." Her latest single is about how even though she and her lover fight, she lets him know that everything is going to be alright as long as they stick together. This medium-upbeat song can lift you up and make you feel like you can do anything. "Be Alright" can easily be your next favorite song. I guarantee that. If you want to get this song, you can pre-order the single on iTunes. If you want the album, you can pre-order it as well until it releases on May 20.

Bonus Track:

f(x) "Hot Summer" (requested by Kevin of Facebook)


From their 2011 deluxe album Hot Summer, Korean girl group f(x) welcomes summer early with their song "Hot Summer." If you want to bring summer early, blast this song and dance like f(x).

Special thanks to Kevin of Facebook!

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.
