Songs I Think are Worth a Listen

Music speaks to me. I've always had something inside of me that knows good music when I hear it and now I use it to make great playlists on Spotify. Music is one of the simple pleasures in my life. I listen to it often because it can affect your mood and how you view the world for that moment.

I have a wide rage of music I listen to. I have been influenced by family, friends, teachers and even strangers. There are many reasons why I like a song, because of a memory, a friend, a loss, a love and much more. Don't be surprised when this list goes through many different decades and genres.

Without further ado here are some of my favorite songs that I think everyone should give a chance.

The Bittersweet Symphony by The Verve

"Cause it's a bittersweet symphony this life / Trying to make ends meet, you're a slave to the money then you die"

Hometown by Twenty One Pilots

"Where we're from / There's no sun / Our hometown's in the dark"

Pursuit of Happiness (Nightmare) by Kid Cudi

I'm on the pursuit of happiness and I know everything that shine ain't always gonna be gold / hey I'll be fine once I get it / yeah I'll be good.

Edge of Seventeen by Stevie Nicks

"Just like the white winged dove / Sings a song / Sounds like she's singing"

Fix You by Coldplay

"Lights will guide you home / And ignite your bones / And I will try to fix you"

Alright Now by Free

There she stood in the street / Smilin' from her head to her feet;I said, "Hey, what is this?

Feel so Close by Calvin Harris

"I feel so close to you right now / It's a force feel / I wear my heart upon my sleeve, like a big deal"

Red Ragtop by Tim McGraw

"I was twenty and she was eighteen / We were just about as wild as we were green / In the ways of the world"

The Downfall of Us All by A Day to Remember

It's not easy making a name for yourself / Where do you draw the line? / I never thought I'd be in this far / Let's have fun some and never change that for anyone

Ain't Nothing 'Bout You by Brooks and Dunn

"The way you look, the way you laugh, / The way you love with all you have, / There ain't nothing 'bout you that don't do something for me"

Another Heart Calls by The All-American Rejects

"Just as soon as I see you / But didn't I, but didn't I tell you / As deep as I need you, / You wanna leave it all"

Funeral for a Friend/Love Lies Bleeding by Elton John

"And love lies bleeding in my hand / Oh it kills me to think of you with another man / I was playing rock and roll and you were just a fan"

Kashmir by Led Zeppelin

"Oh, let the sun beat down upon my face / And stars fill my dream / I'm a traveler of both time and space"

Living Dead Girl by Rob Zombie

"Crawl on me / Sink into me / Die for me / Living dead girl"

Feeling This by blink-183

"Fate fell short this time / Your smile fades in the summer / Place your hand in mine / I'll leave when I wanna"

Every Storm by Gary Allan

"I saw you standing in the middle of the thunder and lightning / I know you're feeling like you just can't win, but you're trying"

Forth of July (remix) by Fall Out Boy Ft. OG Maco

It was the fourth of July / You and I were, you and I were fire, fire, fireworks / That went off too soon"

20 Dollar by M.I.A.

"With your feet on the air and your head on the ground / Try this trick and spin it, yeah / Your head'll collapse when there's nothing in it / And you'll ask yourself / Where is my mind"

Riot Maker by Tech N9ne

"RIOT MAKER! And I come out bustin... I'm a.. / RIOT MAKER! RIOT MAKER! I don't give a damn about nothing!"

Hide and Seek by Imogen Heap

"Mm, that it's just what we need? / And you decided this. / What you say? / Mmm, what did She say?"

VICTIM by WIN WIN

"Hocus pocus.../ Time is now then did you notice / You've got your problems goverment / Be careful lot of punishment"

For What it is Worth by Buffalo Springfield

"There's something happening here / What it is ain't exactly clear / There's a man with a gun over there / Telling me I got to beware"

Buzzkill by Intuition

"Ain't seen it all but I think I've seen enough / Still basically hated, jaded, acting like a buzzkill"

Set The Fire To The Third Bar by Snow Patrol

"I find the map and draw a straight line / Over rivers, farms, and state lines / The distance from 'here' to where you'd be / It's only finger-lengths that I see"

'Till I Collapse by Eminem

"Till the roof comes off, till the lights go out / Till my legs give out, can't shut my mouth"

As you can tell I really enjoy music and I would keep going if I could. Now it's your turn, go out and jam.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

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.
