The Chainsmokers "Memories...Do Not Open" Album's Songs Ranked
Genius

When they released their hit single "Selfie", no one ever thought that The Chainsmokers would be able to produce serious music. The line, "But first, let me take a selfie," became every basic Instagram girl's selfie caption and continues to be parodied today. It wasn't until they released their platinum single "Closer" featuring Halsey over the summer of 2016 that their true musical talent was exposed. Anywhere you went you could hear "Closer" blaring on the airwaves for a majority of the summer. Soon fall came and "Closer" was starting to seem like another summer one hit wonder...and then "Paris" dropped. When "Paris" dropped, it too, got all the airplay on the radio with a special announcement that their first album wasn't too far behind. On April 7th, "Memories...Do Not Open" was released making all their fans scramble to download the much-anticipated album. Now that it has been out for a week now, here is a review of each of the songs on the album as well as the best lyrics.

All in all, I absolutely love this album. It is packed full of deep emotional lyrics with fun EDM vibes. If you're going through a break up, have a complicated relationship, or just have been in a relationship in general, the songs on this album can speak to those moments. From these songs, The Chainsmokers proved that they are much more than goofy DJ's, they actually can tap into some deep feelings we all experience. So plug in your headphones, head to iTunes to buy The Chainsmokers new album, and enjoy these sweet beats and lyrics.

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.
