Music Genres That Are Great Driving Soundtracks
There's something about cruising in the summertime that just makes you feel alive - even if you're just commuting to work. The right car can make any journey good, but if you really want to get the best that driving has to offer, you're going to need the right soundtrack for your roadtrip.

Obscure Genres of Electronica You Need To Listen To
If you ask me, there aren't many genres of music that can deliver as wide a range of emotion as electronica. In some ways, electronic music is more akin to a modern day symphony. The only differences between old school symphonies and modern electric music are the number of people who create the music and the technology used to make it happen.

15 Day Song Challenge Part 2
Day 1 - A song that you used to love but now hate I loved this song when it first came out in the 90's, but after purchasing the album I realized there were much better songs on it. This song was overplayed on MTV and on the radio. For awhile there it was like I could not escape this song.

Prince, for the Uninitiated, OR 'The Origins of Being an Obsessive Prince-Fan!'
In Art class one morning, one of the cool kids put on a Prince tape, not knowing that this small act would shape my music preferences for life. Art was a double period on a Friday, and it was unlike any of the other classes, for one you could play music, and for two the teachers treated you like equals, they were really cool mannnn. One teacher in particular Alison (you could call them by their first names wow!) I even unintentionally got into some bother, she’d shared with me that one of the other teachers had bought a video recorder and she’d found his lack of know-how in using it particularly humorous. She’d asked us not to mention it to anyone, but of course we teased him on it and he was completely perplexed at how we knew this piece of what he thought was confidential detail. When we relayed to Alison how funny it was that Mr Blake was mystified, she felt guilty and then felt the need to explain to Mr Blake that she’d told us about his video, and then I think she may have regretted trusting her class of 14 year olds after all, but it didn’t seem to change anything in Art… Art remained the home of creativity, where anything went, you could be a human being, you didn’t even have to wear your school tie.

10 Best Sad Love Songs
The list below contains the Top 10 Best Sad Love Songs. This list is based on research and on my own personal opinions. This song was written by Adele and Dan Wilson. It is the second single and final song on her “21” album. This song is Adele’s first number one single in the UK and it stayed at number one for five weeks. This song also was Adele’s second song to hit number one in the USA. This song is about the end of a relationship with her ex-boyfriend. The words are haunting. “I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited. But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it. I had hoped you'd see my face and that you'd be reminded that for me it isn't over.”
