Hey hey! (Please read that in a Babu Frik voice.) It’s time for the last of my 2019 favorites lists. And I’ve decided to end on one of my greatest loves— music. There’s been a lot of great music this year, so I’ve found a lot of albums to love. Unlike in past years, I’m [...]

Music of the Month: January 2019
January was a great month for music. This is going to be a long one, so buckle up. Songs “Boys Will Be Bugs” by Cavetown: This is a chill, laidback song about being a young teenage boy.

Backstreet’s Back, All Right!: A Review of “DNA” by Backstreet Boys
I grew up in a Backstreet Boys household. My mom listened to the Backstreet Boys, therefore I listened to the Backstreet Boys. I’m not well-versed enough with N*SYNC’s music (aside from their two biggest hits), so I don’t know if they’re truly the lesser boy band. But that’s what my biased heart says. Even so, [...]

Music of the Month: November 2018

Viva Las Vegas!
They say that whatever happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas. But they didn’t expect a girl with nothing going on her in life to walk the Strip. Besides, I came of age in the era of social media. Nothing is staying private for long. So it is with no qualms that I write this post. [...]
In Retrospect: The Backstreet Boys
I haven't mentioned this yet, but in October I'm going to Vegas!!! I've never been before and am so excited! While I'm there, I'll be seeing none other than the Backstreet Boys! So, I thought they'd be a good choice for my next In Retrospect post. Now, I know what you're thinking: "The Backstreet Boys [...]
FBF: The First Singers and Groups I Ever Loved
If you’ve learned anything about me over these last seven months, it’s that I’ve always loved books. Well, there’s something else I’ve loved just as long: music. Alas, aside from a brief year of piano lessons and half a semester of saxophone class, I have no skill for it. Regardless, music has always meant the [...]
