I Am Strong
**Disclaimer:** The song featured in this post was created with the help of AI tools. These tools provided the instrumental and vocal elements, while I wrote the lyrics and developed very concise and intricate prompts as guides in both the lyrics and prompts fields. This process gave the song its unique and layered depth. The melody is a blend of the rhythm conceived from my lyrics and the output from the AI tools, resulting in the final composition.

Mon Rovîa Teaches Us How To Be Still
A song is worth the listen if it has an emotional impact; The music gets you going, out of a funk, or pulls you into another world entirely. Perhaps that’s why we make playlists of songs with similar vibes: to recreate a specific mood with music. Sometimes, a snappy beat is enough to hook a listener's attention, and it can often be angelic vocals that keep pulling you in.

Why One X is Three Days Graces' Magnum Opus
Introduction: The Emotional Resonsance of My Childhood I remember my first encounter with Three Days Grace well. I was only 9 at the time and had no idea the profound impact the day I spent with my cousin would have on my life. We were in the garage talking to my uncle as he worked on some car-related task. The paint-splattered boom box playing a CD I first mistook for a generic rock group. It was the One X CD which had just come out earlier that year.

Oasis Come to Save Us?
Alright R'kid so are we gonna talk about this big Oasis announcement, and potential reunion or what? A lot of people are speculating as to why this is happening, is it because of Noel's expensive divorce, but I like to think that two brothers who just missed each other decided to pick up the phone and sort things out, but however it came about don't look a gift horse in the mouth!

"Avamarie’s ‘Honey Remix’: A Fresh Summer Anthem for Rekindling Love"
Avamarie’s latest release, "Honey Remix," offers a vibrant and refreshing reinterpretation of her original hit "Honey," breathing new life into a track that resonated deeply with fans. While the original song delved into the complexities of a strained relationship, this remix brings a fresh perspective, exploring how to infuse sweetness back into situations that have become challenging or tense. The original "Honey" was born out of a difficult period in Avamarie’s life, a time when she was grappling with the complexities of a relationship that held deep meaning for her. Rather than walk away, she made the conscious choice to find a way to make it work, recognizing that sometimes a fresh approach is needed to breathe new life into a relationship, even when it is far from perfect.

An End Of Summer Playlist
Another summer is closing up, I’ve been thinking of the songs that make me think of summer. Personally, I love summer as much I complain about it’s heatwaves. I don’t regret any of the summers I’ve had wether they were bad or good. Every summer I create a playlist, some of these are the songs I’ve listened to all my life and some are new additions I picked up from my other summers.
