"We Can't Stop" by Miley Cyrus has been stuck in my head for a moment. To relieve the stress of the song-bug in my ear, I played the song one more time before I went to bed. I woke up the next morning still singing the tune. What's wrong with me? I saw the trashy video of "We Can't Stop" weeks ago, and the video itself turn me away from the song. Okay- Maybe if I hear the song one last time, I'll be over it for sure. However, I wasn't over the song, I soon realized the terrible revelation. I like the song! But how can I like a song by Miley Cyrus? I'm sure there is some sort of explanation. It's a sad day when I like a trashy dance song that talks about "Molly." Well I have to go, I will listen to "We Can't Stop", one last time... I hope. Save me!

When I began listening to K-Pop, 2ne1 was my favorite girl group. I eventually started liking other groups as well. One group that I stumbled upon was Brown Eyed Girls. I really started listening to them after Psy's video "Gentleman" because Ga-in, one of the members, appeared in the video. One song that I'm still loving from them is "Abracadabra." I have been eagerly waiting for their comeback single after listening to their older music. "Recipe" is their newest single, and Miryo's rapping in the song is amazing! Her voice is like no other. The beat to the song is very smooth and sounds similar to a 70s disco hit with a modern twist. After reading the English lyrics to the song, I think the song is about a woman pleasing a man. Think of it as a Destiny's Child "Cater 2 You" type of song. I also believe the song is about allowing a man to open up more and the only way of doing this is by showing love and catering to him. I posted a video with the English lyrics to see your take of the song's meaning.
Ever since seeing the preview for After Earth, I knew it was going to be one summer blockbuster that I didn't want to miss. The movie stars father son duo Jaden and Will smith in the future were humans have immigrated to a new planet called Nova Prime. On this new adopted home, there are aliens called ursa that can smell the secretions caused by fear meaning that they can literally see fear. It was almost impossible to fight against them until a man named Cypher Raige(Will Smith) mastered a technique called ghosting, or masking fear, making you invisible to the enemy.
