In the editor’s rotation: We are so back
By Chloe Southard | February 2, 2025This might be my most out-of-sorts playlist yet, and that’s saying something coming from someone who once had 2Pac and Jeff Buckley in the same rotation.

This year marks the 50th anniversary of two albums I hold dear to my heart. Both “Born to Run” by Bruce Springsteen and “Blood on the Tracks” by Bob Dylan were released in 1975 and are two constants in my daily rotation.
Around 10:00 p.m. Eastern Standard Time on Jan. 18, the app went dark hours before the original ban date. But why did TikTok get banned in the first place, and how did it make a comeback?
2024 was a strong year for music, especially pop music. Artists like Chappell Roan, Sabrina Carpenter and Charli xcx were unavoidable. But this begs the question: Who’s going home with a Grammy?
With students returning to campus, one question is looming in the backs of everyone’s minds: How did you spend your Christmas day? Many will say, “spending time with family” or “nothing really; It was a normal day.” However, if you’re like me, you flocked to the theaters to watch Robert Eggers’ newest film, “Nosferatu.”
If you grew up anything like I did, Bob Dylan was a household name. His albums would be constantly spinning on my dad’s record player, and “Maggie’s Farm” remains stuck in my head, even now. As I got older, I never sought out to listen to Dylan on my own time. There’s so much other music out there — it’s almost as if his discography had slipped my mind. However, seeing “A Complete Unknown,” the 2024 Dylan biopic starring Timothée Chalamet, reminded me why I loved the musician in the first place, and revitalized my desire to listen to his music again as an adult.
Erivo and Grande deliver the performances of a lifetime, both giving it all to their roles and absolutely delivering. Supported by a strong cast all around, there isn’t a single weak performance in the film.
Here are the songs I’ve been bumping while begrudgingly completing assignment after assignment.
mxmtoon’s musical style blends indie pop and bedroom pop, characterized by an intimate, introspective vibe and relatable, conversational lyrics with singles like “feelings are fatal” and “prom dress.”
The theater was constantly erupting into screams, and at the times when the merch table was open, the line snaked all throughout the theater, winding around seats and the stage. Everyone wanted to get a “Dan and Phil made me Gay and all I got was this lousy T-Shirt” shirt, me included.
The album has a feel of retrospection. This vibe really hits me because this is a band I’ve been listening to since high school, and now I’m about to graduate college.
Here are the songs that kept me sane while I was self-isolating.
It’s no secret that the Marvel Cinematic Universe hasn’t been its strongest in recent years. With the exception of “Deadpool & Wolverine,” most projects have been poorly received by audiences. However, with the release of “Agatha All Along,” it’s clear that Marvel is finally making a comeback.
This film remains consistent in the themes of heroism, growth, identity, and legacy that the anime has explored up until this film.
“Brat and It's Completely Different but Also Still Brat” is an album that has introduced an entirely new fan base to club music, while also still catering to Charli’s established fan base.
These weekly mixes will include what’s in my current rotation. I like to think I have a pretty diverse taste in music, so there should be something for everyone.
With the release of “The Millicent Quibb School of Etiquette for Young Ladies of Mad Science,” the beloved comedian and actor has added another title to her resume: author of middle-grade literature.
On Sept. 27, Nicks released a solo single called “The Lighthouse.” Nicks said she wrote the song a few months after Roe v. Wade was overturned, and her way of responding was to write a song.
Between the songs on “Harlequin” and the way Gaga speaks about Lee, I think it’s fair to say that we can expect a more emotional and complex version of the character.
This was Carpenter’s first ever sold-out arena show, and she certainly expressed her gratitude more than a few times. At one point, she took out her earpiece to listen to how loud the crowd was, and she looked like she was about to cry. As special as the night was for the audience, it was just as special if not even more for her. Our girl has finally made it.
