Take a Listen: May 2025

Welcome to our monthly series, where we explore the music tastes of our staff.

I love it because the lyrics feel so mythological and mermaid-like while the beat makes you want to dance. It’s an uplifting song and one that’s great to jam out to in the car.

~Alyssa

His voice is smooth like butter.

~Dawn S.

I enjoy this song because it is light hearted, lifting my spirits and grounding me to the present moment. It’s like a mini vacation for my mind.

~Tabbitha

It’s been final paper, after final paper, after final paper for me recently so I have been listening to a lot of classical music while I study. My favorite at the moment is Camille Saint-Saens, “Le Carnaval des animaux” in particular I love The Swan but all 14 movements are beautiful.

~Maycie

Maycie & I listen to this almost every Saturday. Going through the motions of the album is moving.

~Megan

It’s always been my favorite, it takes you back to the good old days, when life was so good.

~Kristy H.

I had to pick one off of Ghost’s new album. I have been a fan for years. I like the sound of this whole album, it feels nostalgic and new all at the same time. As always with Ghost, the lyrics say more than you get with just one listen.

~Shane

Stevie Nicks just has a way of singing directly to the soul. Her passion in the live version is so intense and captivating, it’s a hard song to not enjoy.

~Emily B.

Happy listening!

Welcome to our monthly series, where we explore the music tastes of our staff.

A new favorite album of mine is “The Stranger” by Billy Joel. It’s so beautiful and relaxing and honestly perfect! 

~Maycie

I love the ocean, and this song reminds me of the soothing waves.

~Alyssa

I like this song because it has funky, melodic bass music and is very unique.

~Tabbitha

Another weird song from a weird band that I can’t get enough of. Vibing with the love them for Valentine’s Day. The music video is especially odd, I warned you.

~Shane

It has a somber and ghostly quality to it that just hits the right way.

~Justin

Just makes me want to dance no matter where I’m at or what I’m doing.

~Megan

Happy listening!

I am a big music person typically and I have A LOT of favorites. After seeing them in concert earlier this year my current favorite song would be “Down Below” by Creeper.

Maycie

I’ve been listening to Post Malone’s F-1 Trillion album!

-Jessie

I’m currently enjoying the new “Wicked” soundtrack.

Everything (acoustic version) by Stereo Fuse. I like the acoustic version because it gets rid of the unnecessary stuff in the background. 

Justin

Before Christmas music became the go to in December, I consistently would have Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour playlist on Amazon playing.

Ashley

I’ve been listening to Tamino, Hozier and “Lonely Boy” by The Black Keys. –Trinity

I came across MUNA as I was listening to YouTube music on shuffle, and I liked the vibe.
