"Ghost" by Justin Bieber

When my grandma passed away in 2021, "Ghost" by Justin Bieber became my song. The moment I heard it, it felt like the lyrics were written for what I was going through. Losing her was one of the hardest things I’ve ever experienced, and this song brought all of those emotions to the surface—grief, longing, and the emptiness of not having her around anymore. The line “If I can’t be close to you, I’ll settle for the ghost of you” hit me hard. That’s exactly how it felt. She raised me, took care of me, and was such a huge part of my life. And suddenly, she was gone. I couldn’t be with her, couldn’t feel her physical presence anymore, but the memories we shared stayed with me. I found myself clinging to those memories, to the “ghost” of her in everything I did. Every time I played this song, it brought me a mix of comfort and heartache. I would remember the warmth of her love, but it also reminded me of the void her absence left behind. Music has a way of expressing the things we...

Lauv's "The Other,"

Image
When I first heard Lauv's "The Other," it was like someone had taken my inner conflict and turned it into a song.  The line, “When there’s nothing quite wrong, but it don’t feel right either your head or your heart, you set the other on fire,” hit me like a ton of bricks.  It perfectly described the emotional whirlwind I was going through. There wasn’t anything clearly wrong in my life or my relationships at the time, but something just felt off, and I couldn’t figure it out. I’ve been in that place where my head and heart were constantly at war. You try to convince yourself that everything is fine, that you should be happy with what you have.

Lauv captures that emotional tug-of-war, where no matter which side you lean toward, you end up hurting one part of yourself. The Oth...

"Happy Now" by Kygo

 When I first listened to "Happy Now" by Kygo, it instantly resonated with me. I had just gone through a confusing and emotional time in my life.  I was in a relationship with a great guy, but out of nowhere, I started falling out of love. It wasn’t that anything was wrong—he was wonderful—but I found myself drawn to someone else, though deep down, I wasn’t even sure if I truly liked them. Letting go of both was incredibly painful, but I knew it was the right decision for everyone involved. "Happy Now" became a healing anthem for me during that time.  The song gave me the strength to cope with the heartbreak and confusion, reminding me that moving on was the only way to find peace again.  It helped me come to terms with the fact that sometimes, even the hardest decisions lead to something better, and though it hurt, it was the beginning of my journey to being truly happy.

  Reliving My Childhood: The Moffatts Concert in Manila There’s something special about reconnecting with the music that defined your youth, and for me, The Moffatts were a huge part of that. They were my childhood crush, and when I found out they were performing in Manila, I knew I couldn’t miss the chance to see them live. The concert turned out to be more than just a trip down memory lane—it was a night of nostalgia, excitement, and emotion that reminded me why I fell in love with their music all those years ago.  Anticipation and Excitement As the concert date approached, I couldn’t help but feel like a teenager again. The Moffatts had always held a special place in my heart, and the idea of seeing them live, all these years later, felt surreal. I spent the days leading up to the show re-listening to all my favorite tracks—"Miss You Like Crazy," "I'll Be There For You," and "Girl of My Dreams." Each song brought back memories of the days I would da...
