Why I Like “The Right One” by Sarah Reeves

Sarah Reeves has some songs I like and some songs I dislike, but I think “The Right One” is her best song. I really appreciate the candid advice she shares in it about not settling. Honestly, the fact that she got divorced in 2021 and remarried in 2024 (per Wikipedia) makes me wonder if she wrote it because she didn’t pick the right guy the first time. Maybe she doesn’t want other people to make the same mistake she did. All I know for sure is “The Right One” has the right message.

5 More Songs to Listen to This Thanksgiving

You might remember that I shared five song recommendations near Thanksgiving last year. Although there are lots of songs I could’ve included in that post, I opted to include just five. But I actually have five more song recommendations for you in this post, if you want to add them to your Thanksgiving playlist.

Why I Like “When You’re Gone” by Shawn Mendes

I’ve evaluated a few of Shawn Mendes’ songs—"Stiches" and "Treat You Better" and "There’s Nothing Holdin’ Me Back"—in prior posts. I’m not a big fan of those three songs because the lyrics are, well, somewhat questionable. But I don’t hate all of Shawn’s songs. In fact, we’re going to evaluate one today that has a great message.

Why I Like (and Don’t Like) “Healing” by Riley Clemmons

Riley Clemmons has been on the Christian music scene for several years. One of my favorite things about her music is the raw honesty of her lyrics, and “Healing” has this raw honesty. In my opinion, this song is underrated—but that’s why I’m sharing it with you. Overall, it’s a worthwhile addition to your playlist.

Why I Don’t Like “I Hope” by Gabby Barrett

“Thank God” and “The Good Ones” are a couple songs by Gabby Barrett that I really like. However, I’m not a fan of “I Hope.” The song’s lyrics—and Gabby’s tone while she sings them—reek of bitterness and contempt. Ironically, “I Hope” isn’t very hopeful at all.

Why I Like “Flowers” by Samantha Ebert

I recently heard a song called “Flowers” on a Christian radio station, and it’s one of the most beautiful songs I’ve heard. The music in it is amazing, but so are the lyrics. Samantha Ebert finds the balance between raw honesty and genuine hope. It almost feels like she wrote “Flowers” just for me—and maybe you’ll feel the same way after you listen to it.

Why I Don’t Like “The Truth” by Megan Woods

You might not be familiar with Megan Woods because she’s new to the Christian music industry, but her song “The Truth” has been playing on Christian radio stations recently. Although I don’t know much about her, I know her song “The Truth” has some issues. Most of the lyrics don’t bother me, but the chorus makes me cringe—and honestly, it should make all Christians cringe.
