Listen: Elyanna 

Elyanna is a Palestinian-Chilean singer that has been making her way up the charts globally with her genre defying music. She was the first performer to ever sing in Arabic at Coachella in 2023 and has since continued to go beyond boundaries and effortlessly blend multiple genres and styles to create her unique sound. The first song of Elyanna’s that caught my attention is called “Ghareeb Alay” from her 2022 album. Two weeks ago, Elyanna released her most recent album, WOLEDTO which you can listen to here on Spotify, Apple Music or YouTube.

Watch: Amélie 

An oldie but a goodie—Enjoy the whimsical charm of Amélie, a 2001 French romantic comedy directed by Jean-Pierre Jeunet. The film follows the journey of Amélie Poulain, a shy and imaginative young woman who sets out to bring happiness to those around her in Paris and help fix their lives. With its fun visuals, quirky characters and charming soundtrack from Yann Tiersen, this beloved film is sure to capture your heart. Watch Amélie here on Amazon Prime Video or Apple TV+.
