Spotify is a popular go-to for any music lover these days, and for good reason. It has playlists for every vibe you can think of, and signing up for a basic account is free. This list has you covered for the common moods that tend to strike when you just want to find some jams that fit your feelings.
1. Pregame Pumped
No one wants to pregame before going to a party or Phil’s in silence. Where’s the fun in that? Blare this track-list that features the best beats to get you pumped for a night out. Listen to it here!
2. Bummed Out Babe
Having a hard day (or week) can be made a little easier sometimes when you’re listening to something that can boost your bummed out mood. Instead of sobbing into a glass(es) of wine, listening to Adele sing about her heartache, try turning this playlist up to make your mood a little bit brighter. Listen to it here!
3. Slay, Girl, Slay Â
Your eyeliner is sharp enough to cut rock, you’re feeling fierce as heck in that new outfit you just bought, or you just feel damn good in your comfy pyjama pants and you want to flaunt it. Strut your flawless *ss around the room and own it to these tunes. Listen to it here!
4. Zzzs
You’re lying in bed, wide awake. You’re calculating the exact hours, minutes, and seconds of sleep you would get if you fell asleep right now. That one embarrassing thing you did three years ago comes back to haunt you. What if that shadow in your room is actually a serial killer? Put this on when your brain won’t shut up and you just want to get some shut-eye. Listen to it here!
5. On the Road Again
Travelling anywhere without some music on is never fun, especially if you use public transit. Distract yourself from the various oddities that may frequent the seats of the GRT around you and ignore that odd “musty” smell that hangs in the bus air with these songs. Listen to it here!
6. Get Your Study On
Studying with different distractions around you is never a good thing. Absolute silence, however, can somehow seem even more deafening than if you sat right down in the middle of Starbucks at 12pm. If you need to fill that crushing void of quiet on the library’s 7th floor with something simple, put your headphones on and try this playlist. Listen to it here!
7. Good Morning, Sunshine
If you’re one of those rare people that can easily wake up in the morning, you’re likely feared and envied by everyone around you. If you’re like the rest of the population, though, waking up in the morning (especially for that 8:30am class) can make you feel like you’re on The Walking Dead. Luckily, these tunes should help you perk up a little bit more, even before that first desperate cup of coffee hits your system. Listen to it here!
8. Do You Even Lift?
Whether you love it (how?) or you hate it (understandable), working out is one of those necessary things you should be doing to stay healthy. If you’re pounding it out on the treadmill, or swinging those weights around like there’s no tomorrow, an appropriately energized playlist is key. Listen to it here!
