12 Songs To Get You In The St. Patrick's Day Spirit

The Week

1. "The Parting Glass" - The High Kings

This is a traditional song done by my favorite Irish band. This will not be the last song by them on this list.

2. "Rambling Rover" - The Dubliners

Another traditional song, just a lot of fun.

3. "Finnegan's Wake" - Darby O'Gill

Very odd song. But still fantastic.

4. "The Wild Rover" - The High Kings

"And it's no nay never" *clap clap clap clap*

5. "Tell Me Ma" - Gaelic Storm

(or you can listen to The Wiggles' version but it scares me)

6. "Whiskey in the Jar" - The Dubliners

Another traditional song, well worth the listen.

7. "Rocky Road to Dublin" - Clancy Brothers and Tommy Makem

Another fun traditional song.

8. "I'm Shipping up to Boston" - Dropkick Murphys

It's a fan favorite. Everyone knows this song.

9. Step it out Mary

I'm really trying not to make this entirely about The High Kings but it's not working out too well

10. "Star of the County Down" - Irish Rovers

Decided to choose the version by the Irish Rovers instead of The High Kings

11. "Marie's Wedding" - The High Kings

I couldn't resist any longer.

12. "The Rising of the Moon" - The High Kings

I really should have just written an article about The High Kings

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Being sick in college is really tough and definitely not a fun experience. Here are the 15 stages that everyone ends up going through when they are sick at college.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
