20 Albums To Get You Through The End Of The Semester Slump
Greta Westcott

The end of the year is almost here. I honestly cannot believe how fast this past semester has gone by. Over the last few months, I have discovered and revisited some albums that help me get through anything; stress, homework, love, friendship... anything. These are some pick me ups that I would suggest to anyone looking to expand their music field.

1. Dean Lewis - "Same Kind of Different EP"

Suggested song: Need You Now

"Because you’re the only one who comes when I’m lonely
You’re the only one who comes when I’m lonely for you."

2. Dispatch - "America, Location 12"

Suggested song: Only the Wild Ones

"No place to go but everywhere."

3. Turnover - "Peripheral Vision"

Suggested song: Humming

"With you tonight, I know I can make it out, with you tonight I know I'll make it out alive."

4. Tame Impala - "Currents"

Suggested song: Yes I'm Changing

"They say people never change, but that's bullshit, they do
Yes I'm changing, can't stop it now
And even if I wanted I wouldn't know how
Another version of myself I think I found, at last."

5. Tom Walker - "Fly Away With Me (Single)"

Suggested song: Fly Away With Me

"So come on fly away with me
To a place where we could be anyone we wanna be
And we can bottle up our fears
Grow a taste so sweet, knock us off our feet."

6. Allday - "Speeding"

Suggested song: Ghost

"I'll sit there waiting for the moon to rise
At the park watching good people and human life
I don't wish for it, I know it will soon arrive."

7. Mallrat - "Better (Single)"

Suggested song: Better

"All this hope is in the sky
Things I couldn't ask for anything
You're always on my side
Everyone's alive so everything's alright."

8. The Lumineers - "Cleopatra"

Suggested song: Angela

"The strangers in this town,
They raise you up just to cut you down
Oh Angela it's a long time coming, Home at last."

9. LANY - "LANY"

Suggested song: ILYSB

"My heart hurts so good
I love you, baby, so bad, so bad."

10. Mikey Mike - "Doin' Me (Single)"

Suggested song: Doin' Me

"Cuz I won't waste another day, Living someone elses way. I wanna be happy, I wanna be free, Fuck what they say, I'm doing me."

11. Grace VanderWaal - "Just the Beginning"

Suggested song: A Better Life

"So close your eyes
And create yourself a better life
Let the wind blow through your hair
Let the music take you there
And make a better life
A better life."

12. Coldplay - "Viva La Vida" or "Death and All His Friends"

Suggested song: Strawberry Swing

"Now the sky could be blue
I don't mind
Without you it's a waste of time."

13. Son Mieux - "Vice Versa EP"

Suggested song: Feels

"Oh I don't know where I am
But it feels like home
And I move myself away
When it don't feels like home
Well now I love myself again
And it feels like home."

14. Felly - "Wild Strawberries"

Suggested song: Waiting On The Sunrise

"Just caught up in these hard times, it's okay
Just need a little sunshine."

15. Fleetwood Mac - "Rumours"

Suggested song: Dreams

"You want your freedom
Well who am I to keep you down
It's only right that you should
Play the way you feel it."

17. George Ezra - "Wanted On Voyage"

Suggested song: Barcelona

"Every time you have to go
Shut my eyes and you know
I’ll be lying right by your side
In Barcelona."

18. Cage The Elephant - "Thank You, Happy Birthday"

A little bit of love and gonna
Give it to the people then they'll
And then they'll see."

'Cause your love is always waking mine."

"Oh, she's the sunset in the west
Oh, she's sleep when I need rest
And though the ship can be saved yet
And oh, for you, I would never sink again."

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."
