20 Inspirational Songs To Get You Through Finals Week

With finals right around the corner, college students across America are facing the immense pressure of doing well on all of their exams and landing the summer jobs of their dreams. It is a very stressful time for college students to say the least. With all of the time spent studying and in the library, that means everyone will be listening to a lot of music to motivate them to do well on their exams. Here are 20 great songs that will help any college student get through the struggles of finals week. May the odds be ever in your favor!

1. "Jesus Take The Wheel" by Carrie Underwood


2. "Something in the Water" by Carrie Underwood

Carrie is the perfect motivator to ace your exams and finish those papers!

3. "Stand by You" by Rachel Platten

4. "Waiting on the World to Change" by John Mayer

5. "XO" by Beyonce


Beyonce's positive messages are bound to get you an A on that exam (also check out her new album "Lemonade!")

6. "Latch (Acoustic)" by Sam Smith


If this song doesn't give you chills, I'm not sure what will. Sam Smith has the voice of an angel that will calm anyone down during a stressful week of exams.

7. "She Will Be Loved" by Maroon 5

An oldie, but most definitely a goodie! This Maroon 5 classic will keep you on track with your studying.

8. "Yellow" by Coldplay


9. "Best Thing I Never Had" by Beyonce


10. "How to Save a Life" by The Fray


Sorry to all of the "Grey's Anatomy" fans out there who associate this song with the trauma of "Grey's," but this is also a great studying song.

11. "Incomplete" by James Bay


James Bay's unique voice and music style will keep you from procrastination.

12. "Stronger (What Doesn't Kill You)" by Kelly Clarkson


13. "Beautiful" by Christina Aguilera


14. "All I Ask" by Adele


Anything from Adele's new album is amazing, this is just one of the many great songs.

15. "Love Yourself" by Justin Bieber

Although I may be a bit biased about Justin Bieber, all of his latest music has been so great. It will definitely keep you occupied during those long nights in the library.

16. "Think of You" by Chris Young and Cassadee Pope


This new country song, featuring "The Voice" alum Cassadee Pope, is such a jam. When you need that late-night pick-me-up, grab your coffee and blast this song to gain some energy.

17. "Out of the Woods" by Taylor Swift


18. "Just Give Me a Reason" by P!nk and Nate Ruess


19. "FourFiveSeconds" by Rihanna, Kanye West and Paul McCartney


20. "Bless the Broken Road" by Rascal Flatts


Good luck to all of the college students out there who are struggling with finals! Hopefully these songs and some of your other favorites will make these few weeks less painful. Just remember summer is right around the corner!

So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.
