'Let Her Go' And 5 Other Songs To Get You Through The Fall Semester

Buckle up guys, the best season of the year is well on its way. While classes are beginning to start and undoubtedly add stress to this season, one cannot deny how exciting it is to see the leaves begin to change. While the colors, fashion, candles, and all around "homey" feel of autumn are amazing, my favorite part of fall is by far the music. The vibes this music gives off are comforting in so many ways, yet the lyrics are all intellectual and meaningful.

As a girl who loves a taste of every genre, I can say that every form of music has a sort of togetherness that you can only find in Autumn. Each genre seamlessly flows from one to the other, making the comforting feel of the tunes not once falter. This comfort can be craved during the stress of fall semester, so I made this playlist to help you kick-start your own.

1. "All Too Well" - Taylor Swift

This song not only mentions leaves and has a fall aura to it, but it has the nostalgic feeling that comes with the season. Whenever Fall so much as turns the corner to welcome itself, this song is on my playlist. It is a true masterpiece.

2. "All At Once" - The Fray

While this song lacks the autumn feel that the previous one holds, it is a must-listen. The Fray are a timeless band that create music in any playlist is incomplete without. This playlist would lose the feel of "Fall' if this edgy song was not there to contribute to it.

3. "Ready To Run" - One Direction

I didn't just add this song for you to reminisce back on your fangirl days, but because it's perfect. The beats make for an upbeat fall song, while the lyrics tell a meaningful, yet cute, story.

4. "Chocolate" - The 1975

For as long as I can remember, this song has been on my autumn playlist. In fact, I believe it is the reason I started making them. The upbeat song adds the perfect tone to the playlist while Matty's voice produces almost a "dreamy" feel to the single.

5. "Let Her Go" - Passenger

This song has been out for quite a few years, yet every time I listen to it I can't seem to get rid of the jitters I feel. It is a beautiful song full of lyrics that will definitely get you in your feels. It may seem slightly melancholy, but it's a perfect song to belt out the lyrics to in the car or in your room.

6. "Sweater Weather" - The Neighbourhood

What fall playlist would be complete without this iconic song? In fact, any song by The Neighbourhood would be appropriate for the late fall-early winter playlists. They are incredibly gifted and their dark vibes to their songs go perfectly with a dreary day.

While I could add on to this list forever, I believe this is a solid place to let you add your own twist on it. The thing about music is each song is going to resonate differently within every person. That being said, I cannot add songs you personally connect with unless it's by chance. I encourage you to add at least four songs to this playlist to truly give it the fall aura you are looking for. However, I believe that these six songs already create a perfect, comforting feel if you are content with them.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!

Another day, another Elle Woods comment. Can’t us blondes get through the day without someone harping at us over the typical stereotypes about who we are? I never understood why a person was judged based upon the hair color they were born with, or the hair color they choose to have (unless you dye your hair blue like Kylie Jenner, I’m still trying to understand why that’s a trend). Nevertheless, as it should be assumed, not everyone is the same. Not all blondes like bright colors and Lilly Pulitzer, and not all blondes claim to identify with Marilyn Monroe. I think the best suggestion to give to people before they make such radical claims is to stop judging a book by its cover. Or in this case, stop judging a blonde by her hair color.
