The New Year began on a Sunday, so what better song to celebrate with? With it's poppy-gospel, upbeat style and the real, anecdotal lyrics, it makes you want to dance and sing and jump into 2017 with high hopes.
2. Best for Last by Adele
Lyrics to live by:
"You should know that you're just a temporary fix/
This is not rooted with you it don't mean that much to me/ Oh just a filler in the space that happened to be free/ How dare you think you'd get away with trying to play me"
3. Show Me Love by Hundred Waters
This song is just a reminder to show love and to be a better person this year. Remember, it is important to not only love others, but to love yourself as well. The beginning of the new year is perfect for working on personal growth.

As we get older, it is important to acknowledge timing. Don't freak out about deadlines and what you may think you have to do. Take it one step at a time, and your year should be successful and happy.
6. We Didn't Start the Fire by Billy Joel
After everything that has happened in 2016, now is the time to defeat the issues that were so prevalent in 2016 that will carry over into 2017. Contrary to belief, we cannot blame a whole year on the things that happened. The world has been through hard times and has lived to tell the cautionary tale. This is the year to fight!
