With summer slowly draining away, the most important part is your end-of-summer playlist. Whether you need new songs for that last round of karaoke at Crunchy's or you just need a jam list for the pool - this is what you should be listening to.
"Take On Me" - a-ha
Starting out with something everyone knows the words to is important. This simple classic will get you pumped.
"Like A Prayer" - Madonna
Every playlist needs Madonna. I mean, she's from Michigan, of course she's on every Michigander's playlist.
"Don't Look Back in Anger" - Oasis
It's hard to have more than one Oasis song on the same playlist, but at the end of summer ya gotta do, what ya gotta do.
"Come on Eileen" - Dexy's Midnight Runner's
Another song to pump you up. As the pace picks up, so do you dance moves.
"I'm Gonna Be (500 Miles)" - The Proclaimers
Keeping with the upbeat pace, this one will make you dance harder than you ever have before.
"Total Eclipse of the Heart" - Bonnie Tyler
When you need to slow it down, Bonnie will bring a tear to your eye.
"Creep" - Radiohead
This will work you back into the more upbeat songs as "Creep" is a song we all can relate to at some point (I'm talking to you, while stalking you on Insta right now.)
"Mr. Brightside" - Kings of Leon
I just love this song and that's why it's on the playlist.
"Teenage Dirtbag" - Wheatus
Another song all of us relate to.
"I Wanna Dance With Somebody" - Whitney Houston
IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII WANNA DANCE!
"Hey Jude" - The Beatles
Another classic toward the end is perfect.
"Don't Stop Believin'" - Journey
Have you ever been in a place that's not Michigan and screamed this at the top of your lungs? I have. I just did it in London and it was perfect because we were the only ones.
"Baby One More Time" - Britney Spears
For all you 90's babies - this one's for you.
"Wonderwall" - Oasis
Anyway.... here's Wonderwall.
