Because finals are starting, everyone at 4E knows that it’s hard to get into the holiday spirit. But there’s no better way to get excited than to play some holiday music, finish that paper that you know is last minute, and cram for that bio exam that you’ve got tomorrow morning. Here’s what you should definitely have on that playlist right now.
The holiday season wouldn’t be the holiday season without some form of The Nutcracker playing in the background. This new version will honestly keep you guessing.
2. “Mistletoe” by Justin Bieber
Let’s face it. We all loved JB when this song came out and we love JB now. This is too full circle not to include.
3. “All I Want for Christmas Is You” by Mariah Carey
The classic Mariah Carey song. Use this to inspire you to make your life as iconic as Mariah has made this song.
4. “Baby It’s Cold Outside” by Idina Menzel and Michael Bublé
I’m not cruel enough to include any Frozen song on this list, but Idina Menzel’s voice is too amazing to pass up. Also, another iconic holiday song, it’s too relatable when the temperatures drop on campus to below 30 degrees.
5. “Jingle Bell Rock” by Bobby Helms
Who knows when you’re going to listen to this song, but if you know the Mean Girls dance to this song, you should definitely perform it on Lau 2 as a study break.
6. “The Christmas Song (Chestnuts Roasting on an Open Fire)” by Nat King Cole
Hands down one of the best song to get you in the holiday spirit. Works every time.
7. “It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas” by Michael Bublé
It wouldn’t be a holiday playlist without Michael Bublé. It just wouldn’t.
8. “Let It Snow, Let It Snow, Let It Snow” by Dean Martin
The more you play this, the more likely it is that it will actually snow. The snow day calculator told me so.
9. “Hallelujah” by the Pentatonix
Yes, this is the second song I’ve included from their album but honestly listen to the whole thing because it’s beautiful.
10. “Feliz Navidad” by Jose Feliciano
The best pump up holiday song. Fast paced, easy to sing along to, and just in general a holiday anthem. Get ready to belt it out.
Finally, happy holidays from everyone at 4E! And good luck on finals!
