“Happy & Sad” by Kacey Musgraves
This is a bittersweet song that sums up many of our feelings about this semester: happy to be back on campus, but sad many of our classes are online and that life is just not the same. Musgraves’ song is the perfect blend of country, pop and alternative, and her soothing voice is ideal for a lazy Sunday.
“Canyon Moon” by Harry Styles
One of the less popular songs from Styles’ most recent album “Fine Line,” “Canyon Moon,” is as catchy as it is underrated. This is a perfect song during a chill car ride, while working on homework or when hanging out with roommates. The line, “I’m going home,” captures the feeling of coming back to campus.
“Saturday Sun” by Vance Joy
When the Sunday scaries hit, this song is a refreshing reminder of that weekend feeling that is just a week away. Joy’s relaxing voice will ease any stress about the incoming school week. Take a breath and listen to this upbeat yet calm melody.
“Circles” by Mac Miller
Miller’s song, “Circles,” is a soft guitar melody that can put anyone to sleep in minutes. One of his sadder songs from the posthumous album can be used to unwind after a long stressful week. It sounds perfect with headphones while lying in bed and just letting the music move you.
“Sunday Morning” by Maroon 5
The name itself is fitting. Listening to this classic by Maroon 5 on a chill Sunday morning with a cup of coffee will settle your nerves about anything that might be happening on Monday. The line “things just get so crazy living life gets hard to do” hits home on a stressful Sunday night, after cramming homework into one day. “Sunday Morning” can remind you that everything will be fine.
“The Less I Know the Better” by Tame Impala
Some might say that this indie favorite is overplayed, but sometimes indie songs become popular for a reason. This song is perfect for hanging out by yourself or singing the lyrics with friends to brighten the Sunday mood.
“august” by Taylor Swift
From Swift’s newest alternative album, “Folklore,” “august” takes us through a magical love story. Although summer is slipping away and schoolwork is starting to pile up, listening to “august” is like taking a walk down memory lane. As you begin to reminisce about summer, listen to this song.
