Whether it be a day walking around campus or a night out on the Toon, this playlist will help you face whatever Freshers' Week throws at you.
I know the only thing I wanted when I was a fresher was a comfort blanket in some form, something to turn to when it all got a bit too bloody daunting.
So if you are in need of a metaphorical hug, then look no further than this nostalgia playlist. From songs you all would have bopped along to when you were a youngster to the songs that were definitely played at your prom, this playlist has it all.
‘I’m 19 (or 18) and I’m on fire.’ Great lyrics that will probably sum up exactly how you feel as you walk into your first underwhelming freshers' party, where you don’t meet your new best friend for life.
A 2010’s pop banger and I do not care what you Scherzy haters say. This choon will get you ready for any pres. It is also good for when the love of your life that you thought you met in Digital ‘loses your number.’
I know, I know you can’t listen to this without thinking about Barry Keoghan’s backside but it’s still a nice trip down memory lane (the song I mean).
Another cheesy classic for the morning after the night before…
One for when the blues set in.
Another one for the end of the night or for when the dreaded freshers' flu has you in a chokehold and you need a little bit of Britney TLC.
Ahh talking of TLC, lets finish this on a high with a bit of 90’s R&B, this will pick up your mood when you are down and it’s a great Karaoke song. Holy Hobo and Cosy Joe’s- you’re welcome!
Honorary Mention: Our Day Will Come- Amy Winehouse
Come wind or shine, let’s be honest it will probably be wind, Amy has us covered. This reggae-esque from the songstress of soul has heart and will help with your hangover head.
