If you haven't already, you will probably be heading back to school soon, and you may need some background music to keep sane in the midst of unpacking, decorating and making sure everything is set for the first day of class. I keep a plethora of CD's and playlists in my car and on my phone to blast as I go through the never ending mountain of cardboard boxes that are a staple characteristic of move in day. But fear not! If you haven't made your "move in mixtape," I am hear to supply you with 10 great songs to jam out to!
1. "Miles Away," by The Maine
This song is great for long drives. Turn it up as you head for school from wherever the summer has taken you. Milledgeville is only a few miles away!
2. "It's Time, Juliet," by Smija
The perfect throwback to sing at the top of your lungs, but with a surprising twist! Great for car rides and moving around furniture with friends.
3. "Take It All Back," by Judah & The Lion
These fantastic people make some amazing music that you will get to hear live if you are in Milly for Deep Roots in October!
4. "Secrets," by State Champs
This song sounds best with the windows rolled down and the highway ahead. The catchy chorus will have you singing after the second listen.
5. "San Francisco," by The Mowgli's
This song has a catchy melody and sounds like the perfect end to a great summer. If you enjoy a good beat and a snazzy horn section, have a listen!
6. "Without A Fight," by Brad Paisley and Demi Lovato
A great country song for the car or back in your room. Wherever you feel most comfortable belting the lyrics and trying to reach the same notes as Demi is where you should turn up this song!
7. "The Boys Are Back In Town," by Thin Lizzy
As you drive back into Milly, this oldie is great to jam to. Even if this is your first year, it's still an awesome song to blast in the car!
8. "Vegas Lights," by Panic! At The Disco
This catchy tune is hard to keep from dancing to. Do not be surprised if you throw all of your boxes aside for a moment and jump around your entire room.
9. "All Over," by CRUISR
Another upbeat song that will have you dancing around. Organizing your new apartment, dorm room, or house will seem a little more fun with this melody in the background!
10. "Bored To Death," by blink-182
Have you heard their new album? Because this is just a taste of the greatness, but it will help supply some good background music as you unpack that last box lie down in your new home for the semester.
