44 Songs To Remind You That Everything Will Be Okay

Kawin Harasai

Sadly, the past few weeks friends of mine have lost somebody close to them. Whether it be a family member or a close friend, losing a person you care about is not the easiest situation to deal with. Even if you have not lost somebody recently, life can easily throw some curveballs when you least expect it. Support from friends and family can be great and is always appreciated but there comes a time when you would rather be alone so that you can have time to think and take a breather. Every time I have been in a moment where I needed to catch my breath, I have the tendency to put on music. It has always helped me to calm down and think clearly about things. No matter what your go-to music type is, here is a list of 44 songs to listen to so that you can be reminded that things will be okay:

1. "I Can See Clearly Now" by Johnny Nash

2. "The Middle" by Jimmy Eat World

3. "Everything'll Be Alright" by Joshua Radin

4. "Float On" by Modest Mouse

5. "More Adventurous" by Rilo Kiley

6. "Everything Is Alright" by Motion City Soundtrack

7. "All Will Be Well" by The Gabe Dixon Band

8. "Hold On" by Tom Waits

9. "Be OK" by Ingrid Michaelson

10. "This Too Shall Pass" by OK Go

11. "Sunshine" by Atmosphere

12. "Lovely Day" by Bill Withers

13. "Swim" by Jacks Mannequin

14. "Lullaby" by Shawn Mullins

15. "Fresh Feelings" by Eels

16. "Mr. Blue Sky" by Electric Light Orchestra

17. "Dry the Rain" by The Beta Band

18. "Don't Stop" by Fleetwood Mac

19. "Safe and Sound" by Capital Cities

25 Beatles Lyrics: Your Go-To Guide for Every Situation

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Student Life

Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday

And when the brokenhearted people, living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be.

And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you'll love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love

All you need is love, love is all you need

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more

Obviously the best superpower.

There have been many lessons learned.

1. The importance of traditions.

2. How to be thankful for family and friends.

3. How to give back.

4. What the word "community" really means.
