Being the end of November, college students are preparing for the dreaded amount of finals which will conclude many stressful semesters for students everywhere. One coping mechanism students use to survive the remaining time left in the semester. With that being said, here are five songs worth giving a listen as finals season commences.

1. "1998" by Chet FakerKnown for it's interesting beat and pace, "1998" is a combination of various sounds and rhythms that are sure to get your feet tapping under that coffee shop table that you have been stuck under for the last hour or two. It's a happy song and happiness is often a relief in times of stress.

2. "Happy Accidents" by Saint Motel

For the more sentimental, this song is a calm one by the up and coming group Saint Motel. (Sidenote: this group will probably take over the world.) Their #1 song "My Type" was made famous within the last year and they keep pushing the bar. "Happy Accidents" is a delightful little song about the possibilities of life and how small events can impact your life in the most monumental ways. Definitely a good song to listen to when stressed to the max. This song melts away stress.

3. "Déjà Vu" by Runaway Weekend

For When you need to power through a lecture from six weeks ago that you are so sure you slept through and you need motivation, listen to this song. It builds up and up and up and drops all at once. The sound is incredible and somehow empowers you. Although way too short, the song is worth a listen especially when in need of a calmer song that will keep you moving forward while studying.

4. "Afterhours" by Troyboi feat. Diplo & Nina SkyThis song should be known as the study break song. Although it won't get you head banging in a coffee shop, it might get your body rocking and stretching out from a long study session. The repetitive lyrics make it easy to learn and the drops and sounds make it a fun little song to dance to after hours of studying.

5. "Sedona" by Houndmouth

If you have yet to see an Arizona sunset, I recommend you listen to this song and if you enjoy the words, buy a ticket and come on out to experience one. That being said, this song is a relaxing one. After a long day of studying, burn a candle, draw a bath, make your favorite snack, and turn this song on. Instant relaxation.
