A fun, feel-good playlist to enjoy throughout fall alongside your favorite Starbucks drink is essential. These 8 songs perfectly embody the fall feeling we all crave and span across numerous genres to ensure there’s a tune for every music taste. 

Kiss Me” – Sixpence None The Richer: This song is perfect for daydreaming while reading or having a cup of coffee on a crisp, sunny day. Its bright guitar tones mixed with peppy drums and enchanting lyrics make it a great addition to any fall playlist. 

Night” – Bruce Springsteen: During the fall, as the weather gets colder and the busy holidays approach quickly, it can be easy for feelings of stress and anxiety to sneak up on us. This song is a reminder to listeners to go out and have fun because without fun, what is the point of all the other stressors we add to our lives?

‘tis the **** season” – Taylor Swift: Is about coming to your hometown as an adult during the winter months and reliving a past love again despite having separate lives. It perfectly articulates the way it feels going home to visit for the holidays: the way that nothing seems to change, no matter how far you’ve been, and how you just seem to fall back into the patterns of your adolescence. 

Drunk on Halloween” – Wallows: Tells a story about a fall romance that ended in heartbreak and a specific Halloween night that was a turning point in the relationship. It’s a great song to turn on if you’re looking to relax and reminisce about past friends or relationships, and it’s a must-have for fall playlists. 

Secrets from a Girl (Who’s Seen it All)” – Lorde: Fall is the time of the year when life settles into a steady pattern, yet so much chaos is approaching due to the holidays; life feels calm and like a daze at the same time. This song was written as a message to the artist’s younger self, a way to say “It’s going to be okay.” It can be a nice reminder to hear such a positive message as the days get colder and the sun shines less going into the winter months. 

Difficult” – Gracie Abrams: Although a peppy song musically, this song is a very accurate representation of how it feels to mentally spiral, which is something a lot of people, myself included, struggle with in the fall. Fall can be a stressful time with school, busy schedules, work, etc., and it can begin to feel like the year has somehow flown by. 

Pumpkin” – The Regrettes: Is a sweet love song with a slow, steady beat that represents the calm healthy relationship described in the song. This song is a calming, cheerful top pick that fits perfectly on fall playlists. 

Say You Love Me” – Fleetwood Mac: Describes a complicated on-and-off relationship where one person wants a physical and emotional relationship, while the other only seems to want a physical relationship. This type of situation is a common one to be found in, especially in the colder months, which makes this song perfect for fall playlists. 

These songs, while having different themes, all flawlessly embody some aspect of fall, making them important additions to fall playlists. Crank these tunes up when you’re in need of a fall-friendly jam session. Whether you’re craving cuddles with your boo or reminiscing about past lovers, this playlist is for you!
