my playlist
-Nicole Lockwood
The link above leads to a playlist of songs I made that I believe best represent myself and my life. The first song on the playlist is “What I Got” by Sublime. I chose this song because the lyrics talk about being carefree and living a life free of worries. This song is a constant reminder that life should not be taken to seriously, and you should always enjoy life as much as possible.
The second song is “Countdown” by Beyonce. This song is one that is very empowering for women, and I find it inspirational. Beyonce is a strong, confident woman that I believe all girls should look up to as a role model.
The next song is “All You Need is Love” by the Beatles. This song is also one that talks about the value of enjoying life, and loving those around you. The only true key to happiness is love, in terms of loving yourself as well as people who surround you. I agree with the lyrics and the central meaning of this song.
The fourth song is “Living in the Moment” by Jason Mraz because the main idea of this song is that life is short and goes very quickly, so we should make the most of each and every single day. Don’t miss any opportunity to do what you want. I try and live my life according to this idea.
The fifth song is “Closing Time” by Semisonic. The one line that stands out the most to me is the one that says “Closing time, every new beginning comes from some other beginning’s end.” This quote holds a lot of meaning to me, especially now as I am facing so many transitions in my life and adapting day by day.
The sixth song is “Someday” by Sugar Ray. This song talks about reflecting on your life and realizing what’s most important, as well as the people in your life who have had the greatest impact. This is one of my favorite songs since I was a young girl, so it brings back many memories for me.
The seventh song is “With a Little Help From My Friends” by the Beatles. I think the title speaks for itself, as it represents the importance of good friends. I am grateful to have had many great friends throughout my life, and I am now thankful for the new friends I have made since I got to Baruch.
The eighth song is “We Are Young” by Fun. This was my senior song at my high school, and it reminds me of all the great times I had at high school.
The ninth song is “Doin’ Time” by Sublime. This song is pretty much my summer anthem, as the lyrics talk about enjoying summer and living a carefree life.
The last song is “Life is Beautiful” by Vega 4, because the lyrics talk about taking a step back from the hustle and bustle of society, and realizing just how beautiful this life can truly be.
interesting: beatle songs! Fun was done on Glee which is how I first heard that song.
