The idea behind this little project was to see how my tastes in music changed as I went through the semester. Ideally, by the time I graduate in three years, I\u2019ll have eight playlists detailing my journey through college.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">I downloaded 48 songs this semester, three more than I did last semester. Here are some of my favorites (in order of date downloaded):<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><b><i><b><i>Love Yourself x Roses<\/i><\/b><b> by Enoch <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">&#8211; Starting this list is a mashup up of The Chainsmokers\u2019 <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Roses<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> and Justin Bieber\u2019s <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Love Yourself.<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> This mashup perfectly blends the two songs, laying Bieber\u2019s vocals over the melody and beats of The Chainsmokers. <\/span><\/i><\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><b><i>Mean<\/i><\/b> <b>by Taylor Swift <\/b><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">&#8211; <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Can\u2019t have a list like this without including some Taylor Swift. It\u2019s hard to believe this song was released back in 2010. Two things I love about this song is that it has some of that country sound that brought Swift to stardom and has a great message about dealing with critics.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><b><i>Viva La Vida<\/i><\/b><b> by Coldplay<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> &#8211; \u00a0Another classic. This one is two years older than Mean, being released back in 2008. There not much to say about this song. It was just bouncing around in my head one day and I had to add it to my library.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><b><i>Hello (Marshmello Remix)<\/i><\/b> <b>by Adele<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> &#8211; I first heard this song back in March at a rave that I went to. When the DJ, Brillz, dropped this, everyone just lost their minds. It\u2019s such a good remix, I can\u2019t help but dance a little every time I listen to it.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><b><i>Inside Out<\/i><\/b><b> by The Chainsmokers<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> &#8211; This is the latest song from The Chainsmokers. After their hit with <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Don\u2019t Let Me Down<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> earlier this year, expectations were high. And those expectations were met. Trust me when I say, you have to listen to this song.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><b><i>The Horizon is Ours<\/i><\/b> <b>by Underground Sound<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> &#8211; This acapella masterpiece was composed by Daniel Wolfert., a graduating senior of my fraternity, and is performed by his acapella group, Underground Sound. If you read my last post, then you know how much this song means to me.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">So there are just a few of the songs I downloaded this last semester.
