Playlist Plugged In: songs to help you focus

By DELLA HETHCOX

Feeling a bit panicky about the last few weeks of the semester? Here are a dozen songs that will help you refocus on your studies and group projects during these crazy weeks. These songs will help you stay calm whether you are waiting in line at Blackstone for that fifth espresso or stuck in a study corral at the library. At first glance this might seem like a hipster’s paradise, but give it a chance. Electropop royalty duo Odesza make an appearance as well as a slower jam by The Killers. But, of course, you cannot have a playlist without an a cappella song, which begins the playlist and sets the tone for your study session. Happy listening!
