What you’re feeling? They’re called the mid-term blues. Because there comes a time in every term when it hits us – we came to University to actually get that degree to make us actually employable (etc). So we thought it was time to compile a Mid-Term Blues Pick Me Up Playlist to drag you through to next week with your sanity still in tact. It may be late February and snowing when you walk to campus, you may be rationing yourself to just one night out a week and you may be ordering dinner to the Forum as you pull another all-nighter. All small (first world) tragedies in and off themselves. But each of those scenarios brightens just a little with great new (and a few classic) songs on your iPod.
Love Me Lots (Bridge & Law Remix) – Ain’t No Love
Hey Ya (Acoustic Cover) – Matt Weddle
A new version of the song you heard so much you begged it to never come on the radio again. Updated, you can do more than just stomach it again. You can enjoy it.

Touch My Body (Cyril Hahn Remix) – Mariah Carey
If you’re sitting opposite someone really hot in the library…
Can’t Stop Me (Radio Edit) – Afrojack& Shermanology
When sentence after sentence is just flowing.
Drunk Off Your Love – Shwayze & Cisco ft. Sky Blu
For when you can’t get drunk off love, or anything else, because you’re stuck in the library.
The good times will roll back round soon.

Send Me On My Way – Rusted Root
Shades of Grey (SpectraSoul Remix) – Delilah
Not the book. This is a… different kind of therapy.
Together Again – Janet Jackson
In Janet’s words, you and summer will be again soon.
Play Hard – David Guetta ft. Ne-yo and Akon
Work hard now so you can be back at this next week.

Fifteen (Oxford Remix) – Goldroom ft. Chela
You know it’ll make you smile. Just make sure your headphones don’t overplay. People will probably judge you.
For when you have none. But you have to walk to campus.

Because not everything blue is necessarily bad…
One Night Stand – Enrique Iglesias
Because you’ll be having one with the library…
Because teardrops of happiness will fall when you hand it in.

There’s good and there’s bad.
Still D.R.E. – Dr Dre ft. Snoop Dogg
When has Snoop Dogg not put a smile on your face? A mellow remix, because the library is not the top floor of Timepiece.
What Else Is There? (Thin White Duke Remix) – Royksopp
A personal favourite. The answer’s you’ll find out at that final word count.
