7 Songs that Put Me in a Fall Mood

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at SMU chapter.

IT’S FALL TIME! The leaves are changing, Pumpkin Spice is in everything, and sweaters are back in season. If you are like me, it’s hard to find fall energy while doing virtual classes in my dorm. Luckily, I have a few songs that I play to put me in the fall spirits. This is such a happy time of year, so I want to spread as much autumn energy as I can! 

Put your Records On by Corinne Bailey Rae 

ULTIMATE FALL VIBES! Not going to lie, I am guilty of dancing to this in my dorm while wearing an oversized knit sweater. This song radiates happiness. 

Still Feel Like Your Man by John Mayer 

John Mayer is a legend and so is this song. The soft mellow, but upbeat vibes in this song hit so hard. 

September by Earth, Wind, and Fire

Even though this song is old, it literally marks the beginning of fall. 21st night of September anyone? The positive energy in this song always makes me wantto grab someone and dance!

Something Good This Way Comes by Jakob Dylan

This song gives me Friday Night Lights energy. The soft strum of the guitar instantly puts me in a fall mood. It’s a good rustic and feel-good bop.

Bubbly by Colbie Caillat

Such a bittersweet love! This song always makes me smile, I love the honesty in it too. Such autumn energy.

Feel Again by OneRepublic

This song NEVER fails to put me in a good mood! You can always feel the warmth in the lyrics. Makes me want to jump in a leaf pile.

Chariot by Gavin DeGraw

The soft guitar and instrumental beats of this song are SO fall! I am obsessed with this song and can totally imagine myself drinking apple cider to this song. 100% reccomend this.

This short little playlist RADIATES fall energy!! Whether you need the fall spirit, or just some new feel-good songs, I hope this helps. Fall is my favorite season and I want to appreciate for as long as I can.
