MOTIVATION PLAYLIST for graduates who are losing the will to live.


This is for all those recent (or not so recent) graduates who are STILL looking for a job (myself included).

It's that time of year when it really sinks in that we are not in fact going back to Uni. Everyone else is getting their school supplies ready, packing their rooms up, buying ridiculous kitchen equipment that you know you'll never use, and looking forward to getting a boogie on during freshers week.

But not us. We have spent all summer filling out ridiculously tedious job application forms for openings that; we are not 100% what they are about, what company they are for, or if we really want them.

And the search is certainly starting to drain on our enthusiasm reserves.

That's where this playlist comes in!

It's been carefully crafted to give maximum positivity and motivation for all of us job searchers, reminding us that ONE DAY we will get a job.

The 'MOTIVATION PLAYLIST for graduates who are losing the will to live.' is available on Spotify so please 'subscribe' or 'follow' or whatever it is.



Some of the links are a bit more tedious than others, but just listen to the lyrics closely and you'll get the idea.

I hope you enjoy this playlist, and I certainly hope that you ONE DAY get a well deserved job.

Kirsty

Anyway, we will have to play loads of amazing music as though it's the final show, you know, just in case.

Here is the Unrestricted Playlist for this week, as always the VIP Track of the Week is in italics, and I would recommend that you go and find all these songs on iTunes and download them for your own collection. In a lot of ways I've done the hard bit, all you have to do is the easy bit!

Tiesto - Red Lights
Hillsong Young and Free - Alive
Josh Record - Bones

Frozen Soundtrack - For The First Time In Forever
Mat Kearney - Undeniable
Wilkinson - Half Light ft. Tom Cane

Bombay Bicycle Club - Feel
Kasabian - eez-eh
Sam Smith - Stay With Me
Coldplay - A Sky Full Of Stars
Ed Sheeran - Sing

T'was a wonderful show, and whether it was my last one or not I enjoyed myself at least :)

See you next week?

I'll let you know, in the mean time give me a cheeky little follow on Twitter or Instagram and say 'Hi'.

IT'S MY BIRTHDAY ON TUESDAY!

So in honour of all Birthday's across the globe, here is a special VIP Track of the Week.

Not only do I love Katy Perry, but she has just released a song called 'Birthday'. IS THIS FATE OR WHAT.

Anyway, here is the wonderfully hilarious video that she made for it. I especially love it when Yousef does break-dancing, so watch out for that bit.



See you on Tuesday with more amazing music that I can't wait to share with you!
