1. Andy Grammer: Keep Your Head Up
Through everything that happens we gotta keep our heads up and have hope that thing will get better.
2. Robin Schulz: Shed a Light
2020 can feel very dark. We lost people, we are divided, hate is spreading. But we can shed a light for each other, no matter how small the act.
3. Black Eyed Peas: Where is the Love?
From racial tension to to political polarity. So much hate is being spread but where is the love? I think this song covers hatred in a racial circumstance but looks at other ways hate is spreading at well.
4. MC Hammer: Can’t Touch This
This is a song for the social distancing in practice, by many at least. Did you sanitize?
5. Flo Rida: My House
I though this would be funny because we’re all stuck in our houses. And even though you may think places are opening up, I believe starting tonight, the rule ‘no gathering of more than 10 people’ is in effect and stores are closing again. Almost like March all over again.
6. Star Spangled Banner

For those who could vote, no matter if chose to re-elect Donald Trump or turn to Joe Biden (or maybe you didn’t vote at all, in which case… why…?) theres no doubt that the nation is most divided now than in a long time. So I added the anthem really to say the America is suffering right now, in more ways than just politically.
7. Can’t Swim: God Awful
Because 2020 has been ‘god awful’: fires, protests, explosions, the election, the Black Panther, injustice, murder hornets… the list just keeps on going and growing.
8. Ellie Goulding: Burn
I just put this song because I remembered all the fires and the explosion that happened during the year, which was covered by media for only like 3 days and then the world moved on.
9. Vexento: Still Standing
Just looking back on all the stuff we have gone through as students and citizens from the good we lost to the unwelcome we got, we are here and still standing. Just shows our perseverance.
10. Bee Gee: Stayin’ Alive
The world can feel like it’s ending, especially in early 2020. But although the world is suffering, we stayin’ alive!
