The 24 Best Happy Birthday Songs Grab the balloons and put some candles on that cake. Whether it's really your birthday or you're just ready to party like it is (a-la 50 Cent), here's a list of. (To Everything There Is a Season)', is a song written by Pete Seeger in the late 1950s and first recorded in 1959. The lyrics – except for the title, which is repeated throughout the song, and the final two lines – consist of the first eight verses of the third chapter of the biblical Book of Ecclesiastes. The song was originally released in 1962.
Blink-182 has a famous line in the song, “What’s My Age Again” that states, “Nobody likes you when you’re 23.” Turns out Blink-182 explains a lot more about your 20s than we previously thought. Here is your entire 20s explained by Blink-182 lyrics.
Ages: 20-21
Is There A Song About Turning 24
Song: “All the Small Things”
Key Lyrics: “Say it ain’t so, I will not go. Turn the lights off, Carry me home”
Synopsis: “Say it ain’t so.” – This is something you will mutter to yourself while slamming the snooze button many early mornings in the first few years of your 20s. You may be waking up for an especially early morning job or an early morning class, and you’ll begin to realize that mornings aren’t as easy as they were in high school. On the bright side, the main reason you won’t enjoy getting up in the morning will be due to the fact that you were enjoying the shit out of the night before. You’ll have nights where you “turn the lights off” and rely on people to literally “carry you home” after a night out. This will especially ring true on your 21st birthday.
Age: 22
Song: “First Date”
Key Lyrics: “Let’s go, don’t wait, this night’s almost over. Honest, let’s make this night last forever. Forever and ever, let’s make this last forever”
Synopsis: For a lot of people, 22 is their first year out of college. At 22, you will try to hold onto everything that was fun about being 21, while slowly gaining more and more responsibilities. Nights out on the town will now only take place primarily on the weekends, and you’ll want those “nights to last forever.” This is the year you’ll really learn to appreciate a good weekend night out, as Monday mornings will now consist of you vaguely explaining your weekend to coworkers you don’t like.
Age: 23
Song: “What’s My Age Again?”
Key Lyrics: “Nobody likes you when you’re 23” and “My friends say I should act my age. What’s my age again? What’s my age again?”
Synopsis: The only good thing about turning 23 is the fact that you can reference a Blink-182 song as a reason for no one liking you for an entire year of your life. At 23, you’re either still too low on the totem pole at work for people to take you seriously, or you’re still in school with what seems like no end in sight. Either way, you’ll be paying for things with money you still don’t have. This is also the first year of your life where you will have to stop and think for a brief moment when people ask, “What’s your age again?”
Age: 24
Song: “Dammit”
Key Lyrics: “But everybody’s gone, and I’ve been here for too long, to face this on my own. Well I guess this is growing up”
Synopsis: At this point in your life, you’ll likely realize who you still want to remain good friends with as a lot of your friends will spread out across the country. You’ll be working at a job you don’t care for that much, or you’ll still be studying even tougher classes in grad school as you realize “that everybody’s gone and you’ve been here for too long.” This might not be one of the most comfortable years of your life, but you’ll learn a lot about yourself and your friends at 24. Just remember, you can always shrug off unpredictable obstacles with the oddly soothing thought of, “Well, I guess this is growing up.”
Age: 25
Song: “Adam’s Song”
Key Lyrics: “I couldn’t wait till I got home, to pass the time in my room alone”
Synopsis: Age 25 is the year you officially hate really loud bars. You’ll start slowing down on weekends, and will start enjoying simple, quiet nights where you just “pass time in your room alone.” You’ll lean increasingly more towards staying in on Friday nights to binge watch a Netflix series instead of going out to binge drink at a bar.
Ages: 26-27
Song: “Feeling This”
Key Lyrics: “Look to the past, and remember and smile, and maybe tonight, I can breathe for a while.”
Synopsis: If you haven’t started feeling the effects of aging, you will definitely be “feeling this” back pain around age 26. At this stage in your 20s, you should be more comfortable where you’re at in your life and you’ll be able to “look to the past, and remember and smile.” If you’ve been working at the same job for a while people will probably be taking you more seriously, which will lead to raises, which will lead to you being able to “breathe for a while.”
Ages: 28-30
Song: “Up All Night”
Key Lyrics: “Did I get this straight? Do you want me here? As I struggle through each and every year. And all these demons, they keep me up all night”
Synopsis: This is the point of your life where you may have gotten into a routine and are now questioning all the moves you made the last 10 years of your life. You begin thinking to yourself, “Did I get this straight?” Also, every person in their late 20s or early 30s is currently more tired than they’d like to be. People in this age range always have some “demons” keeping them up at night. It could be from worrying about money, a troubled spouse, or an actual demon child could be punching you while you try to sleep at 5 a.m. on a Saturday. Ironically, you refer to this demon as your little angel to friends and family.
Enjoy every year of your 20s. Before you know it, they’ll be gone in the blink of an eye, and you’ll be thinking, “I miss you.”
My best friend of eight years and college roommate of four can probably tell you that my mornings are not very pretty. Not only do I loathe the phrase “the early bird catches the worm,” but if you want to avoid the wrath of Emma in the morning, you better be prepared with a large coffee and breakfast sandwich in hand.
Lyrics About Being 18
So after many awkwardly silent and grumpy mornings, the two of us decided to add some upbeat music to our schedule. Not only did these songs help us kick those Monday blues, but they also generally helped us start all of our mornings off on the right side of the bed, despite the long school day to come.
Whether you’re getting ready for that long commute to work, thinking about the test you have in an hour, or you’re simply in need of a better way to start your day, these songs below should help you get there. You’ll probably be listening to these tunes so often that you’ll find yourself singing them in the shower and while you’re painting your nails Easy A-style. After this, you’ll view your mornings in a completely different way and *gasp* might even actually look forward to them.
'Walking On Sunshine' — Katrina & The Waves
This song pretty much screams happiness. There’s really nothing better than a feel-good song to kick off your morning.
'Believe in Yourself' — Ziggy Marley or Chance the Rapper
You would not believe (or maybe you would) how many times my roommate and I played this our freshman year. Yes, it might be the theme song to Arthur, but there’s a reason it made us happy when we were little. 'Cause it’s bomb.
'With A Little Help From My Friends' — The Beatles
Ringo Starr was always everyone’s favorite. This will definitely put a smile on your face.
'Over The Rainbow' — Israel Kamakawiwo’ole
I could cry so many happy tears listening to this song. So peaceful and beautifully sung, it’s the best song to keep you calm in the morning.
'Ready Or Not' — Bridgit Mendler
Like a young Natasha Bedingfield, Mendler has a way with singing. Do not underestimate the power of this former Disney Channel star. Do not.
'Cassy O’' — George Ezra
If this British singer’s cheerful song doesn’t have you going in the morning, then I don’t know what will. Who doesn’t want a British man singing to them in the morning?
'Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go' — Wham!
Some songs just make you want to dance around in your underwear and sing into a hairbrush. This is one of them.
'Wouldn’t It Be Nice' — Beach Boys
Beach Boys to keep things mellow? Classic.
Songs About Turning 24 Years
'Clint Eastwood' — Gorillaz
If only I could actually carry around sunshine in a bag. At least I can carry it on my iPod with the Gorillaz.
'This Will Be' — Natalie Cole
Not only does this song play during The Parent Trap (already making it the best) but it's also super uplifting. You're welcome.
'Ain’t No Mountain High Enough' — Marvin Gaye
Think Ryan Gosling in Remember The Titans. If that doesn't make you happy, then there's a deeper issue we have to discuss.
'Hawaiian Roller Coaster Ride' – Mark Keali’I Ho’omalu and Kamehameha Schools Children’s Chorus
Lilo and Stitch was probably one of the best Disney movies ever with one of the greatest soundtracks to accompany it. Disney really just knows how to come up with some catchy hits.
'Feeling Good' — Nina Simone or Michael Buble
Honestly, an entire playlist from this Frank Sinatra twin could wake me up in the morning. However, since I can only choose one song, this cover of Simone’s Feeling Good will have to do. Swoon worthy.
'Quelqu’un m’a dit' — Carla Bruni
Sometimes it’s nice to listen to something slow in the morning, especially if you’re not one to go from walking dead to energized caffeine addict instantly. Take a deep breath with this beautiful French song to bring about positive vibes.
'An Irish Party In Third Class' — Gaelic Storm
Okay, so Titanic was pretty sad, especially when someone (ahem, Rose) wouldn’t share the door with Jack, but this Irish song will make you want to party. Even in the morning. And there’s nothing wrong with a little bit of dancing to get your day started.
'Love Today' — Mika
Mika is basically the god of happy songs with that amazingly high-pitched voice of his. Tell me this won’t make your morning. I dare you.
Songs About 23 Year Olds
'I’m Like A Bird' — Nelly Furtado
Although I’m sad that Furtado had babies and pretty much stopped singing to be a mom (props to her, though), she’s got some pretty awesome songs in her repertoire. She’ll make you look forward to the work day ahead of you.
'Ain’t It Fun' — Paramore
There’s something so carefree about this Paramore song even though it is about learning to grow up and become independent. Plus, Hayley Williams’ vocals are always badass.
'Daylight' — Matt and Kim
Aside from their brilliant chemistry, this dynamic duo has provided the world with one of the most high-spirited songs ever. If you don’t already, you’ll play this song on repeat.
'Dog Days Are Over' — Florence and the Machine
I just want to clap my hands and jump around on my bed to this song. It’s pretty much impossible to have a bad day after listening to this.
'Send Me On My Way' — Rusted Root
![Songs About Turning 24 Songs About Turning 24](/uploads/1/1/8/3/118392388/379388926.jpg)
Every time I listen to this song, I feel like I’m on my way to some sort of exotic, tropical destination. You might not be so fortunate as to actually be on vacation while listening to this song, but at least it’ll help lift your spirits in the morning.
