September 21st marked the start of fall, which, in New England, means breaking out the sweaters from the back of your closet, rushing to Starbucks (or Dunkin’) for a pumpkin-infused beverage, and most importantly, gearing up a new autumnal playlist for the chilly season. But don’t worry, I’ve got your back with 131 seasonal songs for settling into the new school year. There’s a mix of classical music, throwback tunes, and newer fall favorites. I would advise using this playlist for studying, making leaf piles, pretending to be in an episode of Gilmore Girls, and general merriment. Scan the code in the Spotify app!

CAUTION: listen for too long and you WILL turn into a pumpkin spice latte!
