Summer is over, and fall is upon us in the Northern Hemisphere. The autumnal equinox Saturday brought with it the guarantee that the days will get shorter, the air will get colder and the leaves will change color again. Fall is a season of mixed emotions: many of us live for the season of Pumpkin Spice Lattes even while the autumn months make us melancholic.
The songs we've collected for this Music Monday showcase the range of experiences that accompany this season. Our Spotify playlist captures the optimism of another school year, the thrill of a new romance and the disappointment of a failed one. These songs span decades and genres, but they all remind us of the months ahead.
