Re: Songs that will get you through the exam period
I created a playlist which I use to revise to, quite aptly named 'Revision Playlist'. It's mainly instrumentals/classics/soundtracks, basically minimal singing...I find it pretty helpful.

Lots of Brooks and Dunn, not many people here will know who they are but I am a big fan
They have lots of songs for every mood that you may be in, and are incredibly talented musicians.
Worth a listen! I currently have "Neon Moon" playing through my speakers, feel a lot more relaxed! Think I will listen to "Go West" next, maybe someone on here will join me

Re: Songs that will get you through the exam periodStudying with my flatmate and he's putting on lots of classical stuff like Rachmanimov, which I'm actually finding quite helpful

Mixture of Karnivool, La Roux and Idlewild at the moment though
Got me through about 5-6 hours of Taylor and Maclaurin Series, so seems to be working fine!

Daft Punk's music in Tron Legacy seems to get me through the vast loneliness of revision, even though I don't really like that kind of music

Re: Songs that will get you through the exam period
I don't listen to modern music at all. One song that got me through my exams and motivated me is Talk Talk- Lifes What you Make it. 80's music ftw x]
I find it powerful and motivating, but that's just me.
Nothing wrong with listening to Bob Marley or Reggae music to calm to down when you think you're failing.
But don't sweat it, don't take it too far and sacrifice your mental health in general just for grades, I nearly fell into a state in depression, and trust me, it ain't nice.
yet again you never objected to genre nor type of song whiched to be told of.
