Oooooh this is good! I love when you have a feel good playlist on and you can just belt the lyrics whilst doing maths 😂 my studying is either feel good, calm and emotional (like the one I posted lol) or just really fast tempo classical music which makes me feel like I’m working for my life
My playlist :

Starting off strong with Ace of Spades - Motorhead: pumped and ready to crush this revision session

keeping up the energy with Deathgasm - Bulletbelt: doing these maths questions with ease, no questions asked

still going strong, its The Trooper - Iron Maiden

getting so many questions right, I just want to Stand up and Shout - Dio

I must be doing something illegal, everything is so easy, I must be Breaking the Law - Judas Priest

However, the closeness of exams starts to possess my mind, my tempo slows, I'm Under Pressure - Queen

I Want To Break Free - Queen

Something starts to go wrong, the questions are no longer a piece of cake.. I need a break and decide to go for a Walk - Pantera

I'm in despair, I can't seem to reach the answer, no matter how hard I try I'm just So Far Away - Avenged Sevenfold

HAHA I CRACKED IT, This Is It - Necrogoblikon

Everything is once again looking up, Mr Blue Sky - Electric Light Orchestra

I've started to regain momentum, once again finishing these questions in record time, a true Turbo Lover - Judas Priest

I'm once again pumped by the additional Fuel - Metallica, of understanding that tough concept

But, lo and behold, I check the mark scheme and I am wrong. And I can't figure out why - the (St.) Anger - Metallica starts to build up in me

At this point, I've spent about an hour on this concept. I feel a bloodthirst, and if my sister comes up to annoy me, there will be Karnage - Kanine

F*** Everything - Suicide Silence

I've just gone through the mark scheme and dropped half marks on every question for not "expressing my answers clearly enough", it seems that All Hope is Gone - Slipknot for the exams

Well it seems I have joined the Crazy Train - Ozzy Osbourne

and been admitted to a Madhouse - Anthrax

same!! i'm a new fan but their songs are absolutely magicalll. aww that's such a shame about the concert, hopefully they have more at a later date (i'm sure they will, they're really popular haha) and i may also have to book tickets because to hear their songs live would be incredible to say the least. tysm <33
