Virgo season is here! What better way to celebrate than with a carefully cultivated playlist that all the veracious Virgos will enjoy?
Gift From Virgo
Written and performed by Beyoncé. Co-written by Shuggie Otis
Yeah? I’m going big and starting this list off with Beyoncé! This song is perfect for the more romantic Virgos. Not only does this song have the word “Virgo” in the title? It also glorifies two of the mutable earth sign’s most important values — loyalty and stability.
Manic Monday
Written by Prince. Performed by The Bangles
All earth signs can be admired for their work ethic, and Virgo specifically exemplifies industriousness. But even workaholics need to complain about Monday every once in a while. And what better way to do it than screaming this song at the top of your lungs?
9 to 5
Written and performed by Dolly Parton
Wow, Beyoncé and Dolly on one playlist! You’re welcome, Virgo. This typewriter-laden tune will help keep you sane during even the most tumultuous work week. This is the perfect song to play as you pour yourself a cup of ambition.
Virgo Tendencies
Written and performed by Keke Palmer
Fun fact, I actually wrote this article on Keke Palmer’s 28th birthday! You got to love how unapologetic this song is. Virgos can listen to this song when they need to reclaim their power.
Summertime Blues
Written by Eddie Cochran and Jerry Capehart. Performed by Eddie Cochran, The Beach Boys, Johnny Chester, Hep Stars, Blue Cheer, T. Rex, Mick Farren, Alan Jackson, Johnny Hallyday, and Rush…This song has been covered A LOT!
I know I already mentioned this song in my Summer Anthem article, but you can’t have a Virgo playlist without this hit. Virgo, being as you are the true workaholic of the zodiac, this song must have been written just for you. It can be hard for you to relax in the summer when there is still so much work to be done. Thankfully this song sympathizes with your plight. Feel free to “raise a fuss” when you listen to its lyrics.
We’re Going to Be Friends
Written and performed by The White Stripes
School starts back right at the start of Virgo season. And what better way to observe than by listening to this wholesome song about two classmates forming a friendship? This song speaks to Virgo’s true-blue nature.
Honey I’m Home
Written and performed by Shania Twain. Co-written by Robert John “Mutt” Lange
We know you have been working hard Virgo, and you deserve a rest. This song laments the long workday in the same way “9 To 5” does. But this one focuses on resting after a long day. You earth signs need more self-care days.
The Girl I Mean to Be
From the musical The Secret Garden. Music by Lucy Simon and lyrics by Marsha Norman.
This song can inspire all the overworked Virgos out there to take care of themselves. This type of care goes beyond naps or drinks at the end of a long week. This song reminds you to hide away for a little while and take care of your inner child.
Lean On Me
Written and performed by Bill Withers.
Virgos have the innate tendency to take care of others who they perceive are in great need of help. This song speaks to that tendency of allowing others to lean on them for guidance. It may also inspire them to lean on others when they themselves need help.
The Long Day Is Over
Written and performed by Norah Jones. Co-written by Jesse Harris.
The long day is over and so is this playlist. After a full day of laboring and loving, it is time to take a rest. Curl up and listen to the dulcet tones of Norah Jones. You have earned it!
