The Ultimate Friendsgiving Playlist Your Besties Will Be Grateful For

Let’s be real: anything involving pie in the song title needs to be on your playlist for a Friendsgiving gathering. Destiny's Child may no longer exist as a group, but pie is still prevailing. This is definitely a throwback to those days of awkward middle school dances where the auditorium magically turned into a separated room with boys on one side, and girls on the other.

Red (Taylor’s Version) coming out before Thanksgiving is everything a Swiftie has to be grateful for. While Taylor Swift has said that Red is her only truly breakup album, there are some bangers that will bring up the mood on your Friendsgiving feast. In fact, “22 (Taylor’s Version)” is just the song you need on your playlist to dance along to and sing at the top of your lungs. Even if you haven’t been 22 for a few years, you can still feel like you are.

While hanging out with your friends is anything but sad, both Taylor and Adele have decided it will be a “sad girl autumn” with their album releases. Having “Easy On Me” on your playlist is the perfect mellow song to play while you’re eating or just chilling before your meal. You could even add the 10-minute long “All Too Well” from Red (Taylor’s Version) for the same vibes.

Another food related song that is catchy and will get your crew dancing is “Butter” by BTS. How could you not include at least one BTS song? The boy band has taken over, turning out hit after hit. While you could swap out this song for “Dynamite” or even “Permission To Dance,” “Butter” just fits with what’s on the table at Friendsgiving.

Thanksgiving is definitely a humbling time when you give thanks for all that you’re grateful for, especially when you consider that not everyone gets to enjoy a meal with their friends and family. Plus, it’s hard not to bob your head to this catch song or tap your feet.

This song never gets old and is so upbeat. Even if you don't know the words, you have to break out a move or two when this comes on. When that chorus hits, you feel compelled to jump around. Also, if you can't quite put your finger on where you know this song from, it was definitely in Pitch Perfect.

Bruno Mars definitely knows how to make memorable songs with swoon-worthy high notes. Not only is this song one of those impeccable car karaoke jams, but it also fits the Friendsgiving theme. As you’re scooping a second helping of mashed potatoes onto your plate, you can sing along to “that’s what I like.”

There’s one thing your friends definitely like, and that’s getting together and eating delicious food. So, why not put “I Like It” by Cardi B on your playlist? This is definitely a song that will make your crew get up and dance. In fact, you can use it to get up and on your feet to make room for that extra slice of pie.

Your turkey will be golden brown as it comes out of the oven, so add “Golden” by Harry Styles to your playlist. Sure, it’s a bit of a stretch, but regardless, Harry Styles is a must on any music playlist. His songs just make you want to get up and dance like no one’s watching.

OK, this was one of those songs we had no business singing in middle school, but now we are grown and can sing whatever we want. You're going to be doing enough passing of the salt, so you might as well shake it, too. Seriously, dancing to this song is mandatory.

You cannot wait to have all your friends all together again. You just want them to stay, so having this hit from The Kid LAROI on your playlist fits perfectly. It’s also almost impossible to stay still and not jump around and dance when you hear it.

Fall means sweater weather. As the temps outside gets cooler, it’s very fitting to have a song titled “Shivers” on your Friendsgiving playlist. You and your crew, dressed in your autumn best, can dance around to this Ed Sheeran song.

This song is a must, especially if your Friendsgiving includes only you and your girls. You’ll be pretty girl rocking as you’re getting stuff done in the kitchen and chowing down at the table. Aside from the Spice Girls, you really only need each other to remember the fierceness of girl power.

While Lil Nas X may want someone who loves him, you and your friends already have that. You love each other, and at Friendsgiving, all you need now is a second helping of turkey, gravy, cranberry sauce, and more.

The Thanksgiving weather may not be perfect for rocking one pieces like Bey and Nicki, but everyone is wearing the heck out of their festive attire. Pass the stuffing and cranberry sauce, please.

It’s time to get into the sentimental stuff. Your friends at your Friendsgiving have become more like family. This song is so appropriate, because this is the crew that'll always have your back and be by your side.

This iconic song never gets old. There really hasn't been another song like”Hey Ya,” and even if it came out when you were an adolescent, you are still grooving to it as an adult. Just don’t forget to “shake it like a Polaroid picture.”

If you’re looking to dance, you can’t go wrong adding any Doja Cat song to your playlist. This will get your friends up and moving. You may even whip out some moves you picked up from TikTok or record your own video to post with your crew.
