2. Built This Way (Slow Remix) by Samantha Ronson

 

One of the best songs in the “Mean Girls” soundtrack, with its iconic guitar chords that echo through your ears, will have you feeling like Cady Heron any day. The lyrics of self-reflection and letting go are just the cherry on top of this feel-good song. 

3. High by Slow Pulp

The part of the movie where the main character finds themselves facing the consequences of a night of bad decisions. This song is the type to make you close your eyes and feel everything all at once. The heavy atmospheric chords and dreamy vocals will leave you feeling like you’re floating on water.
