10 Bops for Your Easter Brunch Playlist

There are plenty of songs out there to keep the Christmas party going long after you walk out of church, but for Easter – not so much. Short of cranking praise and worship music or queuing up “Here Comes Peter Cottontail,” how’s a girl to keep the Easter vibes going into brunch and beyond? Look no further – here are 10 bops to casually slide onto your Easter brunch playlist.
“Everybody, yeah, rock your body, right. Backstreet’s back, alright!” This celebratory anthem is sure to get everyone on their feet (just like Jesus was).
“You think I’d crumble? You think I’d lay down and die? Oh no, not I. I will survive!” Jesus’ retort to those who thought they had killed him once and for all?
“I’m coming out so you better get this party started! Get this party started on a Saturday night; everybody’s waiting for me to arrive.” Because there ain’t no party like an Easter party.
“Best believe I’m still bejeweled, when I walk in the room, I can still make the whole place shimmer!” T-Swift teaching all of us not to settle for less.
“I’m coming out! I want the world to know, got to let it show.” It’s giving Jesus emerging from the grave vibes.
“Ah, ah, ah, ah, stayin’ alive. Stayin’ alive.” Of course, you can listen to the classic version, but a dash of Lizzo says “party” to us.
“You shoot me down, but I won’t fall. I am titanium!” Well, maybe not titanium, strictly speaking, but I think Jesus being fully God and fully human is just as effective.
“Rising up, back on the street. Did my time, took my chances. Went the distance, now I’m back on my feet, just a man and his will to survive.” Time to get the karaoke going with this “rising up” classic.
“Guess who just got back today? Them wild-eyed boys that had been away… The boys are back in town!” The disciples’ theme song as they came out of hiding to preach the gospel of the risen Christ?
“I get knocked down, but I get up again. You are never gonna keep me down.” A perfect closer to your brunch playlist that will get stuck in your guests’ heads for the whole Easter season.
