Hoya Beats: Country Favorites
For those Hoya collegiette’s™ not quite ready to give up on summer and embrace fall, here are a few of our favorite country jams to keep you in a summer state of mind. Sitting out on the lawn on the sunny three-day weekend listening to these tunes will help bring back that summer feeling (despite midterms)!
Summer Nights – Rascal Flatts
This is a great song about everyone’s favorite – summer nights! I dare you to put this on and fight to urge to start dancing. While it may leave you wishing for one more day at the beach, it’s definitely worth the listen!
