Music taste can be so diverse, especially among college students. I love my friends here at UConn, but sometimes we could not be more different regarding what we want on the aux while getting ready. For that reason, I think everybody can find a song they love in this list of mine and my friend’s favorites.

“Recently, the first thing I do when I wake up in the morning is ask my Alexa to play this song. It never fails to get me hyped up and the vibe is just amazing.”
