Every year spotify users open the greatest gift of all, which is a curated playlist of their most listened to music over the last year. It shows your top song and artist, and gives you a personalized playlist of your most listened songs. Let’s find out what some USC student’s top songs of the year were!

CAITLYN SU: It was “Peaches” by Justin Bieber. I’m a little bit underwhelmed. I wish it was more fun.

JASMINE LIU: My number one song was “Better” by Khalid. I was kind of surprised cause I feel like I only listened to it for a week. Just a lot that one week.

MIHIR SINGH: Alright, Bad Bad Bad, Lil Baby.

KEGAN STRAWN: Top song was actually the Ted Lasso theme song. So like the main song of Ted Lasso? Yeah, it’s kind of a random one. I played it a lot and I got really into the show and I then liked the song. And so I just had it in like multiple of my playlists.

NIC BUXBAUM: Douha (Mali Mali). I thought I had listened to other songs more than that. And honestly, it’s like not even a song I really like that much anymore. So it’s kind of sad to see there.

Now that you’ve heard from these USC students…have you looked at your Spotify Wrapped yet?
