Ariana Thompson

‘Life Goes On’ by BTS.

P. Verdon

My favourite song is 이달의 소녀 (LOONA) “PTT (Paint The Town)”!

Tolan Greyhaven

One of my favourite songs of all time is “Lay Your Cards Out” by Polica.

Christopher R.

I’ve been enjoying ‘Good Pain’ by Yoke Lore this summer. Music was a huge inspiration to me when preparing my portfolio so it was really tough to choose an anthem for myself. The song I chose, ‘Good Pain’, is about how it feels great to do hard things sometimes. A fitting sentiment for the start of a new degree, no?

Carmen Huang

“Cornelia Street” by Taylor Swift.

Rachel

I am in cohort 2, an international student from Hong Kong. My favourite genre of music is Electroswings, “Lost in Rhythm” by Jamie Berry is one of my favourites.

Matthew Funk

“It Makes You Forget (Itgehane)” – Peggy Gou

Sofía Izquierdo

“I Wanna Be Yours” by Arctic Monkeys

Riley Simmons

This is such a fun Idea! Here is one of my favourite Bon Iver songs called 33 “GOD”

Liza Borissova

Noize MC, Therr Maitz 一 Вояджер-1 (LAB с Антоном Беляевым)

Angela Aguilar

I've got a vast variety (from j-pop, indie rock, post-rock, all the way to acoustic, piano, and even video game tracks!) of favourite songs, but I'll stick with my gut and say my favourite as of now would have to be "Hug All Ur Friends" by Cavetown.

Y. Loker

An older favourite song: “Dazzle” by Oh Wonder.

Chelsea W.

Still Woozy - Window

I chose this song because of the happy vibes and smiles it gives me every time.

Samantha Hall

For my song I have chosen “Hold on to Memories” by Disturbed. The video is a lot more sad than I expected and does not reflect how I feel when I listen to the song. Thank you for making this blog post about us! I am looking forward too reading it.

Catherine Rosales

It took me a while to choose a song because I don’t have a favorite one, but ultimately I chose a song that conjures a lot of nostalgia in me. The song is called: Amor Eterno by Rocío Dúrcal. My mom used to sing it a lot when I was growing up, so it means a lot to me. Since I mostly listened to my mom singing it, I’d actually never watched the music video until now.

Emma D.

My favorite song is Ghosting by Mother Mother.

Ava Shahres

One of my current favourite songs is "Fallen Alien" by FKA Twigs.

Amelia B.

So I really enjoy listening to music that makes you feel stress-free. That's why I'd have to say “Pass By” by Pell is one of my favourite songs. This song simply de-stresses me whenever I hear it. It reminds me that anything I am worried about that day or that week isn't permanent, I don't have to focus all of my energy and attention on it because it will simply pass by.

Cassandra VP

My favourite song is called “I was made for loving you” sung by Tori Kelly and Ed Sheeran.

Pavan Sangha

One of my favourite songs right now is “That Life” by Unknown Mortal Orchestra.
