The Perfect Playlist - Harrison Broyles

I actually stole this from my Spotify account, and it's a playlist I use at work frequently. I'm demanded to move fast and work hard, so none of the songs can have breaks in their motivation or upbeat rhythms.

Bailando- Enrique Iglesias

I've finally achieved the point in my Spanish journey where I can actually understand a general amount of the words in the song. The song is actually pretty motivating, and usually incurs a good work ethic among myself and the Hispanic population in the kitchen.

Timber- Pitbull

If there was any song to create a hype atmosphere, it's this one. If I could actually rap it may be even better, but I'm white so it hasn't happened.

Honey, I'm Good- Andy Grammer

My hands down favorite song. Catchy enough, simple, fast paced, easy to comprehend. I'd be singing it whether it was on my playlist or not, but I don't usually sound too good without music to cover up my atrocious attempts at squawking.

Brave- Sara Bareilles

This is a "guilty pleasure" song, because I don't readily admit it, but I do like this song and its overall positive message. A lot. And it invokes a bit of good feeling about myself when work gets stressful and I don't feel like I'm doing well enough.

Happy- Pharrell Williams

Honestly I'm still five and think of Despicable Me every time I hear this. Great movie, superb song. Brings a smile to my face every time I think of it.



As for the order of the playlist, my nights at work usually start off great and chill, but when closing starts I need a little extra boost- often I'm the only person doing a 3 person job while attending to other needs and running drive thru. I often go nuts. I need the first three songs to build up some excitement, the fourth to make me feel good about myself, and the final to top it all off and power me through my night.
