When we think of airports we think
of big crowds, fast walking people and sometimes just straight chaos. The one
thing that is known for calming nerves is music. Music is for the soul and when
you are stressed and running from terminal to terminal in gigantic airports,
music is the answer. Not all music will agree with all situations. Running
through an airport is most definitely a situation where you want to have music
set at the pace you are at. So, I am suggesting fast paced but yet entertaining
music. In my opinion, this list of ten songs will get you through any busy
airport with a smile on your face in the end; instead of crying in the bathroom
hoping things turned out differently. The songs I add in this list may not all
be upbeat songs but they are songs that will make you feel good.

What song has everybody jumping up and down and ready to drop all their adult responsibilities to run to the club? That song would be “Closer” by The Chainsmokers featuring Halsey. This song is the definition of catchy. Just from listening to it one time, I have the chorus memorized, and this is not a joke. “Closer” came out towards the end of the summer and very quickly became the end of the summer anthem. It gives off a very free spirit and a Saturday night out with your girls kind of feel. According to an online music review site, “Your EDM, in three days of being released the song made it to ITunes #1 and a short time after that it had the #1 spot on the Billboards 100. Seems like The Chainsmokers took the world by surprise. But I can’t say I’m shocked.
