Celebrating the 4th of July is one of the highlights of summer, and if you’re going to be lighting off fireworks, you’ll need some patriotic songs to go along.

Oh, to be on the long and winding road.

You’ve got chestnuts roasting on an open fire, the mistletoe is hung and the snacks are out, but one thing is missing: Some classic Christmas tunes to set the mood.

Remember way back in the day when you’d make a cassette tape or CD with a playlist for a significant other or a friend?

It doesn’t matter if you’re head over heels in love, single and loving it, heartbroken or ready to set the mood -- we have a playlist for however you are celebrating Valentine’s Day.

Let’s be serious, we’re all in a space mood after watching NASA astronauts launch from Kennedy Space Center last month. Whether you’re taking your shuttle out for a Sunday drive, taking a road trip, or blasting off to the stars -- a playlist is absolutely necessary to make the trip memorable. NASA Astronauts Bob Behnken and Doug Hurley made a playlist for their 3-mile ride to Launch Complex 39A before liftoff. You’ll hear melodies like “Space Oddity”, “Rocket Man” as well as “A Sky Full of Stars” made famous by Coldplay. Buckle up and don your space suit -- or whatever NASA apparel you have close by, as we dive into our space jams.

Here’s what SpaceX astronauts listened to on their way to the launch padPublished: May 28, 2020, 10:51 amWe all know how important it is to have a good playlist accompany you on your drive, but what would you select if you were about to launch into space?

Veteran NASA astronauts Bob Behnken and Doug Hurley are the lone passengers who will be on board the Crew Dragon spacecraft. You don’t have to be a NASA aficionado to know that this launch from NASA’s KSC will be history-making. For starters, this is the first time astronauts will be launched into space from American soil since 2011. Behnken and Hurly created their own playlist for their 3-mile ride out to Kennedy Space Center’s Launch Complex 39A and it consisted of three well-known songs. pic.twitter.com/YHQ2kUFYST — NASA (@NASA) May 27, 2020AC/DC - Back In BlackThis song is more than fitting considering Hurley and Benken are veteran astronauts.

Disney tunes have a way of getting us out of the rut we’re in and putting a smile on our face. Each music provider has a Disney playlist filled with hundreds of songs from every Disney film known to man. Having the right playlist is an important task -- and choosing the right playlist shouldn’t be taken lightly. Everyone should have a Disney playlist saved, ready to be played at any moment. The playlist is a melting pot of classic Disney hits, Disney covers and songs you can hear when visiting a Disney theme park.
