Does anyone else celebrate Spotify Wrapped release day? I certainly do. It sits firmly in my top 5 holidays of the year (nestled between Groundhog Day and Thanksgiving). As I mentioned in a previous Roompact article, music is a powerful way to foster a unique connection with someone. Spotify Wrapped allows us all to share a bit about the artists we love and the songs that soundtracked our year. Beyond music, the statistics provided give us a cool snapshot into how we engage with our listening, and the experiences others have with their listening (I listened to 95,569 minutes of music this year, not that anyone asked).
In honor of one of my favorite offbeat holidays, I am giving to you, your Residence Life Wrapped 2025. Let’s see your stats through the year behind us and take a trip down memory lane. I hope you enjoy!
