What music should we wake up to in 2015?
Most of us ring in the new year swinging and dancing to loud music. So Preksha Malu asked some musicians and composers to tell us what music should we wake up to in 2015
The new year should begin on a soulful and happy note, with a lot of peace and positivity. Start the year with the thought of love and respect for all human beings, and remember to keep faith in humanity rather than in religion.

If you are partying all night on the 31st, then the new year should begin with some quiet. The year should start on an inspiring note and no number of songs are enough for a day. I listen to music across genres around the world and I've selected a few for 2015. Kun Faya Kun by AR Rahman, Javed Ali and Mohit Chauhan from the movie RockstarKhwabon Ke Parindey by Mohit Chauhan, Alyssa Mendonsa Movie Zindagi Na Milegi DobaraMerry Go Round by Kacey Musgraves—Neeti Mohan, Pop and playback singer and actor
By the morning of 1 January, you will likely be tired of listening to dhinchak music. It is also likely that you will wake up with a hangover. Startinh the year with positive thoughts and by being thankful might be a good idea.
