Justin Trudeau's summer playlist includes Drake, Shawn Mendes

If you're wondering what Justin Trudeau listens to in his downtime, look no further: the prime minister has released an official Spotify playlist.

Trudeau revealed his "PM Mix" by posting a link to the streaming service on Twitter Saturday. Many of the 39 tracks might be on your playlist, as well — Drake's Signs, Shawn Mendes's There's Nothing Holdin' Me Back and Alessia Cara's Scars to Your Beautiful are among them.

The list includes songs for just about any mood, including R.E.M's melancholy hit Everybody Hurts, K-OS's energetic tune Crabbuckit and the chart-topping remix of Luis Fonsi's Despacito, which features vocals from Justin Bieber.

"What am I listening to this summer? What should I be?" Trudeau posted on Twitter Saturday in both English and French with a link to his selections.

The prime minister might have taken a lead from former U.S. president Barack Obama, who released summer Spotify playlists in both 2015 and 2016. His 2016 list was among the most listened to on Spotify when it was released.

Obama's choices included Common, Janelle Monae and classic tunes by Stevie Wonder, Bob Dylan and Aretha Franklin.
