King Charles III just opened up about his taste in music in the Apple Music Broadcast—The King's Music Room. With a playlist comprising 17 songs from artists like Beyoncé, Bob Marley, Michael Bublé, Davido, Kylie Minogue, Daddy Lumba, and more to celebrate the Commonwealth Games.

He revealed his interest in music and the effect it can have on one's emotional well-being,

"Throughout my life, music has meant a great deal to me. I know that is also the case for so many others. It has that remarkable ability to bring happy memories flooding back from the deepest recesses of our memory, to comfort us in times of sadness and to take us to distant places. But perhaps, above all, it can lift our spirits to such a degree, and all the more so when it brings us together in celebration. In other words, it brings us joy."

After the first 15 songs, King Charles proceeded to play Beyoncé's 'Crazy in Love,' released in 2003.

"I'll leave you, if I may, with two final songs. First from a performer so exceptional that I just could not resist including her music. She performed this song at the then Prince's Trust Fashion Rocks concert in the Royal Albert Hall in 2003...the incomparable Beyoncé, with the song 'Crazy In Love."
