Photo: Jim Harbaugh's Music Playlist Revealed from Chargers' Training Camp

Los Angeles Chargers head coach Jim Harbaugh has an eclectic personality, so it makes sense his music playlist would feature a wide range of styles.

The Chargers posted Harbaugh's playlist prior to Wednesday's practice which included selections from Phil Collins, Yo Gotti, Moneybagg Yo, Meek Mill and Def Leppard.

Harbaugh's musical taste is even more broad than this list would suggest. Leading up to the College Football Playoff Championship Game in January, multiple Michigan players talked about his love of "Defying Gravity" from the musical Wicked.

He also showed off his own voice in April by singing the Michigan fight song after Wolverines players Blake Corum, Roman Wilson and Zak Zinter were drafted back-to-back-to-back in the third round of the 2024 NFL draft.

It's not a surprise that Harbaugh's list would lean primarily into sounds of the 80s. He was in his late-teens when that decade began, played college football at Michigan in the mid-80s and was in the NFL by 1987.

Studies have shown the most important period for men in forming their musical taste is between the ages of 13 to 16. None of the songs on Harbaugh's list came out during that period of his life, but "In the Air Tonight" and "Eye of the Tiger" were released as singles before he turned 20.

Songs like "Eye of the Tiger" and "Dreams and Nightmares" have become staples at sporting events. The Philadelphia Eagles have used Meek Mill's song as their anthem since their run to Super Bowl 52 during the 2017 season.

Whether or not Harbaugh's diverse taste in music actually helps him as a coach could be debated, but his teams have always produced results. The 60-year-old has a 188-71-1 career record in 20 seasons between the NFL and college.

The Chargers will be happy if that trend continues as they look to rebound from a 5-12 record last season when Brandon Staley was their head coach for most of the year.
