Over the years since his late teens, Wil amassed a collection of songs that he liked.  When leaving Earth to start his first Starfleet assignment on the USS Veritas, he took a copy of his collection on a PADD that he "acquired" from the Academy.  Those songs were transferred to his personal storage space on the ship's computer.  Whenever he is working in a Jeffries tube (especially on his own), he usually plays a song from his collection through a PADD, to break the silence.

Events that occur to Wil after he graduated from Starfleet Academy remind him of specific songs for various reasons.  Since joining the Veritas, Wil has found himself singing more than he ever did before in his life.
