Choosing Harvard, Princeton or Stanford?

I am a prospective undergraduate student and my top three college choices are Stanford, Harvard and Princeton. I see a lot of posts asking for which of these are better for science and math, but I’m actually on the other end of the spectrum; I am considering majoring in English / comparative literature, I love music and would like to pursue this at college, and I also have an avid interest in Spanish and would possibly even like to take up learning Italian! Having said this I am very open to trying lots of new things - I think psychology could be something I’d enjoy.
I’ve heard that Stanford is the most fun, and obviously the weather there beats the east coast, but then some people say Princeton is more focused on undergraduate? I can’t imagine that Stanford or Harvard would inhibit me in any way though, they’re two of the best schools in the world!
Would really appreciate anybody’s opinion on the three colleges in terms of their humanities and arts reputations and courses, thank you!
