Most days, I create the playlist myself.
Some days, I get by with help from friends and family.
This is one of those days.
The first song was added to the list when Alonzo posted it this morning.
The middle section is half of a playlist, Love & Hope in the Age of Coronavirus by Ester. The second half will come tomorrow.
The final song was given to me by Sean as part of the Playbill 30-Day Song Challenge.
