Music for All Moods & Moments in Life
Quarantine is obviously a time where people’s emotions are running high, we’re feeling isolated from others, and virtual communication is really our only way of staying connected. Many of us are working, maybe remotely, still under the same stresses and pressures if not more, while some of us are unemployed whether it’s temporary or permanent. Under any other circumstances, life can also just throw some major curve-balls and sometimes music can be a really therapeutic way to cope and handle what you’re going through, whether it’s a chronic illness or critical medical diagnosis, a change in your personal or professional life, relationship woes, personal gains, and more, there is usually a song to fit the moment in time.
With that said, after a long drive yesterday I had cycled through a pretty large playlist of music that covered almost all the bases and decided to put a “Playlist Post” together for all of you. It’s got a mix of some good ‘ole classics, some serious 90s throwbacks, hits from today, moody ballads, and more for your listening pleasure.
