Being seen is step one. Being heard, step two. Every human being deserves both.

Nice tunes. Some I forgot were great songs like "Your Heart".

The vintage valentine's are so bad! And I'm so thankful that you sent me on that journey lol

Funny enough, I find that most of the music that comes to mind when I think “love songs” is stuff about heartbreak. That said, I find something endlessly endearing and lovely about Bobbie Gentry’s “Sunday Best.”

Ah, Bobbie! I love her so much. Great pick!

"Stuff about heartbreak" could be a genre unto itself, eh? I had to make a surprisingly concerted effort to lean away from those in creating this playlist. I've often suspected that my own personal propensity for melodrama comes from equal fascination with both sides of the love song coin.

Happy to help out where I can. *evil laugh*

That CD is one of the chosen few that has lived in my car for roughly the past decade.

And truly. Thank you for the reminder that listening AND hearing are two of our greatest superpowers. <3
