Don't read too much into that title, it's just a lyric from one of the works of art on this playlist. I told you I'd have a painfully emotional collection of music for you eventually. It snuck up on me, I didn't expect to feel inspired to put this playlist together today but I woke up and it was the first thing I wanted to do. I know what you're thinking -- it's a three day week, Christmas is on Friday and this girl is blasting out the most heartbreaking playlist possible?
I would say I'm sorry but I'm really not. Not everyone can just turn on the excitement and warmth that holidays are meant to bring. There is a much more realistic side to this time of the year... it can bring up challenging memories for some, many of us are not able to see all of our loved ones this holiday season, and some of us are struggling in general at the tail end of a really demanding year.
I'm not asking you to be sad and listen to this playlist in some "misery loves company" kind of way. I hope you all have a joyous & restful holiday season - I'm just not a Christmas music person, I'm a melancholy music person so this is my holiday gift to you.
Thank you all for riding with me!
