I’m making a playlist of happy, joyful, hopeful songs for 2021. I’m going to stick this playlist on shuffle every morning as I get up and get ready, to lift mood and get me going on the right foot. Songs to help me remember the world is a good place and I’m glad to be in it.
Suggestions, anyone?

Can anyone suggest
