If this quarantine business has you feeling stir-crazy, I have just the playlist for you.
Because I’m also stir-crazy and in need of some (inconsequential) drama.
This playlist seems to help with that. There are lots of fun diva, dramatic songs on this list. There are also some up-tempo, motivational songs (for your short power walks at the park) and slower paced songs (for when you don’t feel like getting out of bed). You’ll also notice that there are a lot of familiar songs from previous playlists here too — they’re here because they’re musical comfort food and they keep me happy. Hopefully, they’ll cheer you up too.
