For this Valentine’s Day playlist, I wanted to make a collection of older love songs ranging from the late fifties early sixties, all the way to the nineties. I love the way older love songs sound and make me think about how love is the one constant we can share with people in the past. I like to think of Valentine’s Day as a way to think of all the people in my life I love whether it be friends, partners, family, or even pets and take it as a time to tell the people I love that I appreciate them for being in my life. When I listen to this playlist, I think of my friends that contributed to the playlist, my pets which definitely have their picky music tastes, and my partner who I love very much. I hope this playlist fills you with nostalgic happiness and love this Valentine’s Day!
