Valentine’s Day is the time to reflect and show love to your partner, friends, and family. However,
for some it can be a time of heartache and sadness. I wanted this playlist to capture the range of
emotions that Valentine’s Day brings. This playlist is everyone, showcasing the ups and downs of
love through an alternative lens. With a range of songs for all listeners, it is perfect for listening to
with a friend or at home in solitude. Even if there’s been heartbreak and loneliness in your life, love
is always there, even when you don’t feel it, and I wanted this playlist to remind people of that.
