When you're not feeling your best, music always helps. The first collection of songs are slower paced, with heavier subject matter. Hopefully, you can connect with the lyrics and relate your current emotions to the songs. The second collection of songs are upbeat, and some of them consist of more lighthearted lyrics. The purpose of this playlist is to bring you out of your bad mood - sometimes you need a pick-me-up, and a playlist of fun songs can be the perfect remedy. Here's to our bad days, and always remember that it only gets better.
