#counteveryvote
Hi everybody. A lot of people are really down today. It's not like it was in 2016 when people were devastated... but in a way, I think people are more down right now because we've had four years of this and there is so much wrong in our country and in the world, and STILL there wasn't a blue landslide. My friends who work in the political field have urged me for a week, and they've urged me on this day, not to go to the dark place. They tell me it's not over yet, there are a lot of votes left to count. So I'm staying optimistic... I'm staying hopeful.
But I didn't have a story for today. There's nothing in my folder and nothing in the mental crockpot. So, on the spot, I decided to revisit the Pandemic Playlists I started doing when the virus hit New York in March and we all went into lockdown. I thought maybe I could find some things on Youtube to make ya'all day better.
I hope so.
These are some of the songs from Broadway and the club scene that have made days better for me over the years - some are videos from the clubs, others are not, but all these artists have sung on the club and concert stages over the years, so let's blur those lines today, shall we?
Don't give up, kids. Keep hope high.
