Music has so much power. The power to create emotions, to tell a story, and perhaps just put someone into a better mood. The last two years were a time when the world outside was dark and bleak. Many took refuge inside and turned to things like music to get them through it all. Through my REplay Hope playlist, I tell the story of those emotions that a pandemic created in many of us. While times were low, and sorrow was felt worldwide, hope never died. 

Each song I picked holds a special connection to that strange relationship between sorrow and hope. It features songs like, "My Silver Lining" by First Aid Kit, "Dreams" by The Cranberries, as well as "Into the Unknown" Panic at the Disco version. Future "songs" that also embody the feeling that this playlist conveys could be; "Repeat the Hope," and "Climbing the Unexpected." All of these songs seem to play into those thoughts and emotions that ran through all of our heads through this crazy time in our history. 

Listen to the REplay Hope Playlist on Spotify to take a step back from reality and remember that feeling of hope.
