Here are some more suggestions to lift the spirits.
Nothing is In Vain – MLT
As the lyrics say, “There is Sunshine after rain”. I always find this song so uplifting. Nothing is in Vain.

Symphony No 6 “Pastoral” – Beethoven
In Vancouver the local major Symphony Orchestra (The VSO – Vancouver Symphony Orchestra), performed this to an empty concert hall and played it on the local radio stations and streamed it online to get people to decompress and regain perspective from all the troubling events in the world today.

Good topic idea Jung, in agreement, All MLT songs whether their own originals or their rendition covers, it’s “Postivity – pealing”, and any song out there from past /present that offers up Postivity Vibes… That’s what needed in all our lives at the moment…. ?☮️

Here’s one I’d LOVE Mona & Lisa to cover someday, “Better Things” by the Kinks!

The Story of the Warrior’s son
There was a warrior who had a fine stallion.
Everybody said how lucky he wasMaybe the warrior said
One day the stallion ran off.
The people said the warrior was unluckyMaybe the warrior said
Next day the stallion returned leading a
String of fine ponies
The people said it was very lucky!Maybe the warrior said
Later the warriors son was thrown from one
Of the ponies and broke his leg.
The people said it was unluckyMaybe the warrior said
The next week the chief led a war party
Against another tribe.
Many young men were killed.
But because of his broken leg, the warrior’s
Son was left behind and so was spared.-Northern Exposure

I recommend headphones, dim the lights, and crank it up. If it’s a clear night, go look up at the stars! Chill out! ?
