Since you seemed to enjoy getting to know our musical tastes, we’ll be bringing you some curated playlists from individual team members.
This week’s playlist was created by Hannah, Choirs Coordinator. She says, “I created this playlist many years ago, to help on difficult mornings when enthusiasm was low. The original list lasts about 9 hours! I’ve not eliminated anything, even the songs that now make me raise an eyebrow at my somewhat dubious taste. I’ve listened to it so many times that each song just feels like it should follow the previous one now! I have new playlists for cheering myself up these days, but there’s a nice nostalgic element to this one.”
You can listen to it on Spotify or you can view the full list below.
