This Valentine’s Day, we’re reminded of loves lost, gained, cherished, and forgotten. You might want some music to celebrate a relationship on February fourteenth or you might want to sing along to anything but love songs. Whether you’re dating, single, in love, or heartbroken, this playlist has you covered!

For Love Birds:

When creating this playlist, I thought of the excitement surrounding a crush. There are so many possibilities that are both scary and amazing. Most of all, you feel so many different emotions when you have a crush– some of which can’t be better expressed than through song.
