A PLAYLIST FOR THE AGED

My husband and I lived through the pandemic so far, but it has taken its toll. We feel as old as the hills. Do you? So here’s a playlist I curated just for those of us who feel especially hard-hit by the pandemic:

• Everybody Hurts, by R.E.M.
• There Goes My Life, by Kenny Chesney
• I Don’t Dance, by Lee Brice
• Safety Dance, by Men Without Hats
• Hips Don’t Lie, by Shakira
• All You Can Eat, by The Fat Boys
• Last Night I Didn’t Get to Sleep at All, by the Fifth Dimension
• Walk, Don’t Run, by the Ventures
• Somebody Get Me a Doctor, by Van Halen
• Running on Empty, by Jackson Browne
• I’m So Bald, by Mr. Mason
• The Denture Song, by Randy Miller
• Stayin’ Alive, by the BeeGees
• Heart Attack, by Demi Lovato

I had to do it.
