- Hello YouTube,
I asked a question on the internet which is always a thrill,
which was "What's a complement that you give to yourself?"
'Cause I was curious if there's ways
that we can speak kindly about ourselves to ourselves.
I am a huge fan of pop music
and one of the reasons why I love pop music is
that it can take a concept,
something that's important maybe for us to remember.
Something that makes us feel empowered
and it puts it in a little like sound bites
so that when we're, you know,
maybe feeling scared, feeling alone we can remember it.
I mean I don't know who's telling you to listen to pop music
but that's why I listen to pop music.
So I have been,
I have selected 27 of them.
I'm not sure If I'll get to all of them.
So I thought maybe I can take some of these,
and put them to a little, put some little melodies to them.
So that you don't forget them.
So that the next time you start to feel scared,
you start to feel uncomfortable or you forget
you can remember your little song.
So, let's begin.
Let's just find a little (guitar strums)
Ooh, that's loud.
