Still a little headachy so I'm just going to continue this musical journey.
I think I forgot to mention that playlists are so subjective. For me, this is mostly an up-tempo playlist using many of my favorite songs. Although once I hit a threshold of skipping the song multiple times, I delete it from the list. Example: Justin Timberlake. It's just been played SO MUCH everywhere that I'm over it.
I mentioned that I'll get songs from the ticktock and television. I use the shazam app then add it to my music app on my phone. The other resource would be Road Trip Radio on Sirius/XM because it makes these lists seem normal and orderly. The point being is please, don't think "Oh she's got such eclectic taste." No, I choose music randomly based on how it makes me feel while being home all day, every day with the radio playing. If I find myself singing it or worse: dancing, then I add it to the list.
Also, I had the realization that the teenaged me would be horrified at the inclusion of country and dance music and the lack of hair bands on this list. I have realized just how much I like a lot of the New Wave and Punk in the 80's however.
If this isn't enough, I've made a playlist page on the pinterest with the intention of returning and building playlists based from them. And that's...tsk...adorable. I will screenshot lists when someone has a favorite song debate/discussion on the twitter. Someday I'll look at them again.
Meanwhile, play these with the volume up and using earbuds/headphones. I guarantee it will lift your spirts. Well, unless you hate the song then it won't.
