I like my Sunday easy and slow. I’m talking hot cup of coffee, stay-in-bed-until-noon kind of slow. So, if you’re reading this from the comforts of your comforter, I thought I’d take the liberty of curating a playlist to keep you in that easy Sunday mood:
I wanna be free to know the things I do are right … Easy by Lionel Richie
Got no needs to do, no promises to keep … The 59th Street Bridge Song (Feelin’ Groovy) by Simon & Garfunkel
Driving slow on Sunday morning and I never want to leave … Sunday Morning by Maroon 5 live on Walmart Soundcheck
All the vampires walkin’ through the valley move west down Ventura Boulevard…. Free Fallin’ by Tom Petty, performed by John Mayer live at the Nokia Theater
