A Twittertape to beat the Monday blues
This morning on Twitter, I asked people to submit their song to a mixtape to the theme:
Songs to beat the Monday blues?
Here are 22 songs handpicked to cheer you up on any given Monday.
One of the bands picked, Local Natives play The Academy 2, Dublin tomorrow night. WE SHOULD ALL GO. I’ve a feeling it’s going it be amazing.
