I’ve given a lot of thought to this throughout my life, and I must instead give you a playlist: Little Bitty Pretty One (the Matilda song), Ain’t No Mountain High Enough, Int’l Players Anthem, and the soundtracks for Sister Act 1 and 2. Is that not the feel-good playlist of the century?!
What’s the longest. you’ve gone without sleep and why?
