Public songbooks
I noticed that many of the songs that I like have similarities in thematic elements, so to narrow it down I put them in a songbook,. I tried to keep it short. Maybe you sometime I'll branch out to other more focused songbooks, for example there are probably many more songs with rain than any other element. Well, I tried, I hope you like it!
