3 Chord Thursday Let It Go!

Thursday 23rd June 2022 is Let It Go Day. Guess what? We will celebrate with songs about letting go and moving on, which might require you to say no to let go. It could also be about decluttering to become a minimalist, saying good-bye, not worrying, and not letting something annoy you. Are you ready?
