Comment:

For my sister. She is not adventuresome in her music taste and she probably hasn't heard a lot of this. I've used all of these songs on other mixes but collected them together in one place because they share a sense of peaceful serenity about love and life. Sad but not crying, melancholy but hopeful, dark but looking toward dawn. Maybe a little pop bombastic in places but I think she'll like it.

ditto on track 9. Have another listen to Jackson Brown's Late for the Sky. A very melancholy feel imo.

My best wishes to your sister. Have you ever heard "Everyone Can Fly" by Gigolo Aunts? It would fit nicely on this mix, which I like a lot.

I am pleased to see people re-using songs - I think so much has to do with context. I send good thoughts and wishes to you and to your sister.
