We've all done it. You've got a crush, you make them a mixtape or playlist, and you include a song to telegraph your feelings, something that lets them know you're hoping this friendship turns into more.

What's the song? How did it turn out? Record a voice memo telling us all about it and email it to us, at allsongs@npr.org. We may use your song and story in an upcoming Valentine's Day edition of the show. (You can also just write us an email or fill out the form below, if talking isn't your thing.)

The independent journalism and non-commercial programming you rely on every day is in danger.

If you鈥檙e reading this, you believe in trusted journalism and in learning without paywalls. You value access to educational content kids love and enriching cultural programming.

Now all of that is at risk.

Federal funding for public media is under threat and if it goes, the impact to our communities will be devastating.

Together, we can defend it. It鈥檚 time to protect what matters.

Your voice has protected public media before. Now, it鈥檚 needed again. Learn how you can protect the news and programming you depend on.
