"My Music Playlist" heading not showing

Anyone know why the My Music Playlist isn't showing? I updated it in the index.HTML file

const playlist = [
  ['So What', 'Miles Davis', '9:04'],
  ['Respect', 'Aretha Franklin', '2:04'],
  ['What a Wonderful World', 'Louis Armstrong', '2:21'],
  ['At Last', 'Ella Fitzgerald', '4:18'],
  ['Three Little Birds', 'Bob Marley and the Wailers', '3:01'],
  ['The Way You Look Tonight', 'Frank Sinatra', '3:21']
];

//let myArtists = `${playlist[0][1]}, ${playlist[1][1]}, ${playlist[5][1]}`;

function createListItems( arr ) {
  let items = '';
  for ( let i = 0; i < arr.length; i++ ) {
    items += `<li>${ arr[i][0] }, by ${ arr[i][1] } - ${ arr[i][2] }</li>`;
  }
  return items;
}

document.querySelector('main').innerHTML = `
  <ol>
    ${createListItems(playlist)}
  </ol>
`;

Mod edit: added markdown for code formatting. Check out the "markdown cheatsheet" linked below the comment box for tips on how to format your posts.

Hi Esther,

My guess would be that you have the heading inside of your <main> element. Setting the innerHTML property replaces all HTML inside of the element which would overwrite it. If that's the case just place your heading before <main> and it won't be overwritten. If it's not inside the element please post your HTML so I can have a look.
