What songs do you like to listen to when you're feeling down? Which of your favorite songs help relieve the pain inside?
I listen to music that brings back memories.
Ironically, that includes Tom Petty, The Smashing Pumpkins, and Pearl Jam.
I really doubt that those will necessarilly help other people though.
80s pop works best, I think.
I'll get out my B-52s and my various artist tracks. Jenny (8675309). Picks me right up.
If that doesn't work, I've heard that AC/DC works real well for some people.
I'll listen to Evanescence, Hoobastank, Lost Prophets, Crossfade, Linkin Park*really helps esspecially when I'm angry One Step Closer helps drive out anger*, um...what else? Oh yeah, for when I;m sad, I usually listen to Trapt, Switchfoot or whatever CD I have in, but it always leads back to Linkin Park because I'll end up angry. *shrugs*
Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata
Seriously. When I'm in certain moods, I just put it on loop.
Any music as long as it's good.
If I'm angry I'll probably listen to something like Richthofen, Die Allergie or Totenmond.
Linkin Park, Evanescence, and Sum 41, anythin that I think is good with me. Sometimes keeps my mind off things.
Welcome to the Jungle by Guns n' Roses. Actually anything off of their first album, but that song especially.
Nothing can make me smile when I'm down like listening to Tiny Dancer by Elton John. Lots of great memories attached to that song...
All three movements?Quote:
Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata
Seriously. When I'm in certain moods, I just put it on loop.
And personally I listen to classical alot when I want to mellow out. In fact right now i am listening to the air on G string.
No, the MP3 I have is only the first movement. I think. Though I do have several classical CDs with Beethoven on them. I never even think to use my 60 CD stereo though. xDQuote:

bad moods: linkin park :P
sad boods: simple and clean from Kingdom hearts.
happy moods: anything that dosn't make me feel sad :)
I don't have just songs that usually help me out when I'm peeved off or whatnot, there's several bands that I listen to calm me down.
I find that listening to Múm, Explosions In The Sky and Stars often helps me quite a bit because their music is all kind of dreamy-ish. Especially Múm and Stars.
Chopin was my favorite when I was a kid, actually.Quote:

When I'm angry I listen to Throw it All Away (Sonic Adventure 2), World Revolution (Chrono Trigger), Golden Queen Galaxia (Sailor Moon), and many of the Final Fantasy battle themes. These songs really ease it all.
I agree. I like Eyes On Me alot.Quote:

Certain J-pop songs.
"Madhouse" by Anthrax
"Some Kind Of Monster" by Metallica, just because Hetfield trying to rap sounds humorous.
Other songs that I'm too tired to list right at this minute.
Depends what's depressed me. When I was younger and wasted my time pining after people out of my league it was Goo Goo Dolls - Iris but now I'm a bit older and just get angry at things instead, bit of Pete Yorn normally calms me down, or some Ryan Adams.
