What song(s) immediately alter your mood?

[Urinal Mint]

Every time I put on Dave Matthews Band's "Bartender" and listen to the jam for the last 5 minutes of the song, it nearly brings me to tears. I don't know what it is about the song, but it just makes me remember how depressed I used to be. I dunno, I guess it makes me sad about how I used to see myself.

Anybody else have certain songs do this to them?

 

[Viper GTS]

Couple of Garth songs, It's Been a While from Staind's new disc.

Viper GTS

 

[pulpp]

anything by Ace of Base always makes me feels better right away

 

[viewton]

<< Couple of Garth songs, It's Been a While from Staind's new disc.
That is a GREAT song. Outside (especially the non-Studio version) is an Excellent song as well. >>



My big ones are Hey You and Comfortably Numb by Pink Floyd, as soon as I hear those songs I feel really relaxed.

Edit: Forgot I Will Survive, the Cake version. Reminds me of that wench that dumped me in HS, then wanted me back again. :frown:

 

[TheAvenger]

Hootie and the Blowfish: I only want to be with you (acoustic)

 

[snakesnfrogs]

&quot;Blow Up the Outside World&quot; from Soundgarden and &quot;Hooker WIth a Penis&quot; from Tool make me want to go kick somebody's ass

 

[GoldenBear]

Roseanne singing immediately makes me sterile.

 

[BreakApart]

Old school rap, it totally pisses me off.
The new stuff is really cool, but the old F-the-police stuff just gets me angry...


Good mood?
LutherV- this guy is soo smooth it's amazing... The true mac-daddy.

Being a eunuch, I think you're already sterile.

FAith Hill - There You'll Be

Inspiration all the way.

 

[Sketchy]

Leftfield - Songs of Life... so relaxing at the beginning, and at the end I feel pumped up. Great song. Anything from Ministry of Sound's Chillout Session is also very relaxing if you like chillin' house music.

 

[loup garou]

<< Leftfield - Songs of Life >>



Awesome song.

For me, anytime I hear Halcyon by Orbital, I feel relaxed. Also Wish You Were Here by Pink Floyd makes me think of my gf if she's not around.

 

[mdennison]

wish you were here: pink floyd
desintigration: the cure

 

[Nestico]

Chicken Huntin' - Insane Clown Posse

 

[Urinal Mint]

<< Moby - Porcelain >>


Man, that song is absolutely incredible... always makes me feel introspective.

[CattyKathy]

It use to be 112 &quot;Cupid&quot; cuz it totally reminded me of my ex, but not anymore, we're really cool with each other...

Macy Gray &quot;I try&quot;, that so get me in the mood, like kinda a sad mood, it kinda describes me, how I try to deal with things and not able to turn away

 

[HansXP]

Dave Matthews - The Space Between
Cure - Pictures of You
Cure - Maybe Someday
Eve 6 - Here's To The Night
Train - Drops Of Jupiter
Filter - Take A Picture
Grant Lee Buffalo - Truly Truly
Grant Lee Buffalo - Testimony

There are a lot more, but those are just the ones I can think of off the top of my head.

 

[GTaudiophile]

Samuel Barber's Adagio for Strings (any version, but preferably the choral version entitled &quot;Agnus Dei&quot; by Robert Shaw and the ASO.) Try listening to that without crying!

On the lighter side, listening to the remix of &quot;Take On Me&quot; gets me happy really quick.

 

[Silverbullet28]

Violent Femmes - Blister in the Sun

This was one of my best friends favorite songs in high school. He died in a car wreck the summer after we graduated, so this song always reminds me of him.

[CuriousAndy]

Graduation by Vitamin C I'm not really into such cheesy pop artists but this song does a good job changing my mood.. about growing up.. missing my childhood and all.. This was also my HS prom song

Sensuality by ATB Techno artist.. but this song is more like intrumental/nature-like.. great song.. always gets me mesmerized..

Dreams by Cranberries Hands-down mood changer

Beautiful Strangers by Madonna Not a big madonna fan.. but this song has that certain ring that makes me feel serene..
