Music/musicians you cannot listen to & be in a bad mood at the same time? |
|
Here are the artists/genres I cannot listen to AND be in a bad mood at the same time:
1. Bob Marley/most reggae
2. Van Morrison
3. Ok, I'll admit this one--gulp--John Denver. I first heard "Rocky Mountain High" when I was a young kid and LOVED it. Also that sun on the water making me cry song. I would go around singing that as a kid and it always made me happy.
What are yours?

It's impossible to listen to anything from the "Beatlemania" era Beatles and not have a happy, goofy smile on your face...

definitely.
And let me add Peter, Paul and Mary. I heard them when I was very young all the time (semi-hippy parents) and I find their music very comforting.

Wow, haven't thought of them in a LOOONNG time, don't even know if they're still together, or what.
But try listening to lyrics like "bublesay bubleyuh" and staying miserable. Not going to happen.

Sometimes his songs make me cry though especially Sunshine on My Shoulder and Annie's Song. Beautiful music nothing to be ashamed of.
I don't see how I could be sad while listening to funk or disco music. Lately I've been on a Cher kick. :)
