When you are in a down mood, what kind of music do you listen to? Happy music? Or Sad?
Personally I listen to depressing music, it's strange, it kinda helps to have someone agree with me, ha. I don't know, but if I'm in a bad mood, I don't want to pop in some XTC or The Go Team. Happy music, when I'm sad, makes me angry. It's weird.
What's your story? And maybe some examples. Saint Vitus is my favorite depression music right now, because it kind of replaces the sadness with a slight bad ass vibe.

| | | | Ha, I just posted in that other thread in which you excused yourself to create this one that Marillion, though I love them, depresses me if I listen to them for too long.
Listening to Rush always pumps me up though. |

I try not to let my mood dictate what kind of music I hear.

I don't drink when I'm depressed, but it sure did feel good singing about it!

I couldn't stand listening to sad music because it made me feel worse and happy music was obnoxious. So all I listened to was Television's 'Marquee Moon' over and over again, particularly "Venus". It was cool, emotionless with a detached, nonchalant sense of superiority that was just perfect for how I felt. It was the musical equivalent of saying "Whatever, I'm too cool for this **** anyway." Which was exactly what I needed to hear.
