What music picks you up when you're feeling down?

logan_weapon_x · 07-21-2006, 09:55 AM

I know there's songs like rock or pop or whatever that can make you feel good, but I mean when you're feeling down about things. For me it would have to be:

Morrissey
Flaming Lips
The Eels
Johnny Cash

The Beatles always do it.

I do agree with you on the eels

Music is like booze. You should only indulge if you're already up.

"Aw, life is good! You'll never be a third as cool as Jimmy Page! John Bonham died by vomit! and you'll never, EVER write a song as good as this!"

Sounds like a real pick-me-up.

U.S War Machine · 07-21-2006, 10:09 AM

maybe alittle Styx

ILuvCyclops · 07-21-2006, 10:12 AM

The Smiths - especially The Boy With A Thorn In His Side

So I take it Zeppelin is the music you listen to when you're binge drinking late at night by yourself then

huskerwebhead · 07-21-2006, 10:18 AM

Tony C and the Truth - Kind of a blues/rock mix.
Tom Petty always helps too...great road trip music too.

nerp. That would be "Dixie Dregs", "Yes", "Devo", Bowie, "fIREHOSE" or "King Crimson"(80's incarnation).
Now shut up, I'm feeling a mood coming on.

Erzengel · 07-21-2006, 10:22 AM

Polka.

Mr. Credible · 07-21-2006, 10:25 AM

80's power-pop.

usually, men without hats.

Wilhelm-Scream · 07-21-2006, 11:03 AM

They had no "power".

Ronny Shade · 07-21-2006, 11:04 AM

Prince - Dirty Mind

logan_weapon_x · 07-21-2006, 11:08 AM

Why can there never just be a genuine thread on the hype. It has to always end up with some ass in friggin' clown shoes!

PLAS · 07-21-2006, 11:13 AM

The Flaming Lips last four albums (at war, yoshimi, the soft bulleting and zaireeka)
Sigur Ros second album
Elliot Smith's From A Basement On A Hill
The B-52's Cosmic Thing
