Why do the blues make me feel better?

Asked by marinelife (62485points) September 18th, 2011

I was kind of down this morning.

Domestic problems had re-emerged.

I was not going to get to watch football with my husband (he’s working).

Then I got the idea to listen to the blues. Big Mama Thornton, John Lee Hooker, Willie Dixon, Howlin’ Wolf, etc. And, as always, when I do, my mood lifts.

How come? Doesn’t it seem counter-intuitive?
