Answers
Melancholy, dark and angry for sure. I’ve preferred it that way for as long as I can remember. Been into Metal, Punk, Industrial or Goth stuff since Jr. high and it goes with all my moods. Admittedly I am enjoying more mellow folky music these days.
@forestGeek I mean what songs do you listen to in each of those moods :D
-When I’m down, I usually listen to more upbeat music, such as baroque classical music. The music of Lully is good for that.
-When I’m happy, I listen to happy-sounding music from any genre. I want celebration music. Something bubblegum-dancey by Aqua or Toy Box. Or a magnificent classical piece like Pines of Rome.
-When I’m angry, I listen to Danse Générale by Ravel. Fuck yeah. I swear this piece exists just for this purpose. I saw this in concert; I leapt out of my seat to clap for it.
-When I’m nostalgic, I listen to sentimental music like Le Jardin Feerique, or music that reminds me of a specific time in my life.
-When I’m feeling romantic, I listen to songs that make me think of my boyfriend like “I’m Like a Lawyer…” by Fall Out Boy or I’ll listen to romantic classical music.
-When I’m feeling a little sexy, I listen to sexy music like Eurodance or Japanese pop by Koda Kumi such as “Shake It”, “Taboo”, or “But”.
