Songs For When You Are In A Bad Mood

[boidiva02]

I'm interested to know what songs (or artists) you listen to when you are in a bad mood, a funk, a depression or just generally feeling down.... 

Is there a song that instantly lifts your mood? or just helps you wallow in self-pity for awhile?  Whatever the song is, whatever it is, let us know! 

Here are a few I turn to when I'm feeling out of sorts:

John Mayer, Stop This Train

Monica, Don't Take It Personal (Just One Of Dem Days) 

spotify:track:0JCAezTC5IlK1a9o0YBEsD"small"

Eve 6, Leech 

spotify:track:2eux7pP201ITBNG1b1KLv2"small"

great voice and awesome vibe

[Hooligan]

I usually jam some face-melting metal to get the bad vibes out. My go-to playlist:

I think particular songs can really help with being in a 'bad' mood. And rather than trying to listen to something necessarily uplifting, it can be great to really explore those feelings more with similar music.

For example, one day I was feeling really angsty and annoyed, and this Cloud Nothings album really helped!! It's also just generally flawless.

Also Jon Hopkins can channel some similar vibes but through a more chilled out electronic palette. Intense and beautiful industrial sounds though.

If you want to just feel happy though, you can't really beat classic house!

I hope you enjoy 🙂

@JordanOakley there's definitely different approaches, side-stepping the mood, or exhausting it. i agree there's nothing wrong with exploring those feelings though.

that said, cloud nothings are impeccable all round and immunity is one of my favourite ambient albums of all time - good picks!

For diving in:

For zen:

@crematedman thanks 😄 they are amazing albums aren't they? I agree, there are different ways of responding to bad moods. Thankfully we have music to lead us in every imaginable direction. 

I love your picks too! Nick Mulvey is great.

Creep by Radiohead

[mekleiber]

This is my go-to whenever I'm feeling down. It's basically a swaddle—very soothing!

This one! You Make My Dreams

and Some Kind of Wonderful because it's impossible to be unhappy while listening to Hall & Oates or Betty Who!
