Songs For When You Are In A Bad Mood

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

No matter what mood I'm in, I just love to listen it

btw Panic! At the Disco did a great job in this cover

I actually made a playlist kind of centered around this, it's called "In The Rain", I tried to make it have songs that you would play or could hear playing when it's raining outside and you feeling down

When I'm in a bad mood because somebody doesn't pay the debt...

This is a playlist I made on 8tracks of songs that helped me through hard times. They aren't songs for when you need a pick-me-up, or for wallowing in self pity either... they're more for reflection and sort of sitting with your feelings and letting it be.

I also tend to listen to Wild Nothing when I'm upset. I find it very soothing, like balm for a chapped soul.

@flypaperflowers I love the personal touch, beautiful playlist ^_^

 

that approach works for me too

@crematedman Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it and happy to share.

That was a fun song!

If you want happy music to lift yourself up, I use "Good Mood Food":

and if you wanna listen to match that feeling, there's "Mellow Melancholy Mood":

bit o' swing to lighten the mood

Breakeven by the script

The song title fits perfectly for me.

I devour information like a rabid animal and then often wish I hadn't. Yep, that can put me in a bad mood of a special kind, but music is a good balm! Love me some Tame Impala!
