Empty-Metric

Most of mine are from the soundtrack to A Beautiful Mind, composed by James Horner, so when it's a soundtrack song, I'll just put "ABM" in parentheses:
1. "Closing Credits" (ABM, track #16)
2. "Saying Goodbye to Those You So Love" (ABM, track #12)
3. "A Kaleidoscope of Mathematics" (ABM, track #1)
4. "Come Rain or Come Shine"- Frank Sinatra
5. "Over and Over (The World We Knew)"- Frank Sinatra
6. "Creating Governing Dynamics" (ABM, track #4)
7. "September Song"- Frank Sinatra
8. "The Mighty Hercules"- Howard Shore (from the soundtrack to The Aviator)
9. "There Is No Great Genius Without Some Form of Madness"- Howard Shore (from the soundtrack to The Aviator)
10. "This Is All I Ask"- Frank Sinatra
---
As you can see, my musical tastes are VERY limited... I listen to all of these when I'm down to make me even more depressed. Strange, I know, but I like fully experiencing the sadness to get out the tension/pressure that builds up in me. These are songs I stim to, most notably the first three.

Dear reader,

Here it is. My top 10 for when I feel the blue mood all day.

1) Dixie Hummingbirds (w/ Guest Bobby Womack) "Everything's
Allright". From the 70th Anniversary album. All about finding GOD & becoming a better person. Never fails to make me feel at least a little better.

2) Miles Davis "Miles Runs The Voodoo Down" from "b*****s Brew".
There's something special about this one that makes me not just wish I was not white but makes me think I'm not white

3) Living Colour "Information Overload" from "Time's Up" Not only does this one rock but it has the lines "Sometimes I feel like my mind will explode/sometimes I feel like I've got no control/sometimes I wish I had a heart made of steel/sometimes I wish I couldn't feel" then "My blues so deep you might think they're black". With respect to Guitar genius Vernon Reid I couldn't have put it better myself.

4) Alison Krauss (& The Choir) "Down To The River To Pray" from the "o Brother Where Art Thou" Soundtrack album. She was thinner by then & blonde. Yet instead of being a sex object she is convincing in the role of a female minister leading her congregation to divine elation.

5) Jimmy Smith "Midnight Special" from the album of the same title
Stanley Turrentine's saxophone should be studied by all bluesy jazz musicians who've been in this genre since.

6) Bob Dylan "Cold Irons Bound" from "Time Out Of Mind". Not only do I love how this song rocks out more than anything else on the album. This late after his Christian period he wrote "I went to church on Sunday as she passed by/my love for her has taken a long time to die". The flesh & The Lord in conflict. He could be speaking for us all.

7) Bob Dylan "Lord Protect My Child" from "The Bootleg Series, volume one". Not only is it a fine bluesy groove. Any good, devoted parent can relate to his concern for his son. In the midst of earthly danger. His finest Christian-period lyric. Reminds me of my own parents, and all other parents who do their job.

Nina Simone "Backlash Blues" from ? (don't know album). She not only set Langston Hughes' best poem to its only logical melody. She gave her finest vocal performance.

9) Take 6 "Time After Time (The Savior Is Waiting)" from "So Much 2 Say" A wondrous plea to the wonder of making a big step in faith made stirring and moving by 6 voices alone.

10) Charlie Daniels "Somebody Was Praying For Me" from "How Sweet The Sound" He uses the finest elements of outlaw country to detail being saved from the outlaw lifestyle...forever. Transcendant.

But then again, so are the other 9 songs.

Listen happy, readers as you seek them out.

Virtually anything by the Beatles

Rock Around the Clock, Bill Haley
Music from the soundtrack of Four Minutes. Very uplifting. The association with Roger Bannister and the idea that nothing is impossible is very heartening to me.

Everybody Wants to Be A Cat, from the Aristocats.
