Relaxed; Radiohead (again) - Treefingers or Pink Floyd - Us and Them or even Sigur Ros - Starálfur
Crazy; System of a Down - Soil or the Locust - Safety Second, Body Last (Again an album, but two songs that sound like one)
Funny; The Beatles - I Am The Walrus (probably put that under stoned)
Dark; Sikth - Tupelo
Strange; Radiohead (again, sorry!) - Kid A or Serart - Cinema.


List your own emotionally listen music! Although some of my list is probably lists of musical catagories as apossed to emotion... maybe not. Take what you will out of this, hopefully you like my taste

I like your taste in music.

When I'm happy, I'll listen to any music I like. Just anything

When I'm sad or mad, I'll listen to ballads or any slow song, don't know why but they have a calming effect on me

thanks

I'm the same really, I really like epic, dark, slow songs. I suppose I like depressing songs aswell really. I just really love hearing loads of emotion in music. It makes feel all.. ooooh shakey and that.

In contrast I also love to hear apsolutely mental music, with crazy phsyco singers and crazy loud super mental guitars/beats/bass whatever. I suppose that's quite emotional aswell.

I don't like pirate metal/classical metal/folk metal though... i think that's all pretty rubbish. Or country, really boring.

There are a thousand other Zappa songs I could have mentioned, but I'm particularly loving What's New in Baltimore? at the moment.

It doesn't matter what other people think of your taste. You have no responsibility to share the preferences of other people.

Angry, I mean really furious, rage angry, enough to want to kill someone: Eminem's "Still Don't Give a f**k"

I don't know. Specific songs seem to have very specific moods. I think It's too complicated to write down in any meaningful way. I tend to get single songs that become the theme for a certain feeling for a while, and then the feeling passes out of my life, and the song loses it's relevance and also passes.

Happy: "My Boy Lollipop" - Nikki Webster, "Break Your Heart" - Taio Cruz feat. Ludacris

Strange: "Macho Mozart (Dreamdance Version)" - Trance Attack, "Nightshade (Spray Mix)" - Mezzo & Melody

I tend to listen to metal and classical with my emotions. I connect pretty deeply with music, and I often use metal and/or classical to calm down or cheer myself up. Not death metal, though. Power or symphonic metal, i.e. Nightwish, Sonata Arctica, DragonForce, etc.

all human-created music affects my emotions to some degree. however, machine-created music doesn't, or human-created music which emulates machine music.
