MUSIC TO LIFT YOUR SPIRITS!

Todays music question is not who your favorite band is - but what music works when changing a mood, or getting you out of a funk.

i think its easy to think of music that accompanies being heart sick or depressed (the Smiths always come to mind). but what about the opposite?

To lift my spirits i usually go with dub reggae, or upbeat electronica like the Avalanches. I'll also play "honey bucket" by the Melvins to get me out of bed when the forces of lethargy are mounting.

Also just straight out fun music -- the b52s, Confidence Man, 100 gecs, the Ramones, etc.

i would also suggest going to Soundcloud, and entering this artist, Sybil, who is UK DJ, who makes some amazing music (under the classification of "deep mind' music).
the great music Kelefa Sannah suggested her to me, and a specific set of music called UTE mix, that takes me to a very calm and ambient space.
maybe tonight give that a whirl - go to soundcloud, and enter Sybil, UTE mix, and listen. its not what you would think of as traditional music. Its something more immersive and combines old and new sounds of your life.

so what are your suggestions and why?

hope you're well!

A man suffered a serious heart attack while shopping in a store. The store clerk called 911 when they saw him collapse to the floor. The paramedics rushed the man to the nearest hospital where he had emergency open heart bypass surgery. He awakened from the surgery to find himself in the care of nuns at the Catholic Hospital. A nun was seated next to his bed holding a clipboard loaded with several forms, and a pen.

She asked him how he was going to pay for his treatment. Do you have health insurance? she asked.

He replied in a raspy voice, "No health insurance."

The nun asked, "Do you have money in the bank?"

He replied, "No money in the bank."

"Do you have a relative who could help you with the payments?" asked the irritated nun.

He said, "I only have a spinster sister and she is a nun."

The nun became agitated and announced loudly, "Nuns are not spinsters! Nuns are married to God."

"Perfect. Send the bill to my brother-in-law."
