30 Days of Me: Lou's Day 10

Posted by Lou. The time is 9.00am London UK.

Songs you listen to when you are happy, sad, bored, hyped, mad

Happy
I have no specific happy music, as I like to think that "quite happy" is my basic state in life (?!). I guess if I was at home by myself in a good mood and wanted some music on loudly to sing along to in a happy state of mind, I'd probably put on the Beatles Love album.

Sad
Radiohead's No Surprises and The Beatles' While My Guitar Gently Weeps. (Or maybe Josh Groban's version of Smile, if I was sad and wanting to feel cheered up.)

Bored
I would go for a shuffle of all my music if I was bored, or if at home I might put on Les Miserables (10th Anniversary concert version).

Hyped
Missy Elliot's Lose Control, or Jay-Z's Empire State of Mind. Note that these are actually the only two hip hop songs I have on my entire iPod yet are the songs I would reach for, which does make me wonder if actually in making a little effort I could become a fan of the genre?

Mad
Glee. (The uppity songs, not the "heartfelt" selection from their "issues" episodes.)
