My music relieves my stress. With my music on, I can drive all day, work all night, and keep the bad thoughts away.
When my head gets stuck on a particularly annoying idea (or song), I start playing Louis Prima's "Basin Street Blues" in my head, and it all goes away.
When it gets too hot in summer, I play Quincy Jones' "Summer In The City" and I feel cooler. Lots cooler.
When it's too cold... well, almost anything Latin does the trick.
When I want to fantasize about the good life, I play Ray Charles' "Smack Dab In The Middle."
When I need a hit of the innocence of youth, I'm all set with Michael Jackson's "Ain't No Sunshine," or Raymond Scott's "Powerhouse."
Stress? I ain't got no steenkeeng stress! Ah-Ha ha ha ha ha ha!
