Say you're stressed, you've had a bad day.

You're all pent up with rage/or depression. What song(s) do you know that could help you release it all?

For my it would be 1979- Smashing Pumpkins

Hahahaha. I thought about that, too, after I read it a couple of times.

I once fought someone to the death to the tune of "Drop Dead Gorgeous".

Hearbeat by Blackbird Blackbird.
Lindisfarne by James Blake
And this video of Baths is nothing short of beautiful.

As Mars, I have many too.
Life in Technicolor-Coldplay
Lovers in Japan-Coldplay
Death and all His Friends-Coldplay
The Beatles-Blackbird
Any red is a link.

Love this song, I could never get tired of it.

The song in my signature is unbelievably calming...

THIS.

Hm, I've got quite a lot of stuff for helping me on a stressful day.

To name a few:

Ready to Strike ~ Firewind
Revelation ~ Metalium
Savage Souls ~ Mystic Prophecy
Domination ~ Symphony X
Destiny ~ Stratovarius
Onwards ~ Triosphere
Silent Rage ~ Allen-Lande
Scales of Justice ~ Avantasia
Speedhoven ~ Edguy
Reign of Terror ~ Rhapsody of Fire
From the Shadows ~ Tarot
Into the Storm ~ Blind Guardian
Atomic Firelight ~ Pagan's Mind
Losing Faith ~ Cloudscape
Heavy Metal Axes ~ White Skull
Death ~ Dark Moor
Meaning of Life (Get Psycho) ~ Disturbed
Never Let It Go ~ Mushroomhead
Wasted Time ~ Heavenly
The Madness of the Crowds ~ Helloween
Stormrider ~ Iced Earth
Silent Goddess ~ Kamelot
No One Lives Forever ~ Silent Force
Blood in, Blood Out ~ Royal Hunt

I could seriously go on, but the main point is, I believe the best release for stress, is to blast out the speakers

I can't name any of the songs. I'll just tell you they are by GWAR. Youtube them (and they are definitely not safe for work/children/anyone). Offensive as heck. Makes me feel good.

Killing All The Flies - Mogwai.

Pretty much any of the battle themes in my video game soundtrack library, but especially this.

Trance.

Gets me out of it and then proceeds to throw me into that feeling of peace and weightlessness.


God i love the power of music.

Smashing Pumpkins-Drown. Wonderful,relaxing song except for the face-melting solo in the middle.

Or something like Helios, Hammock or Eluvium.

Yanni - one man's dream

Anything by John Mayer or Jeff Buckley.

Merzbow.

Oh, come on! You can name GWAR songs!

It's "[&@%!] an Animal", isn't it? That brings a release... in my pants.

-edit- WOW! Talk about a necro! gg, hughmc.

I generally listen to Downtempo when I want to chill, but there are lots of different songs from other genres I like to listen too when I relax.
To name a few:

Soon it will be cold enough cold enough to build fires - Emancipator
Beats Antique - Nasvalo
A walk - Tycho
