Road trip: "Mrs Potter's Lullabye" by Counting Crows. It rolls right along at the speed limit.

Angsty interludes: "Against The Wind" by Bob Seger. Corny, but so singable, it always lifts me out of my funk.

Reflective moments: "Symphony No. 6 'Pastorale'" by Beethoven. For me, no other music so ably communicates the simple joy of existence.

Feeling manic? "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun" by Cyndi Lauper. Rapid-fire instrumentation barely keeps up with her soaring vocals.

Fun topic!
