Just lately I've been listening a lot to Radiohead, the live stuff on YouTube mainly, particularly in brief moments of downtime at work. It's all a bit contradictory: I think it would be fair to characterise the band as pretty intense on the somewhat depressive side. But after listening I always feel unaccountably cheerful.
(Just to give a specific example, I listened to a wonderfully frantic 2 + 2 = 5 live from the Reading Festival a couple of times today, at a suitably happy volume, and it went a long way towards healing the pains of an unconscionably busy day.)
