Toots - Spiritual Healing
Just to absolutely annoy people, I’d probably go with a song I find very annoying and long. Probably something like Cannon in D, one I guarantee everybody has heard, even if they don’t know the name.
Joke’s on you, I fucking love Canon in D.
Jokes back on you, you said they’d feel the same emotions as the person who chose. So you would feel a song you previously loved and adored would be long and annoying. Possibly altering your feelings for the song permanently!
“Suicide Is Painless”
For me it’d be Better Than That by Sub-Radio.

Those that have spent a few years on Reddit might remember them doing live shows back when they were less known. As a band, they’re basically just pure pop-punk joy, and I think people could use a little joy lately.
Ren : Hi Ren
I hope you are well friend!
Not at all. Never really have been though and it’s been 43 years so at least I’m used to it.
Thank you. Surprisingly unvulgar and not at all cynical
43 rotations here as well. I think it’s really hard to see any joy when we have grown up in a world that only seems to constantly take our happiness away at every turn.
I find solace in knowing this is all temporary and thankfully, the world will go on without us. Whether that’s us as individuals or are species as a whole.
Until either of those inevitable points though, know that to some small degree you are not alone and there’s at least one random stranger on the internet who is thinking about you in a caring way today.
Not the person you replied to, but that’s pretty sensible. Thanks for the perspective
Cheers friend. Good luck out there.
You know the song and so do I
It was the song that I was…thinking of!
I knew and I clicked anyway. God dammit.
Same. Made my husband start dancing. 🤣
I’m noticing a distinct lack of people saying Rick Astly - Never Gonna Give You Up
The emotion: mild amusement
You are a monster.
Killing in the name of
This was my pick too. Might start a revolution.
Wake Up - RATM
People need to get really fucking angry and start causing serious trouble for those that are burning our home and hurting our friends.
Smooth Sailing - Queens of the Stone Age
This song has such an incredible vibe. It was played a lot on tour after shows. In the truck, the hotel, the bar. Wherever.
Reminds me of the good days of making music and hanging out with some of my favorite people. I’d like the whole world to feel free, loved and valid all at once. Might just make a difference.
Happy Birthday, if I’ve gotta sit there quietly and feel awkward, so do all of you
Welcome my son,
welcome, to the machine.
Where have you been?
It’s alright, we know where you’ve been.
Welcome to the Machine, Pink Floyd
This is already frequently in my head.
I was birthed to that album.
Ænima by TOOL
I wanna see it all flushed away.
Learn to swim
See you down in Arizona Bay!
Learn to swim
I sure could use a vacation
Parabol/Parabola by Tool. That song can bring me to tears.
