Audio: What song do you listen to when you are sad?
Submitted by Nat.

I am not the sort of person who listens to sad music when I'm sad. I listen to plenty of sad music when I'm just going about my day because it doesn't tend to rub off on me. But when I'm really down I find that music can lift my mood more quickly than anything else a person can do in a public place...

This song is so absurdly happy and cute that if it were in English, I think it would make me slightly ill. However, I have not yet developed a sense of cynicism about lyrics of love in Spanish, so I frequently listen to this in the car and sing along like the crazy lady that I am.

Mana is a Mexican pop band whose lead singer has frequently been compared to Sting.

I want to do vox hunts. I'm not sure i can do this one, though, because my musical choice depends so much on specifics. Sometimes i want happy music to cheer myself up, more often i want something to refelct my mood - i think its cathartic.
If i go to 'post your answer' in the vox hunt box, does that just post my answer to my own blog? mmm.... i should go find the vox faq, huh?

If you click on "post your answer" it opens a Compose window in your own blog with the blockquote setting and the question, and the cursor waiting for your reply. :)
