I'm so confused it is everything I hate about music but I liked it. I kinda feel like I watched some weird porn and it turned me on.

It is like a crossover between Heavy Metal and Alvin & the Chipmunks. Weird stuff, but kind of addictive.

Harmonie

Bonnie Boy by Shirley Collins

I've really come to love British Folk. That wonderful acoustic instrumentation, natural singing, yet somehow it all comes off as feeling quite hypnotic.

Shirley Collins' voice is certainly hypnotic.  Beautiful.

Icarus

If you have young children who would be calmed by soft piano along with cartoon characters on the screen then here is .........https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OwHc05fu-YY.

It might work for adults too, with or without cartoons.

Music has power to soothe the savage beast......and maybe hyped up kids.

"Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God?"
Epicurus [341-270 B.C.E.]

"And do you think that unto such as you,
A maggot-minded, starved, fanatic crew,
God gave the Secret, and denied it me?-
Well, well, what matters it! believe that too."

I'm listening to many different genres: heavy metal, (italo) pop, rock.

To honour our latest Swiss member (Brave Patato), I've been listening to one of the best albums of one of the Swiss bands of all times.
It is Yello's 1985 album Stella. One of my favourite songs on it is Desire

That bloody Toreador song from Carmen.  Never mind, it'll be over in a moment and then they might play something better.

Gimme Three Steps, Lynyrd Skynyrd

House of The Rising Sun, The Animals

Lee

Stand By Me, Otis Redding

This song makes me cry, time for bed, goodnight.

Shostakovich's 15th symphony, live at the Philharmonic after my group opened for them....Wow.
