Music that has saved your life

Plaid has been a bit like that for me.

It kinda says 'I know everything is a bit rubbish, but it's
okay' to me. Kinda cos it is beautiful and ethereal and all
encompasing, but substantial and real and almost tangible,
too.

Plaid is really good. Listening to Double Figure now.

So what music has saved your life?

one time some shady dudes were approaching me in a dark
alley. luckily i had my ghetto blaster on me and my autechre
mix tape. i hit play when i saw them coming and i think the
fucked up beats scared them away. next day i learned that in
almost that exact same place a person was mugged and killed
later that night

shit and drugs in uni days

hey man, just think of all the people listening to shit
music.

At least you are trying to create something truly and
genuinely beautiful and different. And at least you
appreciate what it is complex and real and different in the
first place.

Chin up, fella!

venetian snares changed my life not ' saved' it. 'Saved my
life' sounds way to dramatic.

Yes!

That's the song I wanted to bring up in the Plaid thread as
my fave track by Plaid.

Speshially like it cos it reminds me of the American Beauty
OST. It is funny that they came out the same year, too...
:/

Beautiful, subtly powerful track. Kinda reagal, too.

Yeah, I might.

I have been meaning to. Do you like Sugarcubes? Or maybe
Sugar Cubes? It is Bjork with others in a band. It might be
a bit like kate Bush, maybe. You'll prolly recognise
this song by them. It is pretty much a celebration
of life IMO and I like it a lot. It evokes a lot of
emoticons in me when I listen. :)

Grumpy bastard.

;)

Anyway, you just have to tell us which song saved your life,
not the circumstances under which the life saving occurred.
You don't have to relay a story, although it would be nice.

almost made me cry.
