    Haha definitely yeah, that's what I thought when I searched for Shakira's Whenever Wherever song, and that's why I posted the lyrics video, not the official one...

    That Beastie Boys song is a nice one to start the day, love it ! Since I'm french I heared about Sexion d'Assaut on TV but never heared their songs, I'll give it a try.

    EDIT : added some of your songs to the original post ! I'll do this everytime someone posts a new song as well

    the hardrock/metal section is my preferred section (deep inside me there is a little rocker i guess).

    like the video of the jurassic5 song - very good.

    rammstein is my music for running. must visit a rammstein-concert they have an insane stage show.

    boys found this comment under the disturbed song (down with the sickness):

    "This song makes me want to eat land mines, slap a lion with my dick, and play Russian Roulette with all 6 bullets."

    great comment - i agree totally. :D

    I'm currently listening to Cat Stevens - "Tea for The Tillerman" on vinyl, and honestly believe this is one of the best, most heart-warming and mellow "feel good" albums of all time.

    I generally find that listening to music is the best thing I can do to forget PMO. I turn on a bit of music and I'm immediately drawn in to something far more important and pleasureable than PMO. This is probably because music releases dopamine too, so you're getting your fix, just from a far more appropriate and meaningful medium.

    For me, I find laidback underground psychedelia and kosmische musik from the late 60s and early 70s is particularly effective. My mind just floats away.

    Hey Erboinq, hope you'll find songs you like here ! Check the "songs to relax" part, there's probably something you'll like. I'm fond of Tycho, Boards Of Canada and all this ambient stuff when in comes to relaxing. This and classic music !

    I also second that 100 %. BTW, when interviewed David Draiman (Disturbed's vocalist) always says the purpose of their music is to make people feel strong and help to accomplish the listener's objective. That's what I really like about them. And in my opinion you can hear this in every song, too bad they're on a hiatus right now. In the mean time I recommend to check out two side projects by some Disturbed members:

    David Draiman's side project Device, song: Vilify

    Dan Donegan's and Mike Wengren's side project Fight or Flight, song: First of the Last

    EDIT: I changed the link for the Device song from Youtube to Soundcloud, as the video is slightly triggering. Tip for anybody who wants to link to a video on Youtube that could be a trigger: keep Soundcloud in mind ;-)
