Who else love completely spacing out with a good album or song?

I love doing it :P

One of my favourite bands, Karnivool, does an excellent job at evoking imagery and emotion that I just get lost in every time.

This is a live set from a few years back after they released their second album: Sound awake

some of the best tracks are, Deadman, Themata, New day and Umbra.... And then there's Change(1/2) which is on a whole other level.

It's odd, but watching that gig pretty much changed my life :D Inspired a whole new direction with my guitar playing and singing.

So what gets you lost?

I usually listen to Three Days Grace. I love the One-X album. U know, I live with Three Days Grace's musics. my soul is bounded to those musics.

And all the times when I want to talk to others and I don't want to talk my self, I share them a music to listen. then Epica is a nice choice for those situations. for example when some one tried to make fun of me about my problem (being a TS) I share him "Crying for the moon" and every thing solved. ;)

I'm of a different era, but one of the best bands I knew of to get lost in their music was The Moody Blues. They were, and are, just awesome.

My favorite I get lost in is music from the likes of Enigma, Synthetic Substance, Y Traxx, Sirius & Nyla and the likes. At work, I listen to (very quietly at my desk) The Chillout Lounge internet radio station. If I am in the mood, sometimes Vocal Trance.

Im more of a metal head, fave band iron Maiden, through their music and lyrics i fealt i dunno safe in a very bad time of my life. kept me from going over the edge, and since then i listened to metal music most. however

I love getting lost in soundtracks, example "The Last Samurai" which compose dby Hans Zimmer, and Mass Effect 2 Soundtrack by Jack wall and Sam Hulick one is based on orientle sound and is slow and epic, though it delves in the thunderous crescendos towards the climax of the album, and the other is sci=fi done right, they mix i guess would be trance like, music with heavy bass and catchy melodies, with straight up heroic patriotic fanfares that remind you everything is okay and gives somthing to cheer for. and not to mention the peices of ME2' soundtrack where you delve deep into the unknown a track called Legion, in the game your inside a old space ship that is actually a synthetic life form with organic parts too. anyway the music is unknown, scary, and tense and once it has you on the edge of yourseat it slowly pours into your head with tunes that tickle your spine and raises your heart beat, then goes all on what i can only describe as the most epic amazing, peice of sci-fi horror ever portrayed in any soundtrack ive ever heard.

but yeah video game soundtracks or Movie soundtracks

Try the track "The Falls" by Ennio Morricone from the film, The MIssion.

I can listen to Enya for hours. On the other hand, I listen to Alice Cooper, Katy Perry, Queen, Pink, Jethro Tull, Owl City, Black Sabbath and a whole range of others that you wouldn't think would go together.

LOL - you are not kidding - I would have never linked that group of performers together - some I have never even heard of - so, wow - you sure do have quite a well-rounded range of musical tastes!

Fields of The Nephilim for me...esp their 'Elizium' album....can listen to it on a loop for hours on end. It came out in 1991, but is still as fresh as it was the day it came out....it was the first cd I uploaded to my iPod.

For me it's any of the Cetic female perfomers or bands likeLoreena Mckinnett, the Celtic Women or the band Clannad, there is something wonderfully conforting to me to here these hauntingly female voices backed by the sound of harps and pipes.

Just two words: Power. Metal. In general, anything from Iron Maiden to Sabaton, from Helloween to Stratovarius, or from Sonata Arctica to Kerion, anything will easily catch me.

But when it comes down to getting deeply immersed in the music from dawn to dusk then Symphonic metal kicks in. Bands like Rhapsody of Fire or Fairyland have some ability to get me lost into dreamlike majestic landscapes so wonderful that can only exist within the realms of imagination.

Here is a little example, hoping you get an idea:

The leaves are dancing under the wind

The songs of birds are filling my head

A taste of heaven, a magic play

The return of better days

(from Rebirth - Of Wars in Osyrhia (2003) by Fairyland)

Quite fitting for the moment, since spring has just begun ^^

Hugs,

Ethain

      Good morning everyone,   @KymmieLI hope you're misreading your bosses communications. As you say keep plugging a long. Don't give them signs that you're slow quitting, just to collect unemployment.   I have a few things to do business wise, and will be driving to the St. Louis, MO area for two family gatherings.   Have a great day,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      Good morning everyone, TGIFF   It seems like I am the one keeping or shop from being the best. According to the boss. I don't know if my days are numbered or not. But anymore I am waiting for the axe to fall. Time will tell.   I keep plugging a long.   Kymmie

      What is relaxation to you? Nature? Movie? Reading? Cuddling with a pet? Music?

      Having just a normal emotional day.

      AMUSEMENT The feeling when you encounter something silly, ironic, witty, or absurd, which makes you laugh. You have the urge to be playful and share the joke with others. Similar words: Mirth Amusement is the emotional reaction to humor. This can be something that is intended to be humorous, like when someone tells a good joke or when a friend dresses up in a ridiculous costume. But it can also be something that you find funny that was not intended to be humorous, like when you read a sign with a spelling error that turns it into an ironic pun. For millennia, philosophers and scholars have been attempting to explain what exactly it is that makes something funny. This has led to several different theories. Nowadays, the most widely accepted one is the Incongruity Theory, which states that something is amusing if it violates our standards of how things are supposed to be. For example, Charlie Chaplin-style slapstick is funny because it violates our norms of competence and proper conduct, while Monty Python-style absurdity is funny because it violates reason and logic. However, not every standard or norm violation is necessarily funny. Violations can also evoke confusion, indignation, or shock. An important condition for amusement is that there is a certain psychological distance to the violation. One of the ways to achieve this is captured by the statement ‘comedy is tragedy plus time’. A dreadful mistake today may become a funny story a year from now. But it can also be distant in other ways, for instance, because it happened to someone you do not know, or because it happens in fiction instead of in real life. Amusement also needs a safe and relaxed environment: people who are relaxed and among friends are much more likely to feel amused by something. A violation and sufficient psychological distance are the basic ingredients for amusement, but what any one person find funny will depend on their taste and sense of humor. There are dozens of ‘humor genres’, such as observational comedy, deadpan, toilet humor, and black comedy. Amusement is contagious: in groups, people are more prone to be amused and express their amusement more overtly. People are more likely to share amusement when they are with friends or like-minded people. For these reasons, amusement is often considered a social emotion. It encourages people to engage in social interactions and it promotes social bonding. Many people consider amusement to be good for the body and the soul. By the end of the 20th century, humor and laughter were considered important for mental and physical health, even by psychoneuroimmunology researchers who suggested that emotions influenced immunity. This precipitated the ‘humor and health movement’ among health care providers who believed that humor and laughter help speed recovery, including in patients suffering from cancer1). However, the evidence for health benefits of humor and laughter is less conclusive than commonly believed2. Amusement is a frequent target of regulation: we down-regulate it by shifting our attention to avoid inappropriate laughter, or up-regulate it by focusing on a humorous aspect of a negative situation. Interestingly, amusement that is purposefully up-regulated has been found to have the same beneficial physical and psychological effects as the naturally experienced emotion. Amusement has a few clear expressions that emerge depending on the intensity of the emotion. When people are mildly amused, they tend to smile or chuckle. When amusement intensifies, people laugh out loud and tilt or bob their head. The most extreme bouts of amusement may be accompanied by uncontrollable laughter, tears, and rolling on the floor. Most cultures welcome and endorse amusement. Many people even consider a ‘good sense of humor’ as one of the most desirable characteristics in a partner. At the same time, most cultures have (implicit) rules about what is the right time and place for amusement. For example, displays of amusement may be deemed inappropriate in situations that demand seriousness or solemness, such as at work or during religious rituals.

      Love it! This is great news. We need more of this to combat the excessive hate-filled rhetoric and misinformation. 👍

      The experience was the same for me @April Marie. I slept much deeper and I woke up each morning feeling so much more restful sleeping with forms solidly in place. For me, wearing breast forms at night started when before I was a teenager. I had no access up to modern breast forms and certainly no way to buy mastectomy bras back then. I wore a basic bra my mom had put in a donation box and two pairs of soft cotton socks. I have some crazy memories of things I did in my youth to combat my GD but regardless, these makeshift concoctions helped me work through it all.   All My Best, Susan R🌷
