Does anyone else have some songs which make you feel so good you feel on a natural high? And at the same time you can passionately hate some songs too? I love individual stuff that no ones ever heard of like electrocute, julie ruin and the pipettes. I hate so much the 'pop' that people think is indie such as razorlite and the kooks. Anyone agree? Whats your view?

i feel very passionately about music, and i have quite a few songs that make me feel good when i listen to them. (placebo, 80's goth, Juliette & the licks, plus loads of others - mainly rock & goth) i think it's all down to personal taste though, so what makes me feel good, would probably send some other people running in the opposite direction ! the music that annoys me is anything that's been over-processed or mass produced... like a lot of the so-called 'pop' songs that seem to dominate the charts... cheap & tacky, and totally devoid of tallent. i'm also not a big fan of R n B or rap music - especially Eminem... i hate his whiney voice bleating on about violence, who he hates, etc, etc. i would rather listen to my 4 year old son's Bob the Builder cd than listen to Eminem !!!

Me too. I have a collection of stuff for a natural high - it includes the Benny Goodman Carnegie Hall version of Sing Sing Sing, the Polka and Fugue from Schwanda the Bagpiper, Bad Penny Blue by Humphrey Lyttleton ... they're all guaranteed mood-lifters. Also I've some military band music played by German/Austrian village bands - wonderful to drive to if I'm not disturbing anyone by having the stereo on too loud.
I run a mile from anything that has a high screaming female voice and/or a very loud electronic beat - I once spent some time in a place where you couldn't escape from 'And I Will Always Love You,' and that saxophone thing with Baker Street in its title, and it drove me crazy. Also I can't stand being in places where they have two competing kinds of 'music' going on - as many shopping malls do - and also when someone has a radio on that's just but only just audible; I have very acute hearing and I find that it draws my concentration away.
Hope that gives you some ideas ...

I can't stand jazz, it's got no form to it. It's bad enough when it's instrumental but when you have singers adding their interpretation, it makes it worse.
I love Classical music, I switch it on, stand for a moment and I can feel my entire body and soul relax at that moment. Adiemus by Karl Jenkins can send me soaring into the heights, it's wonderful.
If you want something stirring .... relaxing .... motivating .... everything really, you can't do better than Beethoven.
I like some of most types of music (except jazz). Brass band music sends me soaring because it takes me back to the years I've spent in bands and I alwways listen out for the bass line - I play the E flat bass.
80's pop sends me soaring (I had Nik Kershaw on repeat for four hours yesterday) because that was my era.
I like rock, Queen, Dire Straits, Status Quo etc. Great to blast your brain to. I liked the Darkness but I think they've split. There's also been a group on the radio recently who sound a bit like the Darkness but I'm reliably informed are quite different. I don't keep up with the charts these days.

Let me give away my age...
Paul McCartney and Wings had a song titled "Silly Love Songs". That song was played unmercifully over and over again when I was a kid over the speaker system at the local swimming pool in the summer. I used to hate the song because it was over-played, now I absolutely love it, and love the memories it brings back

I love it when that happens my song is fidelity by regina spektor but the kooks are also a good band.

Natural Highs are common, but easily destroyed once your start drinking alcohol.
A natural state of mind will love all music.
