You've lit the incense and the candles, maybe draped some cloth over the lampshade. What's playing on the stereo?
I say you can't go wrong with Enigma.

"It is not the literal past that rules us, save, possibly, in a biological sense. It is images of the past. Each new historical era mirrors itself in the picture and active mythology of its past or of a past borrowed from other cultures. It tests its sense of identity, of regress or new achievement against that past.”

It's funny, I can play something like Zeppelin at full boom and lay on a couch and go straight to sleep. When I wake up my ears feel goofy, though... But anyway, I guess "Sheep" by Pink Floyd might put me away or maybe the whole "Wish You Were Here" album. Oh, and ECHOES.

I think I was a little too obscure. Uh... I wasn't talking about sleeping... at least, not in the solo sense of the word.

Well, the closest I get to any mood when listening to music is a sleepy one. 
Otherwise, I just plain listen to it. Helps me think about whatever I'm going to write in the near future. And yes, Led Zeppelin II is where it's at, heh heh... 
*nudge nudge*

Sarah McLachlin: the album "Solace" with "Drawn to the Rhythm", "Into the Fire", "Back Door Man", etc. You have to skip "Black" though it is a real mood killer.
For the slow tender times: "Adagio" from the Gayne Ballet Suite (you'll remember it as the background music in 2001 when Dave is jogging around the ship), and "Ase's Death" from Peer Gynt - which then leads to "In the Hall of the Mountian King" - only those who are strong "like bull" are worthy to make love to THAT.

Depends on the night and the mood. As you know there are many different moods within "The Mood", different flavours, many shades and colors. Do we want a little Nine in Nails to spice things up or is it a Tangerine Dream sort of night. Thinking back, I have very fond memories of Fleetwood Mac's Tango in the Night (what an appropriate title!). Listen to Big Love and let me know.
War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things. The decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks that nothing is worth war is much worse. The person who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself.
