It has been said that music can soothe your soul and I certainly believe that is true. Songs of beauty, truth, sadness, happiness, love, sorrow, all can either help you get through a situation or even make you feel worse. A song with words that seep into your mind, causing a reaction of happiness or joy, reflection of a fond memory, is worth listening to, because it stirs you, makes you think.
Instrumentals rarely affect me the same way. Of course there are some favorite classical pieces that cause poignancy, but I prefer a melody with lyrics, and listening to a story.

Music always moves me especially “ One more night” Phill Collins! I remember when I was between husbands stood on a ladder trying to hang wallpaper, as soon as this came on the radio I began sobbing 😭Happy memories 🙄❤️😬

You’re right. I love songs with either catchy happy tunes or good thought provoking lyrics. If I find both together then that’s a winner.
