Day 27: A song that calms you down

I suppose this might not be everyone's choice of a 'calming' band, but I feel like that is one of many colours in their palette.
There is a great deal of wisdom in this song, and some good counsel that my overactive mind often struggles to remember.

"Overthinking, overanalysing, separates the body from the mind
Withering my intuition, leaving opportunities behind...
Feed my will to feel this moment
Urging me to cross the line
Reaching out to embrace the random
Reaching out to embrace whatever may come"

Tool - Lateralus

 
He wrote some kick ass songs!!

They aren't my cuppa, but I have known a remarkably large number of people who find Tool, even at their loudest, calming. I love that.
 
Day 27: A song that calms you down
This is from Robert Plant's second solo album, The Principle of Moments. It is a fantastic album, probably his best post-Zeppelin work until he started recording with Alison Krauss. This is a wistful, hopeful song, and it rings for me and calms me.

Dance by me close, tell 'em all to go
One's for the money, but I'm through with the show
Move with me gently, oh so slow
Hold me and maybe I'll never let go
Never let go...

"Thru' with the Two-Step," Robert Plant


Stay till the sun comes, and don't go away
Don't go away...
