I found a bunch of my mom's old CDs that she used to play a lot when I was a kid (Portishead, some Kate Bush, ect.) . Was surprised to find that the music I remember most from childhood are depressing or make me feel sad because of nostalgia. I remember feeling sad a lot as a kid even though I had a good childhood.
Makes me wonder if my mom was having a hard time when I was a kid or if she just likes sadder music.
Maybe that's why I like really sad music that doesn't help me feel any less depressed.
