Pink Floyd - Brain Damage. Specifically "there's someone in my head, but it's not me". I wish they'd shut up. Other me can be a real pita.

Still have original vinyl... it's it wonder it's not transparent from frequent play over a half century. Roger Waters made some great tributes to Syd Barrett. Their on stage presence was mesmerizing.

That was my second choice, just cause it speaks to me on both a political and a musical level. It's a bop

What a voice! Her soprano is ethereal, bit reminiscent of Cocteau Twins, maybe a bit of Kate Bush. Thank you for the introduction to her music.

The instrumental at minute 5:02:09 of Eric Clapton’s “Layla”. That’s not even my name, but that segment has been the consistent soundtrack in my life. It started on my very last day of driver’s ed. I was a terrible driver and my instructor was super intimidating. I had to drive a certain number of hours to pass the class, so the last day he just had me drive for three hours straight so he’d be done with me. I was so nervous, wound really tight and there was a thunderstorm! Literally my last 10 minutes, the clouds part, the sun comes out, everything around me was super green and gleaming with wetness from the rain. And THIS part of the song is on the radio. The next bad day I had… THIS song. Every time I’ve accomplished a goal I’ve been struggling with, I heard THAT song. So now, if I’m having a rough day, I play Layla and I know my day will get better.

The Change by Garth Brooks
And I hear them saying,
"You'll never change things
And no matter what you do
It's still the same thing"
But it's not the world that I am changing
I do this so, this world will know
That it will not change me

Monsters calling my name
Let me stay where the wind will whisper to me
Where the raindrops as they're falling tell a story"

With this rampant chaos, your reality
I know well what lies beyond my sleeping refuge
The nightmare I build my own world to escape"

'Cool change' by Little River Band......
If there's one thing In my life that's missing
It's the time that I spend alone
Sailing on the cool and bright clear water
Lots of those friendly people
They're showing me ways to go
And I never want to lose their inspiration
Time for a cool change
I know that it's time for a cool change
And now that my life is so prearranged
I know that it's time for a cool change
Well, I was born in the sign of water
And it's there that I feel my best
The albatross and the whales
They are my brothers
It's kind of a special feeling
When you're out on the sea alone
Staring at the full moon like a lover.
This is SO true for me.....
