Health Music

For a start I do not mean comfort music as in comfort food. I mean music that has a revitalizing effect that inspires non-self-deleterious mindsets and behavior, like if anything with a beat makes you resent being sober. For instance, music that reminds me of academia and productiveness is good for me, like when I'm listening to that plucky Mark Mothersbaugh inst. track from Rushmore when I'm driving. I imagine the street being lined with ivy and myself having the stamina to even walk a single fucking block, maybe wearing a vest and shit. I even make little twitches with my imaginary moustache when I feel like this.

You know those intensely AVERAGE looking chicks in the American Apparel ads? They make me realize that skinny party chicks that rock Lululemon gear will only lead to paranoia or boredom. Regular honeys are reliable and when you get sketchy you can nuzzle into their womblike heft and just complain and complain about whoever you want to kill. Word?

You go, you go, you go! Yaaaaaaaaay!

sorry, "like if"= like if youre the kind of person for whom....

ALright then, let me kick it off.

Dear Jessie by Madonna makes me yearn for a life rife with optimism, energy, and non-dangerous hallucinations, not inert bitterness and total reluctance to organize what can simply not amount to more than three or four towels and a hat on my bedroom floor.

If you bust a nut on someone's belly or have a nut busted on yours, and you rub bellies together just to be gratuitous bastards, or if youre going solo and bust a nut on your own belly and work it around, don't you love that tight feeling after it dries and you feel like you have really cut-up, sculpted abs until you wash it off? That fleeting feeling of fitness and body-consciousness comes to me (sorry) when I listen to Kaltes Klares Wasser by Chicks On Speed. I'm THINKING about a gym card and it's songs like this that might give me that extra push.

This might be more literal than what you had in mind, but Jason Traeger's album My Religion is Love, especially the lead single, "Health, Personal Growth, & Positive Living" always makes me feel good.

Many sad songs make me sad but then happy instead. (example: flaming lips)

Meat Loaf really motivates me to get things done. It makes me hold my hand slightly hidden near my stomach in a fist and nod slightly too.

Blackalicious and Bach's Brandenberg Concertos.

I realize my comments on the American Apparel girls were kind of random cos I forgot to say they're the flesh equivalent of Health Music, and in fact I refer to those kind of girls as "Mushroom Soup Girls," in tribute to their wholesome nature and revitalizing properties.
