Quote by Glen Hansard
And for some reason, when I'm sad, I do listen to Leonard Cohen, I do listen to Joni Mitchell. I do find myself going to the music that's actually reflecting my mood, as opposed to sticking on Motown, which might actually bring my mood up.
Summary
This quote highlights the peculiar tendency to gravitate towards music that aligns with one's emotional state during times of sadness. Rather than choosing uplifting music to improve their mood, the individual finds solace in the introspection and introspective nature of Leonard Cohen and Joni Mitchell's music. Their preference for music that mirrors their emotions suggests a desire for catharsis and connection through art, seeking resonance in the melodies and lyrics that seem to understand and empathize with their sadness.
