For me, it's mostly silence that works best. If I have a playlist on, I tend to tune it out.
Why? I ran a Starbucks Coffee House for some years and for Corporate Identity-reasons we had to play seasonal CDs all the time. Imagine having to listen to one single CD all day long (and during night shifts), for weeks and weeks. Unbearable. Brain shuts down eventually. Christmas songs are ruined for me forever!
But don't get me wrong, please! I love music. There's nothing better to boost my mood than songs from the 80s! Real bands, real guitars, real voices, catching melodies - Roooock!
