Songs that 'take you away' from the stress & strife of life

[OldEngineer]

Truthfully, I'm not into music as most, but this song 'takes me far away".
Orinoco Flow, Enya

What's your jam?

This gives me a lift. ​

Dean Martin & Helen O'Connell - How D'Ya Like Your Eggs In The Morning?​

When I was younger this story song seemed quite happy, showing people finding something to enjoy that contrasted with their less than perfect lives. With time it became more and more mournful for me, though it still has its beauty.

Maybe now I'm just the guy who once "wore a younger man's clothes."

[Georgiagranny]

Invitation to the Dance by Von Weber.

And anything by Telemann, Vivaldi, Salieri, Couperin, Boccherini, Purcell, Saint-Saens, Mozart, and the list goes on and on and on

 

[Pepper]

These two songs, in combination, fill me with hope & expectation

this doesn't take me away from things... rather it sums up my life... I play it to remind me that I have to get my life back
