Play a favorite album, preferable one with a chill vibe, and throw up this behind it.

It's the bee's knees.

Seconded. I also find it really good background noise for studying. Hell, it doesn't even have to be mellow music - RM works really well with *album name redacted; site limit reached*, too.

EDIT: Damn, looks like SH has a cap on the number of times you can mention certain albums here. Well, you can probably guess which one I mean.

Serious advice now: No-one likes indecision in their work, so find what you like that you're even remotely good at, and stick with it. Don't flit from one thing to another, because that just smacks of a large lack of determination and drive. And people don't like you for that, and won't remember you for it. I mean, I get that you have a plucky spirit and a willingness to try new things, but there's a limit, man.
I might knock it down to just Thursday and Friday.

I made a topic about this about the same time last year. Haven't used this in a while, though... *puts on an album and listens*

My all-time favorite song to mellow out to fits perfect with this.

Hopesfall - Paisley

It's just the most relaxing song ever.

It works really well with (though I shudder to say it) Metallica's softer songs - Fade to Black and The Unforgiven III come to mind. I actually haven't used rainymood in a rather long time; I should go back and check it out with some genres I hadn't before. Post-rock would be interesting, as would Bon Iver and Iron & Wine. Hmm. Yup, definitely have to go check that out.

I wonder what it says about the psychological aspect of rain and music that someone realized "Hey! You know what goes great with music I like? The sound of falling rain."

I bet it would work especially well with this song.

Nothing. People have been listening to music in the rain since music was even a thing. I've listened to most of the music on my PC many times while the rain is beating down my windows... it doesn't really require a mental leap.

I found a song that it doesn't really work with: cheerful overrules rain!

I'ma go try it with some Mogwai. Because that... that will work.

Randomly remembered this post after about a year last week, and suddenly remembered what a great combination this is. Such a good song with rain, and it was massively nostalgic listening to it again after what, 8 months? Wow... Time Flies (que Porcupine Tree). But in all seriousness, cheers for the recomendation.

I wasn't really big on the album when it came out, but seeing that song live with the video was riveting.
