When I was much younger, I really followed her and listened to her non stop.
Fascinating story, and I must admit music is an indicator and a therapy for me. When I'm hypomanic, more upbeat rock/metal is indicative of my mood, yet I can listen to say, Epica or Nightwish which is symphonic metal to help with catharsis or simply grounding me. I also paint both when I'm elevated and as a therapy and it always calms me either way.
Thankyou for sharing
