I hope to start participating again soon. In the meantime, thanks to everyone for their effortsClap!
  Hope you begin to feel better soon and that music will once again become a thing you find more enjoyable.  It's good to take a break from anything once in a while.

Music is a method to maintain one's mental mean.

While I often find music to be very therapeutic, and it can help me with emotional stability and to regulate one's moods, there are times that I need a break from it and so instead watch youtube videos of ridiculous so-called sovereign citizens and first amendment auditors getting arrested. It can cheer me up anyway.

Recently I wasn't enjoying music much, or forum life, and took a break from it. Good to have a wide variety of interests and activities, I find, and to try new things.

Carlos Paredes, The Marvellettes, HP Lovecraft, and The Electric Prunes are on rank 5-8 (Lovecraft did quite a bit better at second listening than at first). I still have to make my mind up about which three of the first four will make it to the podium. Still in the race: Fairport Convention, Gino Paoli, Love, and Tom Dissevelt.

Fotheringay is a beautiful song that I like to listen to, however it doesn't feel quite as special as the other three, so I will rank it fourth.
The top 3 are, in no particular order:
Tom Dissevelt - extremely fresh and original. I knew such things were going on in Germany and the UK, didn't know about the Netherlands but need to explore that.
Gino Paoli - What an iconic moving song!
Love - This radiates so much fun and joy they must have had when recording this!
