An office with "library rules"

I had this same problem for years, and it made me sad because I never listened to music.

Then I realized that it wasn't the case for music I know really well. Even jazz or complicated folk (Chris thile) is great if I listen to an album over and over. I get in the zone. Try an album where you know almost every musical element and lyric. Put the album on repeat and see if it works.

+1. I suggest 80s pop (Genesis, Michael Jackson) - extremely effective imo.

I worked a lot of long hours last week to 977's '80s channel.

I don't always listen to '80s pop, but when I do, it's when I am doing the long late night hours. A habit that goes back to college.

"Land of Confusion" coming on the stream was a highlight of one of the nights. The more tired I got, the more the music was working for me,
