Great comic!

Music is a wonderful antidote to depression, but each person has to find the music that works for them. Lucy might have her own music that works for her.

For me, the music that works varies greatly according to the source of the depression. I have a big repertoire of music for various sources, almost all oldies from the Sixties and Seventies: Shambala, Shango, Playground in My Mind, Uncle Albert/Admiral Halsey (refrain: "Hands across the water..."), Black and White ("...a child is black, a child is white, together they learn to see the light...") and American Pie are the ones I reach for most often.

They are definitely NOT interchangeable. What works for one source of depression is useless for another.

I'm new here, by the way. My handle is "pnyikos".

True @pnyikos-Welcome to the FORUM! Glad you are sharing your thoughts and repertoire. Also in General Chat is a topic called What are you listening to now? https://forums.malwarebytes.com/topic/83198-what-are-you-listening-to/page/107/#comment-1560372. Started by @goldhound in 2011, its been popular and continued to the present day.  People post there as well but there are requirements-be sure to read the "how to." It's good to have a wide range.

I'm partial to these, cause when you know the lyrics, singing along adds to the fun.

Regarding the comic, Lucy is clueless and misses the nuance, but still cute anyway.

FUN FACT: Today is International Piano Day. Look it up, but if MalwareBytes issues a warning, pay attention.

What led you to the forum?
