So difficult ... it depends why I'm listening.
To inspire me to get off FunTrivia and work on my History ID's: Achtung Baby by U2
Music to wait to - in a train, at work, getting ready for a date: Factory Showroom by They Might Be Giants.
Music to lose myself in: Book of Secrets by Loreena McKennitt.
Music to work to: The Joshua Tree by U2
And finally, music to feel like I know my place in the world: Princesses Nubiennes, de Les Nubians. (Heather, help! when the name of the group starts with Les, and you put a de before it - do you use the contraction and get Des Nubians? Or not?)
