We all have those moments where we are just at a certain place, and the music just fits, like a soundtrack, see... whether it's a road trip or a night in with the missus or a drunken rampage

as much information as you want...

so, like a wallowing in self pity playlist - do you find it is comforting, or kicks your ass and gets you going again (i don't know any of the songs, you see)

Wouldn't say wallowing in self-pity - more like a reminiscent kinda thing. Like looking back on things (mainly love-based things).

It's mainly comforting. Listening to songs like these has done more comforting than inspiration :).
