music + books = ♥

Finals period has revealed to me something about myself of which I was not aware: I work best while listening to music heavy on the pianos and the drums. Regina Spektor, Stars, and Eskimo Joe have been my standbys the past few days, and I think The Fray would probably be good too. I think it's because the drums drive me along while the piano is pretty and lilting and stimulating without being distracting. It's music that blends with my body and mind, I guess. This also tends to be music which I can sing along to without thinking, which is always good.

Any other suggestions? I've got a paper due Monday and an exam each on Monday and Tuesday, so I'll need all the help I can get! What music helps you?
