I can't sleep for thinking

Send me the music you listen to when you're too angry to sleep. I was thinking of making a playlist, but I could always use more.

If you want something to complement the anger:
Einsturzende Neubauten - "Armenia"
Bright Sheng - "H'un - Lacerations"
Beethoven - "Grosse fuge"
George Crumb - "Black Angels"

If you want something to help you get to sleep:
Beethoven - 9th Symphony, third movement
Anything by Hildegard von Bingen
Pauline Oliveros - "Deep Listening"

I was about to say the same thing about Beethoven's 9th m3.
And Vanessa Mae's "I'm A-Doun for Lack of Johnnie (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lh9j0-Ey3kw)"
And Loreena McKinnett's "Lullaby (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rWqQ9uwqQxk)". All very purging of that choleric humour.

But to keep the blood on the boil, I tend towards protest rock: Midnight Oil's "The Dead Heart (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CSybR_k_Ouo)", Rachid Taha's "Barra, Barra (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q-nF8ACz4k0)", or U2's "Mothers of the Disappeared (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1ZBlT9ycecQ)".

Pauline Oliveros is so wonderful -- one of my heroes.

To all the Beethoven I would add the slow movement of the Third Razumovsky.

And the Adagio movement of Schubert's String Quintet, D. 956.
