I feel uncomfortable nowadays when I listen to Bob Marley, for obvious reasons. It just makes me uncomfortable to hear him sing about "Jah" because I know that he's using that name in a way foreign to Christianity. That, and the diatribe in "Get Up, Stand Up" always floats in my mind.

With that caveat, I don't know of any music in the world that can more easily place me in a relaxed, joyful, pleasant mood. My favorite "love song", arguably, is "Is This Love?". Also, "Stir It Up", "One Love", "Three Little Birds", etc, are all wonderful songs.
