I recall the late 1970's when I did housework to the Doobie Brothers' latest album, “Minute by Minute.” It would help keep me energized and cheerful while I did the laundry, dusted and straightened (not my favorite things in the world to do). Remembering that, I recently bought the CD and I find that it still works to energize me. Handel's Messiah is also a very energizing piece, or the last movement to Beethoven's 9th Symphony, the famous
Ode to Joy.
