Kudos to iTunes shuffle mode for starting a morning's worth of music with two songs that ease a person into the new day. Bob Thompson's "Coming Home To You" flowed into Ken Bonfield's "Mystic Morning," making me savor a tasteful piano instrumental followed by an equally graceful guitar selection.
At a different time of a day or when I'm in a more aggressive mood, I might welcome "Shimmer" by Fuel or Free's "Wishing Well." Not when it's this early in the day, however...
