1.1Educational entertainment

Entertainment should also educate, not only entertain for the sake of entertainment alone. Entertainment is a perfect chance to educate the people, the citizens, the laypeople, the masses.

2.1Background music for thinking?

Nope. Don't use these. Just search "music for thinking" on YouTube instead. We need some repetitive low-energy not-too-distracting conducive background music.

Smooth jazz and jazzy pop:

European Jazz Trio's cover of Sting's "Fragile"
"Citra", Ermy Kullit. The pianist's occasionally nonchalantly playing outside is interesting.
"Keraguan"
- Ermy Kullit
- Dian Pramana Putra & Deddy Dhukun
- This song borrows the chords from Michael Franks's "Antonio's Song"
Ermy Kulit, "Ke mana"
- another video

Voice and piano:

Joyous Music II - Please Stop Pushing, Right Now, from ホーホケキョとなりの山田くん (hōhokekyo tonari no Yamada-kun, "My neighbors the Yamadas") soundtrack, composed by 矢野顕子 (Yano Akiko). I love the how innocent this song sounds; it always cheers me up. Simple but effective.

- 花になれ (hana ni nare), 指田郁也 (Sashida Fumiya):
  - 5:42 full version.
  - 1:49 cut version.
  - I got this from watching Yuzuru Hanyu ice skating. This song has some interesting chords, such as the one at 3:07 in the full version, which I think is G6-F7-B7-E8-Ab8 (where C8 is the middle C). It's like playing E major on top of G7.

- rock pop
  - power ballad
    - Ylvis, "Stonehenge"
    - "Beauty and the beast", Celine Dion and Peabo Bryson
    - "Stonehenge", Ylvis. This is a comedy, but this is not an easy song at all. The lyric is comical, but the music is serious. At 2:55, observe how the arrangement interweaves the choir and the lead vocalist to accent the word "fuck". I love this kind of serious joke. I love applying inference rules to dubious premises in order to reach absurd conclusions. Ylvis on music, Beat Takeshi on films, and the "Yakuza" series on games. There is also Ylvis performing "Stonehenge" live in Melodifestivalen 2015.

  - 緋の砂 (aka no suna, "Scarlet sand"), T.M.Revolution: live; you may want to skip to 2:23; it seems that the album version has been removed from YouTube. The word "aka" is usually written 赤 to mean "red", but it can also be written 緋 to mean "scarlet" or "crimson", but 緋 can also be read "hi" or "ake", depending on the meaning.

- "Mountains", Hans Zimmer, from Interstellar. This piece has a very wide dynamic range; headphones do not do justice to this piece. I watched this on cinema, and the low-frequency sound was so loud that I can feel my chest and my butt cheeks resonating.

- "Gabriel's oboe", Ennio Morricone
- "Tiếng gió xôn xao", by Đàm Vĩnh Hưng, the old version and the new version. This is a Vietnamese song. I prefer the old version, but I can understand that he, as a musician, has to adapt to the times in order to survive. The opening of the old version sounds as if it were modulating to the dominant due to the sharpened submediant in the melody, but then the bass plays the natural submediant, refuting that hint. Such 'fake' modulation is also heard in Rin Ginsuke's "Wind of Agartha".

Classical music

Baroque, Romantic, Neo-Classical.
- Johann Sebastian Bach
  - Chaconne, from Partita No. 2 (BWV 1004). Those triple stops!
  - Aria, from Suite no. 3 in D major (BWV 1068), more popularly known as the Air on G (August Wilhelmj arrangement). The modulation from D major to E minor to A major is smooth and genius. That progression A/G - F#dim7 - Am/E - B/D# is great teamwork in counterpoint; that F#dim7 deceived me who thought that it was going to D/F#; this elegance just won't exist without the counterpoint.

2.7Anthems

State anthem of the Soviet Union
- Wikipedia
  - The national anthem of Russia in 2018 uses the same melody but different lyrics.
- YouTube
- As a musician, I think this is the anthem with the most inspiring melody, harmony, and orchestration. The suspense chords. The basses. The trumpets. The strings.
Hatikvah (national anthem of Israel)
- YouTube
- It has interesting harmony.
Scotland the brave (this is a Scottish anthem, but not the national anthem of Scotland)
- YouTube, bagpipes and drums
Indonesia Raya (national anthem of Indonesia)
La Marsellaise (national anthem of France)
Kimigayo (national anthem of Japan)
