What music would you include in your preps? I would like a variety, except for ghetto rap crap.

You can store any kind of music you like on an external hard drive. I have a TB external HDD that I use for nothing but music and videos. One good source for nearly ANYTHING you want, whether it's misic/videos, or professional research papers/textbooks, is <archive.org> They have MILLIONS of free downloads from "A-Z." They even have "prepper material." https://archive.org
 
As Oliver Twist said "More Please", only in my case, with lyrics please for us deaf guys.
 
I have all my music on iTunes, probably a good idea to put it on a usb drive...but my phone would be ok with the goal zero chargers I have. My music tastes range far and wide. 50s, 60s rock, some later....James Taylor, Carole king, the band, creedance clearwater revival, Phil oches, bob Dylan, Harry Chapin, pat benatar, old Rolling Stones, victor Jara, inti-illimani, Mercedes Sosa, angel parra, ..... so many, each for different moods...

Without music, ELO's Roll Over Beethoven is just another cover. Yeah, it has lyrics, but I really consider it as an instrumental, especially the long version. Turn up the volume, maybe you can feel the vibes. :)

But here are the lyrics:
Gonna write a little letter, gonna mail it to me local D.J
Its a jumping little record I want my jockey to play
Roll over Beethoven, gotta hear it again today

My temperature's rising, the juke box's blowing a fuse
My heart's beating a rhythm, singing out rhythm and blues
Roll over Beethoven, they're rocking in two by two

Well if you feel you like it, go get your lover and reel and rock it
Roll it over and move on up now, go for cover and reel and rock it
Roll it over, roll over Beethoven, tell Tchaikovsky the news

Early in the morning I'm a giving you the warning
Don't you step on my blue suede shoes
Hey diddle diddle, gonna play my fiddle
I ain't got nothing to lose
Roll over Beethoven, tell Tchaikovsky the news

She wiggles like a glow-worm, dances like a spinning top
She got a crazy partner, you should have seen her reel and rock
Long as she got a dime, the music will never stop

Well if you feel you like it, go get your lover and reel and rock it
Roll it over and move on up now, go for cover and reel and rock it
Roll it over, roll over Beethoven, dig these rhythm and blues

Roll over beethoven, roll over beethoven
Roll over beethoven, roll over beethoven
Roll over beethoven, dig these rhythm and blues?​
 
Much thanks Dr. Henley. Greatly appreciated. I do feel the vibes and enjoy them but it is also nice to know what they are singing too. I save the music video's for last, just before turning in for the night. They help shift my silly mind off of daily issues.

Here is one with visuals. I don't like this version of it nearly as much because they they muddied up the parts which came from Beethoven's 5th to the point where they are not recognizable. The juxtaposition of Beethoven's 5th and Rollover Beethoven is what I thought was pure genius and that is missing in this one.

But if you can't hear the music, it doesn't really matter...;)
