I hear you about music making you sad. Our reasons are probably different, but it sometimes happens to me too (luckily, not all the time).
And, for me anyway, it doesn't have to be sad music. It can be any music.
Music makes me emotionally vulnerable.
Sometimes it just seems to like, get into my soul... touch something that is usually unreachable... that makes me emotional... and the expression of it for me comes out in melancholy.

by the way, i definitely think your cold can be influencing your mood. it would certainly bring your overall energy level down. i hope it goes on its way soon and that you feel much better.
