How much of a correlation between the two do you think there is? Personally, I think they tie together rather tightly. Some people don't see a correlation at all, while I can't see how they can't see it.
I use music constantly to reaffirm my moods or get me into a better mood.

Like you, I find its correlated. Its what compels me what to rustle up during a phono session. I'll usually end up with a stack of albums on top of my big ole Theater 4 Pi's afterward. They do make a good platform for that. As well as divine listening.
Sometimes my mood though can dictate no music at all.
I think there is a direct correlation, albeit subtle. In my opinion, subtle influences like music on moods are the most potent influences. In a way, they're like words, as they can also influence people subtly.
I fully agree with you. To me, music is a very important part of my life. The correlation that music and mood have is the reason why people will listen to upbeat songs when they work out. Or when you're sad, you may listen to sad music. I can't go a day without listening to some type of music.

I try to exercise daily, and I have an upbeat playlist to pump me up when I'm just not in the mood to get off the couch. It helps motivate me every time. So, yeah, I can see the correlation there.
When you're down in the dumps about losing a lover, the last thing most people want to hear is a fast-paced fluffy dance tune. No, most of us want to wallow in it for a bit before moving on.
That's why that old Nazareth tune "Love Hurts" still gets airplay. We need sad songs for sad situations.
