I thought passion was an intense feeling of love applied to life. To revel in the struggle, instead of feeling content. You can't live with passion all the time, how can it be intense if you feel it all the time?

Then it is the music that stimulates your passion, not the more mundane aspects of life. Playing the music may distract you from the ennui, but there are plenty of boring, routine things in daily life that are far from passion-inducing.

That's the only type of "passion" I've ever known. And one of the definitions of "passion" does refer to anger. For me, it's the only definition.

On the other hand, anger can also lead to cheap music albums like "St. Anger" filled with nothing but cheapass, fake Entombed rip-offs. (But that's a totally different story altogether.)

Bad music is a tool of the dark side.

Seebsie, did you see the Dead Ringers Christmas special? They had a p**s-take of Mr Blunt's record that I found particularly clever.

Nah, I didn't even know there was a special on, bugger. I saw the Avid Merrion special though, that was quality. He even had Corey Feldman on it.
