training aid: Keep Yourself Alive by Queen - classicdrogn - 05-24-2020
non-embedded (also part of a playlist of the Queen Official channel)
Another one that's old enough that it's probasbly been on Doug's list for a while, IC if not used in game or in story. While the title suggests a healing song, the lyrics are more along the lines of the things you need to live rather than just survive, with the repeated theme being "keep on trying, a little better, a little stronger every day," which to me suggests acting to let Doug and possibly anyone working with him within his AoE to use it like the theme to a training montage, getting a complete workout or lesson or whatever to make an optimal day's progress in the chosen subject without over-stressing body or mind. Of course, that's so obviously useful that it would be sort fo a wonder that it hadn't come up IC, but it could easily be part of just the unremarked downtime "stay fit and keep advancing" work of an RPG (based) character.

Hmmmmm...
Maybe Doug played it for some of his students in that dojo where he taught... in Tokyo-3. After all, "keep on trying, a little better, a little stronger every day" could also be an "instill confidence in yourself" effect. (No reason the song can't do both at the same time.)
