Ive been to a few poetry readings and they are very relaxing as well so if your stressed try going to a reading it might help
I'm actually unsure whether that would make English better or music worse. Trying overly hard to find meaning in something that, in my opinion, should just be appreciated as is, has greatly reduced my enjoyment of the material in question. (poetry and literature are probably the most notable examples)
