And like you, my 'fancy' gets struck with various stuff over a long ride - sometimes relaxing, sometimes snappy, sometimes random...This.
Having all your music (or a metric tonne of it) with you allows the ability to listen to anything that strikes your fancy.
Some people listen to only the same few things all the time. A playlist or three can cover those bases. Others may want the option to go from Merle to Shostakovich to Buddy Holly or Stevie Ray Vaugh or Miles. Who knows. While I've found random play doesn't work really well on a 65G catalog it can still dredge up a long lost nugget that's a pleasant surprise. The only playlist I have is labeled 415Music. The rest is song or album or shuffle. Choice is good.
