Songs That Perk You Up

[pax]

What are some songs that are always bad-mood-killers for you--those songs that, no matter what kind of a horrible day you've had, always put a smile on your face?

Here are some of mine:

"Brass in Pocket" the Pretenders
"New Horizon" David Gray
"The Rafters" Moby
"Piove" Lorenzo Jovanotti (the lyrics are in Italian so I have NO IDEA what the song is about, but it's such a happy-*sounding* little song at least...)
"So Pure" Alanis Morrissette
"Everything's Not Lost" Coldplay

 

[HeadsOnSticks]

Too Sexy: Right Said Fred

And "Gloria," by Van Morrison.

Also, anything off of "Vulgar Display Of Power" by Pantera.

Ooooh...I can't forget...

There are so many:

Pretty much anything by:

Bouncing Souls
Flogging Molly
Weezer's Green album
Cake
Jurassic 5's Quality Control album
Zwan

 

[HelloAngel]

"Puttin on the Ritz" - Taco

No matter what has happened that day - Taco always gets me dancing and laughing!!

 

[Strato Edge]

""Beautiful Day" U2- If that song doesn't perk you up, you have no pulse.

 

[Moonlit_Angel]

"Puttin on the Ritz" - Taco

No matter what has happened that day - Taco always gets me dancing and laughing!!

I rather like that song. It's very odd.

My pick:

"In A Little While"-U2

Such a sweet little tune.

My dearest school friend and I used to get a lot of mileage out of the saying "perk up your spirits"

I miss Annie Antelope.

I just drove home and was feeling a bit down after seeing a dead echidna and a dead kangaroo and a dead sugar glider and a dead owl on the road
I was listening to JT and had a good old sing along to the
woahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh woahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh bit in
With or Without You

I like to sing along with Kasey "I'm A Little Bit Lonesome" and her duet with The Living End "Crossfire"
