... what songs cheer you up?
I have to say ... but, since you haven't actually introduced yourself as a 'Newbie' on a thread of your OWN, I'd like to take this opportunity of Welcoming you HERE, if I may.
In these days of doom and gloom, what songs cheer you up?
I'll start with a few:
Outkast "Hey Ya!"
The Police "Every Little Thing She Does is Magic"
Stereophonics "Have a Nice Day"
Loved this songs
"10% of life is made up of what happens to you, 90% is decided by how you react"
"The way to love anything is to realize that it may be lost"
Those played at memorials, funerals, and divorce settlement parties..In these days of doom and gloom, what songs cheer you up?
I'll start with a few:
Outkast "Hey Ya!"
The Police "Every Little Thing She Does is Magic"
The Specials "Gangsters"
Any song by the Kaiser Chiefs - but fave is "I Predict a Riot"
Stereophonics "Have a Nice Day"
Madness "Baggy Trousers"
AJ
When I'm feeling down, I enjoy listening to Rancid's "Ruby Soho", The Offspring's "One Fine Day", anything by NOFX (hilarious band!) and of course Madness (any song really). The punk/ska styles of music always get me feeling upbeat.
