What songs make you happy?

Believe it or not, anything by Depeche Mode ?

I put on dance music, immediately depressed.

Put on Rock music, it takes me back to a time when I was young, free and optimistic.

I will stick to Depeche Mode ?

Currently Spaceman by the Killers - also I saw the video for the first time last night and it's very David Bowie. Cheestastic!

I heard a song on the radio this morning that lifted my spirits, a bit of early 90s happy house - Shanice, I Love Your Smile.

I've just been listening to Chris Evans on 'Listen Again' (thank goodness for internet radio...US radio is pants in comparison) and he's just played 'Bring Me Sunshine', which always makes me smile.

I used to love David Bowie! Did the Shanice song have a really cheesy video with it? Town Called Malice makes me want to jump around too. In fact, I had the Teenage Kicks CD on through the week and it made me want to find a ska club to bounce around like a loon.

Anyone remember Nellie the Elephant by The Toy Dolls?

All the small things - Blink 182

Proud Mary-the Ike and Tina version

Actually, all music makes me happy even the slow/sad stuff as i just love music it makes me happy to have it on.

Cheese is good off course!

Chaka is also a tonic and theres nothing like a bit of pretendy rock -anything by Europe, or Bon Jovi

Incidentally if you really want to know the meaning of life in a dancy pop tune - Prince fits the bill every time. Glam slam anyone? Cant give a link as the Purple one doesn't like utube

This was on the radio this morning and I was humming it all day - the kids were very bemused

At the moment it's "They don't care about us" by Michael Jackson - it makes me smile because it reminds me of the street dance class I used to go to and the funky routine we did to it. Well, I say "we", the teacher looked funky but the rest of us were pretty hopeless ?

Still, makes me want to jump up and strut my stuff <dances round the kitchen> and it is great for listening to at the end of a run ?

Elton John - Are you ready for love? Just hearing the intro makes me smile.

Queen - Don't stop me now

James Taylor - How sweet it is

Amy Winehouse - Valerie

Bit of a random selection but hey-ho.

I like these threads as they always give me ideas for tracks I want on my ipod!

I believe in a thing called love

Yellow Submarine

Fifi and the Flowertots theme tune/song

MC Hammer Cant touch this

500 miles

Mister Blue Skies

lots more but too tired to think!

I am loving My Delirium (sp) at the minute as well. Bon Jovi and Europe are great. Was it the Skorpions who sang Wind of Change (or something like that)?

Just the opening 30 second of Sweet Child makes me feel amazing! Can't beat G'n'R, just makes me feel amazing

Nothing's Gonna Stop Us - Starship

Filthy/Gorgeous - Scissor Sisters (reminds me of my best girlie mates)

Mr Brightside - The Killers (reminds me of going out on the piss in Clapham)

Anything by Tenacious D makes me laugh. Gym Class Heroes also amuse me.

I usually like a good bit of angry screamy metal when I'm sad so Korn, Slipknot, Stone Sour and Disturbed.

I also secretly like Miley Cyrus and the Ting Tings.

I'm REALLY sorry....

but his makes me smile always.
