I know a lot of people don't like Robyn's "pop" phase, when he attempted to reach a wider audience, but this is the song that introduced me to Robyn Hitchcock, one of my favorite artists. It's actually a kind of bittersweet song, but the music and silly rhymes make me feel good.

Most songs I like do, but like, if I'm really feeling down, I guess there's a few I really like.

Susan Bell - My Only Star (eurobeat)

Vanessa Carlton - 1000 Miles

YBZ - Now That I Found You (eurodance)

Basically, most eurodance, eurobeat, etc, usually cheers me up.

Lol, now that's going to be stuck in my head the rest of the day!

Supergrass - Alright
The Rolling Stones - She's A Rainbow
Steve Harley & Cockney Rebel - Make Me Smile

Jamiroquai almost never fails as a mood-shifter for me.

I dunno why, but this song always makes me want to dance through the house awkwardly.

A lot of CCR's music makes me want to dance awkwardly too! I have my oldies-obsessed brother to thank for introducing me to this band.

Any songs by my baby, Starman by Bowie, countless other songs I'm into... I rarely listen to something which makes me feel bad,

These tend to do the trick:

CCR must have an awkward-dance inducing rhythm. I used to not like them because my dad listened to them constantly when I was growing up. I had to rediscover them on my own to start liking them.

Those Koji Kikkawa songs, yeah. Japanese music of that era in general has a tendency to make me feel great.

I love this song. It's kind of nostalgic for me.

"Snow Globe" by Matt Wertz (was on Noisetrade.com the last time I checked)
"Sunday Morning" by Maroon 5
"Keep Your Head Up" by Andy Grammer (but that's a given )
"Girl On The Roof" by David Mead (also on Noisetrade.com)
"If I Ever Feel Better" by Phoenix (helps me feel better when I'm depressed or anxious; any other time, the song is depressing, but it's still a good song)
