Posted: 1/20/2008 5:19:04 PM | Soooo many great answers in the thread so far!
There are many, many answers for me on this one (music in general improves my mood), but if I had to name a single group it would be They Might Be Giants. I can't listen to their CD "Flood" without improving my mood.
eeek, Alice's Restaurant does it for me too. It just came on the radio here a couple of days ago and I grinned like an idiot and sang along...you usually don't hear it except on Thanksgiving (or if you live somewhere where you can catch the Dr. Demento show). | |

Posted: 1/25/2008 7:56:36 AM | | A good rock song (current favorite seems to be Thrash Unreal by Against Me) always does it, but i've seem to have gotten on a house/techno kick lately. | |

Posted: 1/26/2008 12:15:04 PM | | I agree that music in general makes me happy. I usually listen to more progressive rock, but when it comes to feel good music I get a little sappy: The Monkees, The Archies, Aretha Franklin, The Beatles, etc. And for those days I dread going to work or had a bad day, I always keep a Cheryl Crow CD in the car. She's a happy music machine. Reggae is also a good pick-me-up. | |

Posted: 2/1/2008 9:18:25 PM | | Today the Happy Song has been "Raindrops Keep Fallin' on My Head" because I am so glad I don't have to shovel it or put chains on my car to drive in it. California Dreamin' was in there today, too. (On such a winter's day!) | |

Posted: 6/12/2008 7:09:31 AM | I agree with Meface...
ANY Reggae will lift my spirits and make me sway a bit even if I am in "one of those moods."
 
I mean, how can you stay in a negative place for too long when it is all about One Love? | |

Posted: 6/14/2008 3:29:26 PM | Just about anything Beach Boys or Bob Marley (especially "Three Little Birds") will turn your frown upside down.
Fun songs like "Handlebars" (Flobots), "Love Me Dead" (Ludo), "The Bad Touch" (Blood Hound Gang), "Steal My Sunshine" (Len), or "Walking On the Sun" (Smash Mouth) will also perk ya up!
And if ya wanna go wayyyy back The Turtles and Herman's Hermits have TONS of great songs to be happy happy joy joy over! | |

Yes, I'm kidding.
How about Al Green, Marvin Gaye, and Smokey Robinson. | |
