I've recently been reminded of this which never fails to lift my mood, including the video:

Slade - Run Runaway.

I wanted to be Dave Hill.

What hits the spot for you?

Artist and title please - not just link smile

But really. An uplifting example of the genius of Kate Bush, Sunset. She can describe life at it's simplest best so well.

Bjork, Joga. This makes me feel good just looking at her ability to perform such beautiful music live.

hehe

I find songs make me think about the words which can be dangerous to most people. By that I mean, for most people, words can trigger bad memories and the cycle of thoughts can make you depressed thinking about things... rather than if I think about words, I go on the rampage with an AK-47.

I prefer listening to uplifting trance... here are some tunes that make me feel amazing.

As a rule, before doing my work at a cancer place, I only listen to trance so I bring happy vibes to the patients.

Dear All,

you all know the Undertones' Teenage Kick's but how about Graham Parker & the Rumour's Stick to Me - the best opening number of any live performance I've ever been to:
Studio clincky
Live clincky.,
