    Ever get a day when you need a boost? A song to play at full blast in the car to put you right?


    I'll start the ball rolling. If I'm a bit down I continuously play "Tubthumping" by Chumbawumba. I know it's not a classic by any stretch but it puts a smile on my face every time-never fails!!

    Wake up Boo----The Boo Radleys. An obvious choice because it's so positive and makes you glad to be healthy and alive.:)

    Happy Mondays - Lazyitis
    It's the lyrics, and the melody, it's serious captivating and fun.

    one man's trash is another's gold tbh.

    as to what picks me up, it's hard to pinpoint a song or even a type of song.

    i mean listening to a totally depressing song might pick me up sometimes as i think, thank christ i'm not as depressed at this guy.

    Unless muck is a euphanism for genius around your parts, I'm afraid I don't follow.

    But, here's something along the same lines that might be less likely to put you in a bad mood:

    Definitely puts a big smile on my face. :)
