Songs That Lift You Up (Feelgood Choons)
:lol2:OOOh now I've listed my fave feelgood songs before and to be honest they havn't changed, but there is one addition as I had clean forgot about it untill I heard it on the radio the other night.
Now it's not really a text book feel good song but when I heard it for the first time in years t'other night I was singing from start to finish and nearly rang up Radio 2 to beg em to play it again
Anyhoo it is Scott Walker's (of walker brothers fame) brilliant translation of Jacques Brel's Jackie
(it was origionally in french)
Find it listen to it and smile
oh sod it here is a (not very good quality) link to a live performance

loads and loads and loads of tunes that have a pic-me-up factor for me, but one that instantly springs to mind is Sandstorm by Darude.
no matter what mood i'm in this always pumps me up to the limit :thumbup:

hmmmm, this tune has a rather more desirable effect on Mrs. Pete :twisted:
I feel anothe thread comming on
never mind Choon.... I feel good too... (at least Iiiii think so!)
as for uplifting stuff... don't have any faves as such, but when I hear something unexpectedly, or a forgotten tune comes out of the collection, no matter the lyrics, if the feel is right, I'm *solid gone* for a few minutes at least....
as for some of those forgotten tunes, several mentioned here already...
I tend to join threads like this without putting forward my own suggestions, but blurting out: "oh yeah...that one!" etc etc
B52's... memories... Planet Claire and all that, the whole albumn was fantastic, must get it .... again!!!!!!
and of course the Cure, fantastic band, very much a feel all of their own, and able to produce brilliant pop as well....

He can't get on the forum at the moment, but I know he wants to offer himself for a feelgood sampler session to anyone who cares to avail themselves.
Bloody tart!
