Notice Me Horton from Suessical the Musical and Live and Die by the Avett brothers. Those are the only two songs on my "Pick Me Up" playlist. Press play and repeat endlessly until I'm happy and dancing and singing loudly.

Wow, we're old, aren't we? Stop a 20 something on the street to ask about these songs and you'd get a blank stare. ;)


Or we would discover the song has been re-done and the 20-something figures it's new and cool. That's a little scary.

Me too!

Wait, I misunderstood. I thought you meant "Songs that make you want to drive a rusty nail into your own skull."


Another unneeded nasty comment.
You can do whatever, I was just answering the question.
The song makes *me* happy - thinking of happy memories of travel.

Yes! And many others mentioned:

And:
Sitting on the dock of the bay
Under the boardwalk
Sweet Caroline
Orinoco flow

Walking like an Egyptian (weird, I know)
El harba wine by Khaled (weirder, probably no one knows it here)
Wavin' flag by K'Naan (celebration/World Cup mix- very different from the original song lyrics, though I love all versions, especially the Spanish one with David Bisbal)

And of course: Ode to Joy/Freude schöner Götterfunken

Thanks OP and everyone - I'm bookmarking this thread - always looking for great songs!
