"Walking on Sunshine" (my niece sings it to me when I'm having a "sad day")

Me, too. Hated Disco, but loved Glam rock.

Ooh- it's not necessarily a 'feel good' song, but I love Billion Dollar Baby- Alice Cooper.

Livin' On A Prayer - Bon Jovi

Speaking of Alice Cooper, I liked him a lot more for this lyric (from School's Out):
Quote:

Well we got no class
And we got no principles
And we got no innocence
We can't even think of a word that rhymes

You Can Call Me Al -Paul Simon
Crazy -Gnarls Barkley
Everybody's Free (to Wear Sunscreen) -(For some reason my iPod doesn't tell me who sings this....it's from a commencement speech)
London Bridge -Fergie

The song is by Baz Lurhman. The text of it is often wrongly attributed to a Kurt Vonnegut commencement speech, when in fact it was from a column in a newspaper.

More details on the background of the speech from Snopes.

ETA: More info on the song from Wikipedia.

"I can see clearly now" - Johnny Nash

This is Stoat's (and My) #1 favourite feel-good song. :snap:

Hot on it's heels is:
"Make your own kind of music" by Mamma Cass
"Colour My World" by Peculiar Clark
