Are There Songs That Just Get You Going?

If I hear La Grange by ZZ Top, it totally puts me in a good, energetic mood, no matter what Im doing. If Im driving, my car starts bouncing because I just GO... LOL

Its a Beautiful Day by U2 Makes me so happy I get tears in my eyes!

The Boys Of Summer, Don Henley is my 3 rd song like this, always makes me feel good!

I always tell my students (I teach HS) that if I come roaring into the parking lot with Ball and Chain by Social Distortion blaring, to give me a lot of space because it's been a rough morning at home : ) That song always makes me feel better. It's a good "yell-along" song.

I have been on a KLOVE kick ( it is a Christian Radio station) I can't not smile when I hear Audio Adrenaline's I Get Down, I love This is The Stuff by Francesca Battistelli too.
Pretty much anything by the Beatles, upbeat Billie Joel or Dave Matthews Band, also a big fan of Ben Folds Five...my music tastes kind of jump all over the place = ) When the kids are grumpy I will put on a cd I have had since forever, it is one of They Might Be Giants and we just sing along and dance silly = ) Music has always been a big part of my life all through growing up, my mom would listen to a lot of disco and to this day I pop some disco on if I need a pick me up = )
Great Question! I love seeing who other people like and finding new favorites! Thanks = )

80's rock. I have a Bon Jovi Pandora station and I listen to it ALL the time :)

If I want to feel a little more hip, I turn on some more recent dance tunes.

If I want to sing along, I turn on some country or some 80's ballads.

A gazillion of them.

That song from Rent is great, isn't it?

IDK why... but I LOVE Lady Gaga's Alejandro song. My butt starts shaking immediately.

And of course anything TOM PETTY! OMG.. Love him (borderline obsessed hehhee)

I'm so addicted to Auto Tune the News (schmoyoho) / Gregory Brothers right now, I just keep it on their two channels and listen to it.
