What song makes you feel better when you hear it? I'll throw out Roy Orbison's I drove all night and the Cure's Friday I'm in Love.

I love the Cure they and Wish is my fav I love them all but Friday I’m in love is a fav that helps me get through laundry and such it’s so happy

For me, it's Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah. I prefer the studio version.

I know, I know, Mr. Cohen isn't exactly joy personified, maybe I'm "unique." Yup, I'll go with that.

I loved Leonard Cohen. Someone once said it was music to commit suicide to and they were right.

Still love him of course but listened to all his stuff endlessly for years so not so much now.

I get it. Frankie and me haven't parted ways, but like you, not so much now.

no idea why but Kokomo by The Beach Boys always gives me a happy vibe :')

Pure joy. I was disappointed when I found out it wasn't a real place.

"Ong Ong" by Blur is a reliable feel-better tune.

'When Will I See You Again' by The Three Degrees. The harmonies are so uplifting and lush.

I love any songs by the original Westlife line up of 5 guys and not the selfish 4 boys who wouldn't let my favourite member rejoin the group when he asked to.

There a few others songs that cheer me up by Pink.

There are a lot of good ones, and music helps me to finally feel my emotions, one that helps me feel not so alone and a bit more hopeful is Jumper by Third Eye Blind. Also love Under the Bridge by Red Hot Chili Peppers and now at work when I get to laugh or cry status I like "Everything is awesome" the Lego movie song. "Lost my job - it's a new opportunity!", "Stepped in the mud - got new brown shoes!". 😁☮️😆

I have two:

Pure by The Lightning Seeds

And

Just A Man by Faith No More.

They are two songs that always make me smile or cheer me up.
