I was just listening to Nina Simone, Here Comes The Sun. Immediately felt like everything will untangle itself eventually!

What are the songs which never fail to cheer you up and make you feel positive?

Another one of mine has to be Groove Is In The Heart (Dee-Lite). No better way to start the day.

That's a good question. I'm not sure if music itself can solve the depressive states I get into -- at least not all the time. Music sometimes, no matter how happy, just doesn't cheer me up, but when it does --

Note: Don't worry I'm not a depressed person, but as any one sometimes I get a little down. :D

+1 for both of these.

Some others for me:
They Might Be Giants - Birdhouse in Your Soul (or most of the Flood album, really)

Grateful Dead - Cumberland Blues, Fire on the Mountain, Scarlet Begonias, ... well, again, almost everything, least up through 1980

John Coltrane - Giant Steps

Hepcat - No Worries

Ooh, awesome thread. Music doesn't make me feel better as much as remind me I'm not alone. I clearly listen to music when I'm feeling melodramatic :p

My current go to song is Illusions Of Bliss by Sarah McLachlan. I also love the Gilmore Girls theme.

I could listen to this on permanent loop from now until the end of my days, and never tire of it. Just beautiful.
