If this list so far has been too much cheese for you, you can just throw on something super weird like Grace Jones, the tall weird black chick from Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome, who specializes in futuristic synth pop funk. In fact, he speaks to the total dork in us all. There are few who dislike him, even though he’s such a dork. This goofy satirist has a career spanning many decades, and each of his songs is a self-contained masterpiece. When Weird Al’s on, you’re more than likely going to stop crying, if only momentarily. This song is from Bee Thousand, which I recommend. If you like the Beatles psychedelic period, or the Kinks, or even The Who, who GBV seems to be in some kind of self-imposed belated competition with for most boisterous band, then you’ll probably dig this band. Pollard has written more songs than pretty much anyone. Guided by Voices is a band lead by former school teacher Robert Pollard, who only achieved any kind of band success in his mid-30’s, quitting his job as a high school math teacher to sign with Matador Records and become a rock and roll God.

So, you can either put it on and shake off those blues with this track, or you’ll be more enraged than ever. This song is borderline cheeseball (or maybe it’s over the border, I don’t know), but it also is just a very unabashedly happy song that should remind you that happy emotions are out there, even if you aren’t feeling them. Walking on Sunshine – Katrina & The Waves If some gold digger is out for your money, just totally reaching into your bank account and nabbing all your cash, and that’s what’s irking you, then blast this song and tell that gold digger their time has come and it’s time to get the fuck out! This is another great, upbeat song, which you may or may not be able to relate to in your situation. So hateful, and yet so upbeat at the same time.Īnother song that you can’t listen to and not help but spit out those 30 Advils you were just about to swallow. We figured this song would fit into the theme of the article quite nicely. So, if you listen to this tune, and you don’t feel groovy, you can sue Simon and Garfunkel, and tell them we sent you.

It’s not all sunshine and lollipops here, but anyways, this is a list of some of the best music I could find, express finished to make you smile. I might scoff at music you like and you might scrunch up your nose at my choices, but, sometimes, just sometimes, if you expand your horizons, and give a song a chance to cheer you up, it might just do that.

List of songs that will make you feel better when your life just sucks Nothing can make the world seem better than music – well, maybe chocolate, sunshine, and piping hot coffee on a cold winter morning, warm socks and autumn colours, a doggy welcome and April showers, but I’m hoping you catch my drift by now.
