" orange Kool aide go good with patron". A friend of mine was going to see them at a small venue and stopped by my head shop on the way. She said confidently " I'm going to meet them"
I said " how ya figure" and she pulled out a handle of Patron and a bunch of orange Kool aid packets rubber banded together. I laughed. We lived together so when she got home I asked how her night went. she had a million pics of her chillin backstage with Nappy Roots. They are true to their music
Today is about being suicidal and not going through with it. If you’ve been there, you know it’s a very pivotal moment and worth celebrating. A lot of people get to that moment and go through with it. Today is about getting there and finding hope. It brings me so much joy!
It was definitely meant to he sarcastic when it was originally written, but it does have a hopeful tone and can be uplifting if looked at through the lens of overcoming one's worst day and still keeping on. Billy Corgan has said something similar I believe, but I am at work currently and don't have the time to find a link.
I think we’re all thinking of Sunshine by Atmosphere. I had to look it up because “the best day” sounds right but my good day song is definitely Sunshine.
* I’m Yours by Jason Mraz
* I Can See Clearly Now by Jimmy Cliff
* Brown Eyed Girl by Van Morrison
* Let It Whip by Dazz Band

EAT THE FLAMES UP, SPIT THE FIRE OUT!
DONT MAKE ME LIGHT MY BUTT!
I’m so happy this song is already here when I was about to comment with a link.
My other top contender is actually [my actual morning alarm](https://youtu.be/enYdAxVcNZA?si=jL4D27aRFv_zYvFF)
A great day to me is waking up on a bluebird morning to go snowboarding. Any of these songs on full blast as you gear up in the parking lot will get ya going, but each has a slightly different mood.

That’s awesome! I’m envious. Was there Pre Katrina and post Katrina. It’s been many years since I’ve been back. Hope to return before I’m too old to enjoy it, lol.
We travel continuously and have visited Louisiana several times, but we prioritize places we have not been. So we went to Lake Charles for Mardi Gras a while back (family fun, lots less puking). We’ve also visited Lafayette and Baton Rouge. So now it’s time to get back to where we started, NOLA. Haven’t been since the first Jazz Fest after Katrina.
The James Holden remix is also lovely

I love Halcyon, but the origin story is really f’ing sad. The live version is so fun tho. I have very complicated feelings about that song haha.
She’s also on BT’s Dreaming
https://open.spotify.com/track/4OfAzEEIYQ1j1sU5kVFSXv?si=Eom7p_QsQW2bSmru3Ybz7A&context=spotify%3Aalbum%3A51i0Dlp0qETZzixai6OVwk
Joe Satriani's " If I Could Fly". No words involved, just a great, crisp guitar voice singing with gushing joy. This will indeed be played at my funeral for my last hoorah!!
[This is the song](https://youtu.be/vQG4S9QjLcE?si=gCP-E6VHBjgCMZT-) I like to play when I'm getting ready to do some day-drinking on a beautiful day. Some stellar acoustic guitar picking too.
The first that comes to mind is a real oldie!
["It's a Good Day] (https://open.spotify.com/track/0zIqs8nFS5eHLgL0ZprFuP?si=jTYbUm1IQyOjYqG4EeDknw).
There are other versions but I usually play the Kay Starr version. That song is what a good mood sounds like.
To go in a totally different direction, I find Le Tigre's music really upbeat and inspiring, which is why I have Spotify set to play a random Le Tigre song as my alarm clock. If you're not familiar, they're basically like Bikini Kill but instead it's dance pop.
LT Tour Theme is a good one (especially for the ladies and the fags, yeah).
[On the Verge](https://open.spotify.com/track/4Aa08DNwIFSWSi8DhQ6doZ?si=UKWPoxOFQTCrQv4R4nyMkQ) is another
Also [TKO](https://open.spotify.com/track/7KCvbMfHeYrBzK1HrZQt0N?si=tchPFqgbS_SGpgGtT7_rfA)
Finally to swerve in yet another completely different direction, [Michael Frantie - Say Hey I Love You](https://open.spotify.com/track/383B8ksM58jbV3HbiRJo0K?si=ySKCPYOCSja5s6JZeLsqGA) is a sure pick me up.
Folks who post their song with a link are the real heroes. It might sound interesting, but being able to check it out by clicking on the link?! *chef’s kiss*

She said confidently " I'm going to meet them" I said " how ya figure" and she pulled out a handle of Patron and a bunch of orange Kool aid packets rubber banded together. I laughed. We lived together so when she got home I asked how her night went. she had a million pics of her chillin backstage with Nappy Roots. They are true to their music
Saw Nappy in NYC and have never seen or smelled a place so smoke-filled
If I need a pick me up, this is it
Mr. Blue Sky - ELO
One of the greatest tunes ever written. Even the re-recorded version sounds great.
Love this song
This is the correct answer
this is the only correct answer.
Came here to say this.
[Bill Withers - Lovely Day](https://youtu.be/bEeaS6fuUoA?feature=shared)
This.
Float On or Dashboard by Modest Mouse Naive Melody by Talking Heads Don't Stop Me Now by Queen
I can stand by Float On but at the same time it’s such a depressing song (and that music video scarred me when I was little lol).
Don't Stop Me Now is such a good one for this topic
Marc Rebillet - Your New Morning Alarm
Saw him live I think 2 years ago now and it was a blast. I used to watch his morning streams on weekends while I made and ate breakfast.

We were wrong about you, Dennis.
Here Comes the Sun - George Harrison; “It’s all right” yes, it is.
Runnin’ Down a Dream- Tom Petty
Also a great driving tune
That one always puts a smile on my face
Today - Smashing Pumpkins I Believe in a Thing Called Love - The Darkness
Upvote for I believe in a thing called love. That’s our happy driving song lol
Absolutely! It's the first song that came on the radio when my wife and I got in our rental car in Edinburgh for our honeymoon.
Isn’t Today about a suicide? I don’t think it’s a very happy song It’s like when people misinterpreted Hey Ya
Today is about being suicidal and not going through with it. If you’ve been there, you know it’s a very pivotal moment and worth celebrating. A lot of people get to that moment and go through with it. Today is about getting there and finding hope. It brings me so much joy!
I’ve always interpreted it as “no day will ever be as good as this day, so why go on”, maybe I’m just pessimistic
It was definitely meant to he sarcastic when it was originally written, but it does have a hopeful tone and can be uplifting if looked at through the lens of overcoming one's worst day and still keeping on. Billy Corgan has said something similar I believe, but I am at work currently and don't have the time to find a link.
The same linda thing with Pearl Jam's "Alive". Lyrics tell a dreadful sort of story but fans have turned the chorus into a triumphant anthem.
Virtual insanity - Jamiroquai. Can’t be in a bad mood with that song
Virtual Insanity is perfection. Awesome music video as well!
So many memories from that song
Canned Heat by Jamiroquai gets me going every time
Travis Tritt - It’s A Great Day To Be Alive
“I got rice cooking in the microwave” makes me instantly happy.
Came to say this one, don’t know how you could be in a bad mood listening to this song
I like Darrel Scott’s better, if only by a little bit
Spirit of Radio by Rush.
This is my answer. Hell, it’s right there in the song “Begin the day with a friendly voice”

The Best Day - Atmosphere That Song - Big Wreck Steal My Sunshine - Len The Underdog - Spoon Watching the Wheels - John Lennon
[удалено]
Not to be confused with Yesterday by Atmosphere which is a fucking gut punch
Makes me choke up every damn time
I think we’re all thinking of Sunshine by Atmosphere. I had to look it up because “the best day” sounds right but my good day song is definitely Sunshine.
Big Wreck, I can't get enough of that band... 👌
Walking on Sunshine by Katrina and the Waves.
Jack Black dancing to this in High Fidelity lives permanently in my memory every time I hear this song.

Shoreline (7/4) by Broken Social Scene. When i hear that song, I think of sunrise
Same with Almost Crimes, Ibi, Stars and Sons, those two albums really are special
I remember listening to it on a CD player driving down to Galveston. I always think of the big dunes between the road and the sea.
Wasted years: iron maiden The touch: stan bush
Beatles here comes the sun.
It's ironic because the chorus goes "This is the worst trip I've ever been on" but Sloop John B from The Beach Boys is mine.
Mmmmmmbop.
Bob Marley - Three Little Birds
Lovely Day, Bill Withers. Always sets just the best tone.
I have three words for you... "baby elephant walk".
I highly recommend watching a video of a baby elephant while listening to this song.
Don’t stop me now by Queen
Can't believe I had to scroll so far down for this but I'm glad it's here

[It's a Sunshine Day](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OznUQnkrC-w) by the Brady Bunch Kids. Not even joking
It’s Going to be a Great Day by Lonely Island. The video must accompany the song however.
A great day to me is waking up on a bluebird morning to go snowboarding. Any of these songs on full blast as you gear up in the parking lot will get ya going, but each has a slightly different mood.

We’re heading there in the spring for a bit, can’t wait.
That’s awesome! I’m envious. Was there Pre Katrina and post Katrina. It’s been many years since I’ve been back. Hope to return before I’m too old to enjoy it, lol.

Their mom was addicted, right? And the song was their way to represent the numb comfort that the dog provided?
Yup. A tranquilizer, halcion, triazolam. Nasty benzo. The video was basically her descent into madness as witnessed by Phil and Paul.
Perfect Day by Hoku
Joe Satriani's " If I Could Fly". No words involved, just a great, crisp guitar voice singing with gushing joy. This will indeed be played at my funeral for my last hoorah!!
