Things that make me go, "What???"
Oldies but goodies that make me happy
Music
I listen to a WIDE variety of music, from the Carpenters to Five Finger Death Punch, from safe for children and work to not safe for anyone else to hear! What I listen to depends on how I'm feeling and what I need in that moment. Sometimes it's Three...
This is a good one when I'm feeling defeated. It always makes me smile and pumps me up!
Argent - Hold Your Head Up [Classic Rock] : r/Music
I mean, come on. This is a classic for a reason. Every day we wake up, we can celebrate and be grateful!
Celebration - song and lyrics by Kool & The Gang
I find myself singing this when I'm struggling. “I just want to celebrate another day of living.” Sometimes that's all we can do. But this always makes me happy.
I Just Want To Celebrate - song and lyrics by Rare Earth
Okay, so this is a brand new song and it's very silly. But he talks about depression and how it's hard to deal and be happy. And it's Rob Thomas, so . . . Yeah!
r/popheads - Rob Thomas - Hard To Be Happy/Thrill Me
This one is heavier and louder, but I like it. Don't want to wake up brain dead. Hehehe.
BRAINDEAD (feat. Toby Morse) - song and lyrics by Papa Roach ...
This is amazing! As a teen I loved Judas Priest. The combo of Rob Halford and Five Finger Death Punch thrills me! And the lyrics. I won't be broken, I won't be tortured, I won't be beaten down. I have the answer, I can take the pressure, I will turn ...
Lift Me Up (feat. Rob Halford of Judas Priest) - song and lyrics by Five Finger ...
I love this song! I believe there is hope for better days. No matter what this world will tell you, do not live in fear! Very uplifting stuff from a heavy metal band!
I Believe - song and lyrics by Killswitch Engage
So good! Another heavy metal band with an excellent message and a great tune! I'm exactly who I wanna be!
Beartooth's "Might Love Myself"
Here's an oldie but goodie that makes you get up and move!
Wang Chung: Everybody Have Fun Tonight (Music Video 1986)
Love this. Give me something to believe in. It probably means something different than what it makes me feel, lol, but I still like it. It has a great beat and catchy tune. I'm a little freaked out by the line, It's almost like a tongue on the back o...
Nine Inch Nails - As Alive As You Need Me To Be (Spotify Link) : r/nin
I don't know why, but this one makes me happy, too. There are a lot of f-bombs, but it's too true. The YouTube video is hilarious, too!
Five Finger Death Punch - Jekyll and Hyde
Love David Draiman from Disturbed and his part in this song cracks me up. They try to own us and control us so we don't get in the way, but we get in the way. Haha! Go David!
NOTHING MORE ft David Draiman - ANGEL SONG
Love, love, love this! It's so gorgeous! Papa Roach's original version is upbeat and good, but this is haunting. It's SO good!
Falling In Reverse - "Last Resort (Reimagined)"
Another good one. Hits home and feels like a warm hug. It's all going to be all right!
Jelly Roll- I am not okay
Such a good song! Do it. Do it today. Put a little love in your heart! Please!
Annie Lennox & Al Green - Put A Little Love In Your Heart [HQ]
Things that make me go, "What???"
Sometimes I'm loving a tune but then I hear some lyrics and they stop me in my tracks. What did they just say? LOL
Lol. This one had me at the first line: Like sticks and stones and your words hurt me. I was really into the song, even though it's sad, but I couldn't understand the second line. I thought it might be something about a pretty face. I finally looked ... NOT what I was expecting! I still love the tune and like the song, though.
Mudvayne – Sticks and Stones Lyrics
I really like the songs that have a nursery rhyme/fairy tale element. This one took me by surprise with it's harshness. The tune is catchy and I didn't realize at first what they were saying in the chorus. It has a wolf in sheep's clothing, which rem...
Set It Off – Rotten Lyrics
Oldies but goodies that make me happy
Some of these songs are kind of sad, but they're just such good songs that hearing them makes me happy. Enjoy!
This is such a happy song! Love it!
Song Sung Blue - song and lyrics by Neil Diamond
I haven't met anyone yet who doesn't know this song!

Such a great song! Sad, but lovely!
One - song and lyrics by Three Dog Night
One of my absolute favorite songs! So beautiful!
Neil Diamond - I Am...I Said (Live At Madison Square Garden / 2008)
Love this song!! I dare you to try to sit still! You can't do it! LOL
Gonna Make You Sweat (Everybody Dance Now) (feat. Freedom Williams)
This song makes me happy. And it reminds me that there's always something to be grateful for. Weirdly, sometimes when I can't sleep I'll suddenly hear this song in my head! And even though I get less sleep, when I wake up I feel happy!
I Just Want To Celebrate
Another oldie but goodie. Calming and uplifting. Paints such a joyful picture. Can you dig it? Yes, I can!
Chicago - Saturday In The Park (1973)
Okay, lol, this one is not uplifting, but I love it! I've mentioned I love songs with nursery rhymes, etc. And this one has nursery rhymes, bagpipes, creepiness, and more, LOL.
Korn - Shoots and Ladders
This song is a good reminder that as women, we're in this together and we have the power. And it's just a beautiful song! (But at least one of the YouTube videos has dancing that is . . . scary, lol.
Chaka Khan - I'm Every Woman
