My latest feel good song is Heaven by The Lonely Boys from Texas. My last one before that was Song for You by Leon Russell.
Music is awesome, huh?

I love Heaven by Los Lonely Boys. I have alot of their stuff. I finally made my playlist and there are some serious and some silly, only songs that make me feel good, make me smile or lift my spirits. Some of the songs on the cd are:
'Shine' by Anna Nalick
'High Hopes' by Fred Astair
'Somewhere over the rainbow' Jason Castro
'Ordinary Day' Great Big Sea
'I have a Dream' Abba
'Don't Worry Be Happy' Bob Marley
'What a Wonderful World' Louis Armstrong

There's a few more I can't think of right now but they are all good ones.

My playlist is songs that I would like to learn on guitar. Some others are Peaceful Easy Feeling by the Eagles and I'm Yours by Jason Mraz. I listened to Carolyn Arends song. The music would fit in just right down south here. I liked her lyrics!

Sounds like we have similar tastes in music. I have alot of music on my computer, Eagles have a spot too - wish I had thought of Peaceful easy feeling before I burned the CD... next time.
Someone gave me the Carolyn Arends cd years ago, I had never heard of her but love her now. That cd is one of the few I own that I can put in and love every song.

I liked a song by Staind but when I bought the album, it was depressing. Music is supposed to make you put a smile on your face and I think the sun comes out when a really good song is on. lol!

I just added "I got a feeling" by the BEP as my ringtone. It is upbeat and the message is positive!

don't stop believing - Journey

I have a lot of songs that I find inspiring but one of them is the song hold on for one more day by Wilson Phillips. Another one is the song I will get there by Boys II Men on the Prince of Egypt sound track.

this one helps me in my own current circumstances, very soothing to me

spirit of love,by the firm......................

I also like different music for different purposes and moods.
For motivation and getting energized- Bon Jovi's Saturday Night
Gloria Gaynor's I will survive
U2's It's a Beautiful Day
Abba's Dancing Queen

For calming I like to listen to music without singing like classical music or sounds of nature with instrumental music

When I need to slow down, I like to listen to mellow music like Sarah McLachlan or Cold Play

"Somewhere Over the Rainbow" by Israel "Iz" Kaanoi Kamakawiwoole just moves me so much. It's just him and his ukelele but he has the most beautiful soothing voice. This almost always brings me to tears, but in a good way.

He has lots of other good songs too but this one is my fave.

Also, "Three Little Birds" - Bob Marley
"Hold On" - Wilson Philips
"Tubthumper" - Chumbawumba

I have mixed comment; When I am listening to Kasey's Coast and Coast they are in the early 1970s at this time which was the best and worst of times and I find myself crying with a lot of songs I hear and it helps me deal with the past better and brings back the good and not so good times. If you think about this in advance, its good, but be careful since it might have less affective or bad effects on you. I hope this hasn't been a pain to read since I can only share my experiences. I love Gospel music and that encourages me and my favorite songs make me cry. I am not doing all of this crying in public, since I feel better when I have cried if that helps.
