We all have those songs that as soon as they come on the radio, it automatically puts you in a good mood. You might not know all the words, but it doesn't matter. Either you can't sit still and you start tapping your foot or you have to get right up and start dancing. It can either be a funny, joking song...or just an all around awesome song.

What's yours?

Mine is easily Will2k by Will Smith. It's just...hilarious. It always puts me in a good mood.

Fools Gold by The Stone Roses - always guaranteed to get me smiling and dancing when I hear it on the radio. Brightens up my work day A close second would be A Boy Named Sue by Johnny Cash (not that I hear it very often on the crappy station I have to listen to at work)

Rock the Casbah or whatever it's called always makes me laugh when you hear their funny little British accents I can't even understand what they're saying but it sure is funny how they say it.

Sober enough to know what I'm doing, drunk enough to really enjoy doing it

Groove Is In the Heart - Dee-Lite

A lot of stuff by the Chemical Bro's.

There's a lot more. 80's had a lot of fun songs, but not feeling retro at the moment!

Smokie_UK1: "INSOMNIAC KILLER"; +5|6453

What tune puts a smile on my face from the radio, hmmmmm let me think. NONE. Because once you hear a tune for the first time and like it, give it a week or two and it gets played that fucking much you end up wanting to kill the artist or commit suicide. Don't get me wrong i do have favourite tunes but they don't get played on the radio (to explicit), that's why i prefer to listen to one of the many tunes on my MP3 player so every bit of music that runs through these ears always puts a smile on this face.

If you like that I assume you like the original: Rock the Casbah by The Clash?

Songs for me (that put me in a good mood) go through phases.

It just makes me want to strip

It makes me laugh, the lyrics don't make sense. Which I find funny in some way.

Evanescence--Lithium

This song makes me feel good because my girlfriend looks almost exactly like Amy Lee and can sing this song almost exactly the same as well.

My girlfriend is like an Amy Lee clone. I have no quarrels with that.

Flyleaf--Fully Alive
