...You are feeling sad. Songs that you know will lift your spirits/make you feel happier.

Stupid kid or Radio by Alkaline Trio if it involves a girl, Boulevard of Broken Dreams by Green Day if I'm just feeling depressed.

Reality is a nice place to visit, but I'd hate to live there.

"I'm Still Alive" by Stratovarius. It's a metal song, so listen at your own risk. That said it's the closest I've heard to upbeat happy metal (instead of just metal that makes me happy because I like it), if that actually makes any sense at all.

Or else "so happy together" by the Turtles. That's one of my guilty pleasure songs, tucked in among all the dance and metal. Special place in my childhood, but it's a fun song for anybody.

Like watching other people play video games (badly) while blathering about nothing in particular? Check out my Youtube channel: joemamaUSA!

I never listen to songs I know will lift my spirits when I'm sad; that would make sense, and I don't do sense when I'm sad.

Mandorallen turned back toward the insolently sneering baron. 'My Lord,' The great knight said distantly, 'I find thy face apelike and thy form misshapen. Thy beard, moreover, is an offence against decency, resembling more closely the scabrous fur which doth decorate the hinder portion of a mongrel dog than a proper adornment for a human face. Is it possibly that thy mother, seized by some wild lechery, did dally at some time past with a randy goat?' - Mimbrate Knight Protector Mandorallen.

Excerpt from "Seeress of Kell", Book Five of The Malloreon series by David Eddings.

Well, I listen to the ONLY thing that makes sense whenever you're down.

Something violently happy, cause when I get depressed, I stop being depressed and get a brass section instead:

Ooooh, I love to listen to slow jams. Usually songs for making looooove to because they're full of emotion but still great beats.

Peep these:

I'm only 24, these songs were waaaaay before my time, but they're, imo, timeless. Still manage to get people in the mood.

I don't get depressed.
I don't think it's because I don't get 'sad', I think it's just because I don't dwell on it, the emotion pokes it head in, says 'hi' and gets told to sod off.

I've got better things to do than dwell on the negative things.

I've not heard of most of those bands - and I don't need to be depressed to listen to David Lee Roth or Europe.

As DLR once said - there's only TWO rules in life:
1). Don't sweat the little gak.
2). It's ALL little gak, so let's party!

Now he may have had his own psych issues and this attitude was an overcompensation reflex, but it works for me.

I'm OVER 50 (and so far over everyone's BS, too).
Old enough to know better, young enough to not give a ****.

That is not dead which can eternal lie ...

... and yet, with strange aeons, even death may die.

Glad to help, unfortunately, anything made since they got back together has been REALLY lackluster. They got a new singer, and IMO went downhill. Rump Shaker and their EP were excellent though.

Not a song, but the laughing is admittedly somewhat musical and it cheers me up none the less.
