Songs that can alter your mood (1 Viewer)

Because I have a bit of down time at work today...

Songs that can instantly perk up my mood if I randomly hear them:
This must be the place – Talking Heads.
I am a scientist – Guided By Voices
I’ll be you – The Replacements
Swimming song – Loudon Wainwright III
Underwhelmed – Sloan

I can only think of one song that puts me in a bad mood:
Heart of Gold – Neil Young.

 

[Unicron]

Most of the Wrens' catalog.
