The most uplifting songs ever!!!

Definitely not!!

I was joking. But it does bring back some nostalgic memories

I don't know of any of my fave songs off hand. Perhaps a few Robin Beck songs, like 'First Time' or 'Love Yourself'. If you know who she is?

Ahh just for the taste of it diet coke... have you listened to some of the previous songs on various post. Some a very very good ones, kinda beat the 'First Time'

There are lots that can be trawled out, and sadly most of mine are sports team related:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PYTrJthTRao It's the melody from a glam song "We all need somebody to love!" - Noddy thingy the Brummy sang it - Slade? But when I worked with Eintracht, I had no idea of it, then I was doing a pitchside walk before a game (1999) and looked up from the running track (now gone) and almost cried.

Cat Stevens - Peace Train From the movie Remember the Titans

Madness - Our house - which my team played after we won a home game in the arena

And one that'll probably have me disgraced: Brian Kennedy's - Every song is a cry for love - I slowdanced with my baby to it, baby being the operative word, her Mam was getting much deserved rest and I took our Anni to the living room, put on the cd low and sang and danced with her.

Katjusha - our club song of sorts, with kind of interesting lyrics (anti-Zadar, Split and Rijeka) but in Croatian, not Russian, and not sung as well as this. Great to sing with a beer in hand.

Any ones in particular? - I listened to some of the previous ones but they're not really my cup of tea.
 
Despite the fact that Andy Irvine forgot some of the words during this performance, to me, The Blacksmith by Planxty is a really intense & exciting piece of music - I love playing this while driving.
 
I'm just watching the Last night of the Proms so it has be Jerusalem. Even if it's not popular on an Irish site.

Otherwise "Something inside so Strong: by Labi Sifi (sp?).

"Siffri" I think.

Yeah 'Jerusalem' is a good one - but has connotations of Empirialism unfortunately. Emerson Lake & Palmer do a good rock/classical crossover version.

ELP fan, Caveat??? Thought they'd be a bit 70's keyboardy for your tastes!

back on topic, not my usual taste in music but Buttercup Baby by The Foundations always lifts my spirits. Well, on the odd occasion they need lifting.
