What's Your Favorite Feel Good Song?

Meagan from over at The Lady Who Lunches tagged me in a meme to name my favorite feel good song. Do you know how hard that is. I mean, I am a sucker for all music (especially BAD music) (Rock Me Amadeus, anyone?). I thought long and hard, poured over my iTunes files, wracked my brain and came to a decision. While there were many candidates (sorry, "Jump Around" by House of Pain), there could only be one winner.

And the Winner is...

"More Than a Feeling" by Boston. No, it isn't just because Brad Delp, the original singer for the group has probably the best mustache known to man in the the music video. No, it isn't because my husband used to play the song constantly on Rock Band. No, it isn't because it is probably in one of the best scenes in the history of the show "Scrubs" (ok, it might be a little because of that). It is because it really is one of those songs that you can't help but either nod along to, or sing along to, or play a little air guitar to (not that I would EVER do that..ever...much.). I mean, it really just makes you FEEL good.

I dare you to not at least tap your toe along.



Also, if you have time watch the Scrubs version. Air band awesomeness.



I am going to pass this little meme along to....Tara from Sticky Fingers, Jess from This Life is MIne, Amy from The Bitchin Wives Club, Not From Around Here, and Melissa from Smitten By Britain. Tag your it. Have fun girls!!

That is a great question. I can think of plenty of favorite songs but not feel good songs. I love ballads and usually depressing things...

Supersonic by Oasis... great beat.
Sadly, I too love Rock Me Amadeus. And More than a Feeling is pretty good, but not an all time fave... as I was also tagged I will have to think hard. But I am stuck!
Oooh, oooh! I am going to think about this all afternoon! Off the top of my head, "Miss Chatelaine" by k.d. lang pops up.... I LOVE that song! Eeeee-very time your eyes meet mine, clouds of qualm burst into suuuuuuuuun-shine! I can't explain, why I become Miss Chatelaine!

Aaaaaah!
I love More than a Feeling - great. Happy music. :)
Oh, I remember that scene from Scrubs! Really really great scene. Think it just came up a couple of weeks ago.
Remember All McBeal and her theme song? That's what I feel like - whenever I feel down, I can just hum. Did you realize I never actually picked my best feel good song either....I just put down a song that was in my head...
Must think!
My fave happy song is 'Viva La Vida' by Coldplay. I call it the bouncy song, since watching them perform on "Today"...they bounced all the way through the performance....therefore I bounce when I hear it as well!

I love that song, it's now going to get stuck in my head again (second day in a row XD). For me The Day We Caught the Train by Ocean Colour Scene would be my happy song, mainly because of the memories it brings back.

Just wanted to say really enjoying your blog, found you via Not From Around Here's blog and am now reading yours backwards!

My feel good song is I'm Yours by Jason Mraz.
Ah i love that!!! The scrubs video just put the biggest smile on my face :)
My latest "feel good" song is "I Gotta Feeling" by the Blackeyed Peas. I LOVE hearing my oldest try to sing along!

God! How could I forget that mustache and hair?! Now that I'm unemployed I think I'm going to grow them both. HELLS YA!

And favourite feel good song? Just one?! How about REO Speedwagon, Roll With the Changes. That's right! The Speedwagon, dammit!
Everytime "Turn It On Again" by Genesis comes on the radio I crank it. If I'm not driving, then watch out for wicked dance moves coming your way!
"Hold me, Kiss me, Squeeze me" by Journey. Yeah, I said it.
I don't think I could ever narrow that down to one song. But I loved BOSTON and this was a great song! Brings back memories.
Perfect. One that came to mind was Bonnie Raitt's I Can't Make You Love Me, though it is the opposite of feel good.
I love the Scrubs version. Just classic! Made me smile this morning.
Okay, I gotta concede your right about the Boston song...dammit. :)

Yes! The Scrubs version is awesome! Love it! Although I must say my favorite Scrubs clip ever is Brickhouse. I laugh like a hyena every time...
OMG - WHAT A TOUGH QUESTION!?!?!? First of all, I'm "Kat" too, so automatically feel connected, girl!

Secondly, gosh... I'd say: "Hooked on a Feeling" ! Love this question! I'm in a good mood just thinking of that song!
