Robin
Sound system by Operation Ivy

“Strawberry Deluxe” by Skulker
“Violet” by Hole
“Sir Psycho Sexy” Red Hot Chilli Peppers
I’m with you on that one, Sara.
And I’m probably worse than anyone on this count…I just have to think or hear one line of certain songs and I’m bouncy for hours.
“Why do you build me up, Buttercup baby, just to let me down? And mess me around…”
“Just give me some kind of sign now, yeah m’baby, to show me that you’re mine now, oh yeah…”
“We’re so sorry, Uncle Albert…”
Yeah, I’m a lost case.
sigh Sheesh. That would be a lost *cause.[i/] Truer words were never spoken.
“Itchycoo Park” by the Small Faces (It’s all too beautiful…)
“Rainy Day Woman #13 and 52” (whatever! His only song I can stand.) by Bob Dylan (Everybody must get stoned!)
“Fight for Your Right To Party”, “Sabotage”, and “Body Movin’” by the Beastie Boys.
“Sweet City Woman” by…somebody. (She feeds me love and tenderness and macaroons.)
“Sir Duke”, “Superstition”, “Isn’t She Lovely”, and “Never Had a Dream Come True” by Stevie Wonder (Get that last one! God knows why it hasn’t become better known.)
“Daydream” by the Lovin’ Spoonful.
“All Star” by Smash Mouth. (Don’t know why I like this.)
“Pretty Fly for a White Guy” and “Why Don’t You Get a Job?” by the Offspring. (Ditto.)
Since there’s about a billion of these, I’ll skip to the best, the king of them all, “In The Summertime” by Mungo Jerry. Hunted for years to get this. It was worth it.
Depends on my mood at the time; all the following work for me.
“Don’t Worry, Be Happy” – Bobby McFerrin
“Beautiful Day” – Beach Boys (Americathon soundtrack)
“Axel F” – Harold Faltmeyer(?)
“Party All Night” – Quiet Riot
“Boys Are Back In Town” – Thin Lizzy
“Roadrunner” – The Gnats
“South of the Border” – Herb Alpert and the Tijuana Brass
Any polka by Weird Al Yankovic
A strange and eclectic mix, but effective nonetheless.
Great list so far. Really good songs. These are the ones that popped up in my mind when I first read it
River of Dreams- Billy Joel
Love in an Elevator- Aerosmith
So What- Metallica
Stray Cat Strut- Stray Cats
Great Balls of Fire- Jerry Lee Lewis
Cottoneye Joe- Rednex (I don’t know why. It makes me happy)
That’s all I can think of right now. The stuff I’ve read has been good stuff that also works. I’m sure others will post things that I’ll say… “OOOH yeah!”
Isn’t that one by the Isley Brothers, too?
My #1 all time bouncy song: “I’m All Right” by Kenny Loggins. You know - the Caddyshack song. Never fails to put me in a good mood.
Then there’s “Jet City Woman” by Queensryche…
Here’s a few that haven’t been listed yet:
Some soul standards (this is real soul music, guys, not that modern crap):
Hold On by Sam & Dave
In the Midnight Hour by Wilson Pickett
Get Ready by a whole bunch of people; my favorite is the 21-minute version by Rare Earth.
And the ultimate, all-time feel-good song:
Good Lovin’ by the Young Rascals.
For some reason music could NEVER change the mood I’m in. I usually listen to music that reflects my mood. I listen to these songs when I’m feeling bouncy.

Megalomaniac -KMFDM
I Miss You -Bjork
