For me? Probably “Top of the World” by the Carpenters. Karen’s voice is like a warm blanket.

11

Not sure that a song about nuclear apocalypse is the ultimate feel good song.

I still like it though. :slight_smile:

I like to go old fashion here:

Joy to the World (Jeremiah was a Bullfrog.)

12

As with so many musical questions, the correct answer is, of course, Louie Louie by The Kingsmen.

13

Mr. Bojangles, especially this version:

14

wouldn’t it be

Don’t Worry, Be Happy

15

Seconded. This was my first thought when I read the thread title.

16

Obviously, “I Feel Good” by James Brown. :smiley:

17

I Can See Clearly Now by Jimmy Cliff. What a happy, uplifting, pleasant song. :slight_smile:

18

Pretenders - Don’t Get Me Wrong

19

First song to come to mind: Good Day Sunshine.

Those are hard to beat - two of my favorite songs.

I also like Everlasting Love with Carl Carlton.
