"AC/DC Bag" from IT does it especially well... "let's get this show on the road!" |

You could be in the worst mood of your life and listening to this song all the way through will leave you without a worry in the whole world.
As for songs that put you in a good mood, ya just gotta go with what you grew up with. For me it's Ska/Punk, mainly bands such as the Suicide Machines(name is rather ironic ><), Goldfinger, Operation Ivy, Catch 22, etc. |

Rush is so upbeat (to me, anyways! ^^) and fast-moving it's hard not to groove along (or attempt to  ), and reggae is totally cool, mon. |
