I suspect everyone has many go-to songs to help lighten the load.
I thought of this because I just heard Petula Clark's Downtown and felt happier.

Love - ¡Que Vida! (despite, or perhaps because of, the inane lyric)
The Fat Boys - One Billion Is Big ("One million's not even one percent of one billion! Wow!")
Not a song, but "Synchronising" from Michael Nyman's "Water Dances" makes me think of a how a dog must feel on a car ride once it knows the destination is the nearest park.

Never! Who can resist "Oh, chitty, you chitty, pretty chitty bang bang" and "our fine four-fendered friend"? Originally Posted by my little pony

Any of my favourite dancing songs -- too many to list, but "Walking on Sunshine," "Come Dancing," and "Footloose" are at the top.
But listening to blues can do the trick too. That was part of the point of the blues in the first place -- hearing other peoples problems makes you feel better about your own.
Or pretty much just listening to any good song, period. This morning "Both Sides Now" (the original) came on the radio because it's Joni Mitchell's 69th birthday, starting just as I pulled in to the office garage. I was a few minutes late for work because I had to stay in the car and listen. (Good excuse, right?)
Or playing just about any music will do it too. I'm feeling a little big headachy and a lot tired ... but I know all that will change as soon as band practice starts tonight.
