Listening to music is something so simple yet so affective of our moods. It's crazy how listening to one good song on a bad day can turn our moods around almost instantly. With that being said, here are some songs that are perfect for any mood; whether it be a mellow song, an upbeat song, or a song with a lot of meaning behind it, these old songs will always be my go-tos.
1. Daydream Believer- The Monkees
Whenever I'm in a bad mood (AKA whenever I have to leave my bed), this song gets me ready to take on the day. How couldn't your mood be boosted after hearing this song?
2. Crazy- Gnarles Barkley
Maybe it's CeeLo Green's voice or maybe it's the catchy backyard music, but this song will instantly make you dance in your seat.
3. Money- Pink Floyd
There's no explanation needed for this. Pink Floyd causes euphoria.
4. Happy Together- The Turtles
This romantic song is an instant uplifter. Even if you're not in a relationship, something about this song can instantly bring a smile to your face.
5. Mr. Tambourine Man- The Byrds
Beautiful... just beautiful.
6. My Sweet Lord- George Harrison
The Beatles member is arguably deemed the most talented out of them all. Again, this is a good song to listen to in the morning.
7. Why Does My Heart Feel So Bad? -Moby
The piano in this song is truly amazing. Maybe I'm just biased because I listened to this song growing up but this song is meant to be played on repeat 100 times through.
8. Dosed- The Red Hot Chili Peppers
Of course I had to add RHCP into the mix. Although this song is emotional and pulls on the heart strings, there's nothing not to love about it.
These songs are all classics; and with good reason. There was a lot of talent back in the day that should still gain some recognition among this generation. Give these songs a listen, and your perspective on music will change.
