13 Songs To Help Pump Or Cheer You Up
Siddharth Bhogra

Sometimes there are days when you just need a pick-me-up to make it through the day. For some people coffee is the go-to for an off-day, others will stay inside, but for me it's music. Whenever I just need to make it through the day, I put on the songs that make me want to hold my head up high, to dance around in my room by myself, and some just plain weird. Here is a list of some of the best cheer me up songs.

1. "Lonely Town"

Despite the name, this song is a dance song by Brandon Flowers, with an old feel to it. The music video consists of a cassette player that a girl home alone uses to listen and dance around. The song came out in 2015 but it's still a favorite a mine for dancing around in my dorm when no one's there.

2. "Sorry Not Sorry"

This song by Demi Lovato is the song everyone needs. Not only does it have a great beat but it also has a good message, cause hey guess what I'm not sorry for being me.

3. "Margaritaville"

Jimmy Buffet (man on the left) makes what can best be described as beach music but for whatever reason, I love this song. This song is just a fun song that always makes me feel like I am on vacation on a beach somewhere.

4. "I'll Find You"

This song is by Lecrae featuring Tori Kelly, but it's one of those songs that is just saying I need a little help but I'm getting there. It always helps me get through the day, while also having a good beat with great lyrics.

5. "Glorious"

If you can't already tell, this one is by Macklemore featuring Skylar Grey. I would highly recommend watching the music video as it stars him and his grandma on her birthday. Macklemore takes his grandma everywhere she wants to go for the day.

6. "Ain't No Mountain High Enough"

This one is fairly obvious and of course it's by the amazing Marvin Gaye. It's a classic and should be on everybody's feel-good song list.

7. "Home"

This song is a new one, that just recently came out for the movie 'Bright' but it's a song that I love listening to especially when I am homesick. This is a triple collaboration between Machine Gun Kelly, Bebe Rexha, and X Ambassadors.

8. "The Tide"

Although many people will be turned away by the fact it's a song by Niall Horan, the lyrics are him asking you 'not to let the tide come take me[him]". I think everyone can relate to it and despite the lyrics, it isn't a slow song.

9. "Dying For You"

This song despite its title is actually very much a dance song. It's by an artist known as Otto Knows featuring the famous YouTube violinist Lindsey Stirling.

10. "Holding On To You"

Being a Twenty One Pilots song, it is a little weird. Despite its strange beat the lyrics and vibe you get from this song can't be denied. It's a great pump-up song.

11. "Thank You"

Just an old popular song by MKTO, which is basically saying hey the world's screwed up and the older generation is at fault.

12. "Hell on Heels"

This is a definite girl power song by the Pistol Annies, but I highly recommend listening to it if you need an empowerment song.

13. "I'll Make a Man Out of You"

Of course, we all need a little Disney too. Mulan's "I'll Make a Man out of You" is the perfect feel good song, or pump-up song. I don't know one person who can resist belting these lyrics out as loud as possible.

I hope that this list has given you a few ideas for future reference. I also hope that if your having a bad day, or just need some good feeling music that this was a help.

The Norse Creation Myth

Now, I have the everlasting joy of explaining the Norse creation myth. To be honest, it can be a bit kooky, so talking about it is always fun. The entire cosmos is included in this creation myth, not just the earth but the sun and the moon as well. This will be a short retelling, a summary of the creation myth, somewhat like I did with Hermod's ride to Hel.
