So you're angry at the world, as sad as the little child who let go of his balloon, or just not feeling in a great mood? Well, you've came to the right place. Here you'll find a playlist of 17 songs in all genres, ranging from movie soundtrack favourites to throwbacks to mega scene kid trash, it's all here. There's a little bit of love for everyone.
1. "Can't Stop The Feeling" - Justin Timberlake
How can you not sing along or want to dance when this song comes on? It's all around happy and fantastic and I can't stop the feeling.
2. "Rocketships and Radios" - Nickasaur!
Back in, like, eighth grade, this song was totally my jam. The catchy beat, lyrics, and album art were enough to make any soft-scene kid's heart squish. I mean, do you not see the happy-face diamonds? Come on people, everyone in this galaxy just wants to you soar.
3. "Mr. Brightside" - The Killers
4. "Let It Go" - Idina Menzel
What's a happiness playlist without a little help from the happiest place on earth? Disney songs in general just give you that warm fuzzy feeling of happiness, but the one that has a place on this list is 'Let It Go.' Why? Frozen was fantastic and this song is a fan favourite all day, every day. It's sassy and it's fun. So just let it go, let it gooooo; can't hold it back anymoooooorrrrre.
5. "Fancy" - Iggy Azalea
Speaking of sass, how about a dose of 'Fancy?' You can't tell me you don't belt out the lyrics to this song when it comes on. You already know.
6. "Cha-Cha Slide" - Mr. C The Slide Man
7. "Bohemian Rhapsody" - Queen
A pure classic at its finest. Queen is legendary, as is this song. It's one of those classics that's just a sin to change before it's completely over.
8. "24k Magic" - Bruno Mars
If even my daddy jams out to this song, it needs to be on this list. Like really.
9. "The Rock Show" - Blink 182
Gotta throw the pop punk gods into the mix. Blink 182 made pop punk what it is today and I am forever grateful. This is just a feel good song about life and falling in love. What more can ya ask for?
10. "Float On" - Modest Mouse
Bad day? Super bummed? Drowning in life? Modest Mouse got you, they'll throw you that raft and help you float on, alright.
11. Pokemon Theme Song.
If you know me, you know Pokemon is love, Pokemon is life. But seriously, the theme song is one of those freaking awesome jams that you need to roll the windows down and blare it down the highway. If this can't put a smile on my face, nothing will.
12. "Bad Girls Club" - Falling in Reverse
Oh Ronnie Radke...lawd this song is crazy but catchy as hell. Seriously, Falling in Reverse is a post-hardcore band, but this song is fun and there are no screams (that I can think of...). You'll find it stuck in your head and discover you're just another victim of the bad girls club.
13. "Girlfriend" - Avril Lavigne
Let's face it, Avril was and still is a total badass. But the catchiest, funnest song of hers (in my opinion...) was 'Girlfriend.' Maybe you're crushing or just need a pick-me-up...don't be like "so, whatever..." This song is definitely a must-listen.
14. "Get Back Up Again" - Anna Kendrick
15. "All Star" - Smash Mouth
If you say you don't know this song, you're a liar. And if you hear "hey now" and don't instantly think "you're an all star," you're also lying.
16. "Fireflies" - Owl City
This cutesy song just has to be on the list. It has to be. Owl City in general is a pretty freaking happy band with pretty freaking cutesy lyrics and music videos. What more can you ask for when you're not feeling wonderful?
17. "Don't Stop Believing" - Journey
Finally, what is life without Journey? Honestly, between this song and 'Bohemian Rhapsody,' these are the two songs it is a cardinal sin to ever change without listening to it until the very end. If this song can't help you crack a smile, I'm at a loss and I have certainly failed you. But come on, it's Journey and a classic at that, don't stop believing.
