I've been having a bit of a rough time lately. So, naturally, I turn to various forms of entertainment and friends to get me into a better frame of mind. But you can't always hang out with friends - they've go things to do a swell, after all - and things like playing games, reading books, and watching TV or movies are not entirely viable options if you are, say, doing homework. Or driving.
At least, I hope you're not doing that while you're driving.
Anyways, there's still one common option left when those are taken out of the equation: music. There are always a few songs that can get me out of a funk, however briefly, and I love them for it.
My first choice is usually 'Vagabonds,' by the Classic Crime. The whole song is basically a love letter to my hometown, and the tune is generally so upbeat I can always count on them to give me a smile.
Also, because I live in western Washington of the U.S., and am also weird in several other ways, this song also manages to make me grin, though for shamefully ironic reasons.
So. How about you guys? What songs and music in general puts a smile on your face and a spring in your step?
