OT: Favorite Feel Good Song

[Frodo]

There are lots, but this is one of them.

The second is from Mark Knopfler, who is my favorite performer, hands down. It is a story more than a song, a description of the demise of the part of England where he grew up. The particulars are different (we never had coal mines in New England), but anyone who watched Hartford, or Holyoke or Lowell or Springfield fall into ruin will appreciate this song. It does not make me feel good. It makes me feel alive.

If you'd like Knopfler songs that are "feelgood," just ask. I've got a bunch.

I love Dire Straits, and Knopfler. Good song (5:15), but not sure a song about a murder makes me feel good?? Thanks though.

[Zorro]

Lordy, lordy! All these nominations and no Dylan, no Beatles, no Stones! And a whole bunch of folks I never heard of. Makes me feel my age! Ok, here is my nomiation for the greatest feel-good song;


Or else Bach's Six Suites for Solo Cello by Rostropovich. Toss up.

 

[Aluminny69]

I dare anyone to listen to either of these two songs, and NOT feel good...

 

[wire chief]

How can you get more feel good then these lyrics? And zorro knows it too
