custom55 Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 Led Zeppelin - The Ocean ( Singing about the good things and the sun that lights the day ) Allman Brothers Band - Ain't Wastin' Time No More ( great vibe to the song and it makes me happy ) The Beatles - When I'm Sixty-Four ( ** because I am !!! ) The Who - Bargain ( Townshend's guitar makes me smile ) CSN&Y - Marrakesh Express ( love the vibe and lyrics ) 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnnyBlaze Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 My immediate thoughts... Bob Marley & the Wailers : Three Little Birds The Beach Boys: Good Vibrations Bob Dylan: The Times They Are a-Changin’ Great thoughts! Wouldn't know where to start with Bob M or the Beach Boys, so many ups... IMHO you can’t really go wrong with anything from Bob Marley & the Wailers. I don’t have all of his stuff (maybe 70%) yet but I have heard it all through a past flatmate. These days “Exodus” is his best for me but like Rush, my favorite occasionally changes. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was tempted to be a completist years later with all the albums but stopped there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rutlefan Posted November 13, 2019 Share Posted November 13, 2019 Of the many pick-me-up songs I could choose, the one that really works for me is...XTC -- We're All Light Apple Venus Vols I&II was my go-to music in 2000/2001. I remember driving on a beautiful summer day blasting it thinking that it is the perfect music for a care-free summer day. I still think that and We're All Light has always been my particular favorite. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rutlefan Posted November 14, 2019 Share Posted November 14, 2019 Nova Carmina: "The Call -- Let the Day Begin (I literally listen to this song every day)" Excellent choice! Funny, in a nearby conference room an AV guy was setting things up this morning, playing The Call's "When the Walls Came Down" at a surprisingly loud volume (not that I minded). That was a good pick me up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lorraine Posted November 16, 2019 Author Share Posted November 16, 2019 I don't think Sting meant this song to be taken seriously, at least I hope not, because it always makes me laugh. I Can't Stand Losing You Who hasn't gotten upset when they got back albums loaned out scratched???? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
