Anything by Paramore. Ignorance is a great ANGRY song

Lady GaGa too. Anything by her. Happy, upbeat stuff.
Sometimes though, if I'm down I listen to sad music...probably not such a good idea. But it makes me cry, which helps in a way. So, Faces In Disguse by Sunny Day Real Estate, Misguided Ghosts by Paramore, Breakeven by The Script also.

Any thing by The Killers for something up beat but if I need to cry then I'd go for My Chemical Romance, Glasvegas or Coldplay.

I sometimes find a good blast of The Stranglers gives me a nice 'f*ck the lot of 'em' feeling to lift me out of the trough.

Strangely, slow ballady songs cheer me up. Something like 'Someday' by embrace

This, definately:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FSbGur1dz9k

The lyrics to that are just so, well, apt. I guarentee anyone who is feeling down, if you listen to that song, and to the lyrics especially, you are bound to come out feeling better. It's helped me many a time, believe me. It's the song I always turn to in the hardest of times.

Bittersweet Symphony by The Verve and Champagne Supernova by Oasis are my other two.

Songbird - Oasis.

I cannot listen to even the opening bars without smiling. Brilliant to drive to as well.

One Day Like This by Elbow. Never have I found a song more optimistic and uplifting.

I like Riot and All We Know Is Falling too - I think Hayley was exeptional vocals - I think Brand New Eyes has some of the best tunes on it. I've not been on for that long - I lurked in reading everyone's posts for a long time before I joined!

Yeah, she has an amazing voice. I'd love to sing like her. She never fails to amaze me. I love all of their music, though I didn't take notice of them until RIOT, but checked out All We Know.. afterwards. Missed out on getting tickets for their recent Brighton show, I was absolutely gutted!! Have you heard their acoustic live version of decode they did for a US radio station? Hayley sounds brilliant, despite being sick at the time:

Yeah I've seen that it's really good . I missed out on Manchester tickets too so I can't wait for them to come back (I hope!).

They did a song with Jimmy Eat World with part's of their Miracle, and JEW's The Middle in - have you heard that?

Strange. Don't really know what to make of it. Though I like the songs individually. I'm hoping they tour again next year.
