What's the most uplifting track ever?
For me it has to be Orbital's One Perfect Sunrise. Their last track on their last album, and it is aural perfection.
Lisa Gerrard's vocal is beautiful, and the music is heavenly. As I close my eyes I have such wonderful images. It always takes me to a higher plane. |

R.E.M - Shiny Happy People haha. It's so cheesy and corny god...ya it's just stupidly hillariously funny and indeed a happy song. And just a personal preference but Mudhoney instantly make me happy no matter what track I listen to (except maybe Acetone).

Pet Shop Boys - Closer to Heaven (slow version) is incredible, especially the second half. I haven't heard the fast version so I'm interested if anyone else has!

Guiding Star by Cast.
The kind of song you hear once after not listening to it for years, then walk around with it stuck in your head for the next few days. Just love it, absolute pop perfection and my fave song of the Britpop era. |

I'll probably be the only one to choose it..... but you'd have to go a long way to find a more uplifting track than "Oh Happy Day" by The Edwin Hawkins Singers..... even if you aren't religious.
