The ultimate uplifting playlist

Today I bring to you my personal picks for the perfect uplifting playlist.

Whether you’re feeling a bit down right now or maybe you just want to groove to some upbeat tunes, this might just be the place for you.

I’ve chosen these songs either because their lyrics convey a positive, empowering message or because of their overall happy vibe.

So here goes. These are the 11 finest pick-you-ups I have to offer.

Everything Is Alright - Motion City Soundtrack

This is probably not the most common track to be found in a group with the happy songs. Nevertheless, I have always thought of the lyrics as being very reassuring. It’s like the singer is trying to convince himself “Tell me that you’re alright, that everything is alright” but at the same time I’m sold on it. Everything is indeed alright :)

One of Us - New Politics

“We will laugh about it all and we’ll celebrate the things we’ve done, the years to come, the good, the bad, the sweet, the sad.”One of Us represents friendship, love and unity. Probably my favourite tune by this awesome band, it gives off such a positive vibe and it makes me happy whenever I listen to it.

Home - Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros

This is basically a love song, but even if you don’t take into account the lyrics, the music is still so cheerful. It’s too bad the band hasn’t put out music since 2012 because the live version of Hometruly was an extraordinary experience, as you watch the 10 people on stage play a small part into the performance of this wonderful, wonderful masterpiece.

Don’t Stop Me Now - Queen

Who wouldn’t agree with me on this one?! This legendary anthem and its theatrical elements are bound to enchant the listener, and are also perfect to lift the mood of even the most miserable individual.

Walking On Sunshine - Katrina & The Waves

Most people have probably heard Walking On Sunshine even if they didn’t know who sang it. I enjoy it because it paints such a vivid picture with its upbeat rhythm and feel-good atmosphere.

Carry On - fun.

It might not be the most upbeat song out there, but it definitely relays such an optimistic and important message: “if you’re lost and alone, or you’re sinking like a stone, carry on”. Simple but pretty straightforward. Don’t ever give up, keep going.

You Can Count On Me - Trophy Eyes

You Can Count On Me deals with a touchy subject, as it reflects on the relationship between artists and fans, and how it’s gotten twisted under the influence of technology and the modern times. Overall, I get a sense of “despite how judgy you as a fan can be towards me, and how not okay with it I am, I’m still here for you” from the singer. I appreciate the honesty.

I Wanna Get Better - Bleachers

I’ve always loved how energetic most tracks by Bleachers are, despite their themes being heavy-hearted at times. I Wanna Get Better is not an exception. It still feels like it’s a happy song though.

The Greatest Show - Panic! At The Disco

I reckon The Greatest Show is only like the most grandiose tune of all times. It wasn’t even meant to be a Panic! song in the first place, but honestly it might as well have been. For me it’s a reminder of why I love them so much, it’s majestical and theatrical, just like the rest of their discography.

Pon de Replay - Rihanna

Now we’re throwing it way back with Rihanna’s first ever single. It’s a fast-paced song about dancing at a club while listening to some great music. Sometimes you just gotta keep it simple.

Harlem - New Politics

Ending it with a banger! Harlemby New Politics. Harlemis a memorable, energetic burst of fun pop-punk guitar riffs. So damn catchy, with a hook that will have you stuck on it for weeks.

So, what do you think of my selection? Are there any more you’d like to add to the list? Comment them down below!
