I'm trying to get a compilation together. Genre is not important as much as an upbeat-like feeling. No classicals or sweeping movie soundtracks. I'm just looking for a collection of songs that the tune and the beat alone is all i need to put me in a better mood.

Here's examples of what I've got so far:

  • Green Onions - Booker T
  • Rock N Roll, Part 2 ("Hey") - Gary Glitter
  • Flying - The Beatles
  • Moby Dick - Led Zeppelin
  • Miserlou - Dick Dale
  • Pick Up The Pieces - Average White Band
  • Jessica - Allman Bros Band
  • Cissy Strut - The Meters
  • Tequila - The Champs
  • Weapon Of Choice - Fat Boy Slim
  • Rebel Rouser - Duane Eddy
  • Frankenstein - Edgar Winter Group

 

A lot might be recognizable from Quentin Tarantino soundtracks. :)

 

 

 

Backstory, if you care to read on: I have a good buddy that has been in a relationship with the wrong person for entirely too long. And not only have I had to be there so she can cry on my shoulder, she would get so worked up after one of their fights that she COULD NOT LISTEN TO THE RADIO BECAUSE ALL THE LOVE LYRICS reminded her.

I like the half an hour untitled Queen song on Made In Heaven. I also like Earn While You Learn by Elton John. It may take awhile to find the second song since it was only a single. One Of These Days and Atom Heart Mother by Pink Floyd are very good.
