"Positive Tunes"

With so much talk of economic meltdown, swine flu, unemployment and all things doom and gloom going on in the world at the moment, I thought I would share with you my top 15 “Positive Tunes”. This is a playlist I set up on my I-Tunes to play when things aren’t going too well or I am feeling particularly down for whatever reason. It’s a rather random collection by any stretch of the imagination, and features music from a surprising amount of British Indie bands, a genre I wouldn’t describe myself as a huge fan of. There’s some dance, a bit of rock, and even a rather cheesy song by the man convicted of beating up Rihanna. So listen to them, download them, or just wonder why on earth I picked them! They are in no particular order of preference.

1) Acquiesce - Oasis

2) Generator - The Holloways

3) Whatever - Oasis

4) Away From Here - The Enemy

5) No Matter What - Mistabishi

6) Shiver – Coldplay

7) Fly Away - Lenny Kravitz

8) Forever - Conquest

9) Midnight In A Perfect World – DJ Shadow

10) We Made It – Linkin Park

11) Get Ready – The Temptations

12) Forever – Chris Brown

13) Death Of Auto-Tune – Jay Z

14) Touch The Sky - Kanye West

15) I Remember – Deadmau5

  1. This is such a predictable response coming from me, but another perfect addition lyric wise would be "Survivin'" by The Sunburst Band from their most recent album.

    I know, I've mentioned it many times but it matches things perfectly.

    Otherwise the rest of the list is spot on, especially the Holloways.

  2. This a great list. The Holloways mention is definately spot on, as is Kanye West 'Touch the Sky', that always makes me feel great.

    I have a playlist similiar to that on my Ipod, which I may too post! x
