Colgando En Tus Manos - Carlos Baute and Marta Sanchez

I guess it's because it reminds me of being in Spain, which is far away from the people who cause my problems. And I just love the song.

Not necessarily 'happy' songs in the sense that they're celebrating anything, but rather optimistic songs that have the message of 'don't feel down, put your chin up', are the songs that make me happy. They include "Breathe" by Lucie Silvas, and "Solace Of You", by Living Colour. And yes, both those songs are more or less about romantic relationships even though I've been single for quite some time, but still, they cheer me up.

Anything fast and energetic always cheers me up. So like anything by AC/DC or Guns N Roses, etc.

Coldplay - In my Place
The Smiths - Vicar in a Tutu (just silly...but fun)
Peter Gabriel - (don't know the name, but it has 'don't stop, cause you have friends)
Rancid - (don't know the name, but it has 'black coat, white shoes, cadillac, the kid's a time bomb')
All Star - by some 90s band. It's in Shrek, if that's a help
