Down in the dumps? Are you wallowing in unsightly circumstances. One of the fastest ways to change your mood is to listen to music.
Now, I’m not talking about slow melancholy grooves or unrelenting tales of adultery or revenge. While, these songs are often brilliant they may not necessarily lift your mood.
Gravitate toward positive tunes when looking to enhance your attitude.
Here are a few popular songs currently in rotation that we think are also great at getting you to see the brighter side of life:
Meghan Trainor – “All About That Bass”
You can’t help moving when “All About That Bass” comes on. Even the video is super-cute. Besides with a great message like self-love how can you go wrong?
Clean Bandit feat. Jess Glynne – “Rather Be”
Rejoice in the fact that there are still people (family, friends, etc.) that care about you. Recall the good times and how it feels to be with them. Truly when you are together there is no place you’d “Rather Be.”
Ariana Grande – “Break Free”
Are circumstances keeping you from living your life to its fullest? It may be time to try something new, or as Ariana Grande puts it “Break Free.”
Nico & Vinz – “Am I Wrong”
Do your goals appear unachievable? If you find yourself trying to reach goals that you can’t see. Then “Am I Wrong” is for you. And no, you’re not wrong. Never be afraid to dream, and the bigger the dream the better.
Fall Out Boy – “Centuries”
When striving for a goal there will always be naysayers. You can’t let them stop you. Listen to Fall Out Boy’s “Centuries” just once and you’ll feel like you could do just about anything!
Taylor Swift – “Shake It Off”
Having your name scandalized is never fun, but take Taylor Swift’s advice and “Shake It Off.” What a great song! The video is a booty shaking, roller coaster of fun. And when you feel like a stick in the mud, “fun” is just what the doctor ordered. Don’t over think it…just shake!
Pharrell Williams – “Happy”
Pharrell’s hit single has to be the happiest song EVER! I mean it’s called “Happy” for good reason. As soon as the beat drops you start smiling and your mood changes. Not to mention uplifting lyrics like, “Here comes bad news talking this and that. Give me all you got, and don’t hold it back. Well, I should probably warn you I’ll be just fine. No offense to you, don’t waste your time…”
Carrie Underwood – “Something in the Water”
Looking for something spiritual to combat the pressures of the world. Well, Carrie Underwood’s “Something in the Water” is a beautiful testimony of faith and courage.
Katy Perry – “This Is How We Do”
Want to just “let go.” Then Katy Perry’s “This Is How We Do” is the perfect number for you. Cast your worries aside. As the song says, “It’s no big deal.” Tomorrow will be a better day.
The Script – “Superheroes”
The song says, “Everyday, every hour, turn your pain into power.” We agree. The struggles of life are what make you stronger. Your battles will teach you to fly!
