    I've used this one mostly for break-ups, but it has also been used during jaded business relationships.

    Anyone else have a go-to song in these situations?



    EDIT: It was between this and "Dude looks like a Lady."

    A bit of NSFW lyrics, but this song is amazing, as is all Atreyu's early stuff.

    Nothing like a song like this to pick you up in the gym. Or just when you're feeling down in general.

    Why don't we ever say that something is "plenished" in the first place?

    After 34 years, I now know the name of that band and song. Cheers.

    You nailed it with Back in the Saddle Again

    I’m also a big fan of Pimp Juice by Nelly

    When I was but a wee little ottomaton, this one used to cheer me up when I was feeling down, mostly by turning depression into rage.

    Also, back in the 90's this had a brief moment as the most cathartic uplifting song in the universe:



    So I guess maybe if you want retro-"pick your self up". Still gives me nice warm nostalgia feels.

    Actually a lot of late 90's pop was sort of anti-grunge happy. Looking at you, Smashmouth.

    Now that I'm a lot older and maybe not so angry, this one always cheers me up.
