    What's in everyone's playlist when they start to reach a low point in the day or get bummed out about something/ thinking it's too big of a deal to go on/ blah blah?

    Mine lately

    1. Brandy - Fall
    2. Brandy - Right Here
    3. Chris Brown - Down
    4. Simple Plan - Save You
    5. Tyga - Coconut Juice

    Yeah yeah, I know I lose man points for the first two. Blow me :cool:.

    Trying to find a couple more of them for a motivational/pick yourself up by the bootstraps CD. Preferably hip-hop, pop type songs like the above but whatever ya got that helps you get going again / feel like things aren't that hopeless.

    Thanks for the replies so far :).

    Anyone a fan of Fatboy Slim? His music seems pretty uplifting/catchy.

    Anything by Manowar!

    I don't know how anyone can listen to their stuff without getting a big grin on his/her face.

    True metal forever!

    Twisted Sister - We're not gonna take it



    If a chick rejects you..

    Axl is nuts. His rejection, breakup songs are always hilarious.

    Iggy Pop & the Stooges - Search & Destroy

    I like to go to loud music to cheer me up.

    Tool - Cold & Ugly

    35 second mark with the guitar gets me.

    Mudhoney

    Another loud one I like.

    NIN - Wish

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=68KxXeeHXHk

    He's not exactly cheerful, but his self deprecation and good beats cheer me up. Also I really like the beginning. Get past the angst part and you won't feel like a 16 year rebel against parents.

    Nothing is as metal, as a song or group that talks strictly about metal all the time.
    kinda good, or sad, that I knew what these videos were just by the still images :)
