The most life affirming song of all time

[Dr Syntax Head]

2019 I lost everything. Divorce. Lost my best friend, my music and my entire sense of self. But this song above the into the wild soundtrack (my go to get myself together album) kept me alive

"Ordinary Joe" by Terry Callier. Defy anyone to sit through that and not be in a better mood by the time it's finished.

[SpiderChrist]

"Boy About Town" by The Jam

[jobotic]

Two that spring to mind are "Here He Comes" and "I'll Come Running (to Tie Your Shoe)" by Brian Eno.

[Norton Canes]

Look, I'm not afraid to go literal

2112 by Rush I suppose.

Just love the ecstatic release in the outro after the hoping and frustration of the song.

[Inspector Norse]

Probably this, in that it is just an extraordinary explosion of joy:

Roddy Woomble's 'A New Day Has Begun' is a wonderful reset-button of a track for me, just a beautiful four minutes of 'enjoying being in the moment' music that reminds me that life is actually quite wonderful. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cM9h1vL62FU

XTC's 'Wrapped in Grey' is another, a beautifully orchestrated song and a call to arms to celebrate life. "Don't let the loveless ones sell you a world wrapped in grey". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P9OZ_5lnzB8

Orbital's 'Belfast' is a comfort blanket. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FqTpuoypr-U
