"Have you heard the news that you're dead?
No one ever had much nice to say
I think they never liked you anyway
Oh take me from the hospital bed
Wouldn't it be grand? It ain't exactly what you planned.
And wouldn't it be great If we were dead?
Ohh dead."
This is the chorus from Dead! by My Chemical Romance. It's a great song, from an equally great album, but it's hardly chirpy, is it? Now, I'm not saying we should all throw away our MCR albums (i certainly couldn't), and start listening to Cher Lloyd or Tinie Tempah (God forbid!), but I do think that everybody needs a few happy songs, inamongst the sad, angry ones! So, i've compiled a list of positive, upbeat, but still halfway decent songs:
If You Haven't Got Anything To Say - Luke Leighfield
Roshambo - The Network
The Luckiest - Ben Folds
Mr. Brightside -The Killers
Dreaming Of You - The Coral
Chelsea Dagger - The Fratellis
Friday I'm In Love - The Cure
Teenage Dirtbag - Wheatus
Friday Is Forever - We The Kings
Star Song - Bowling For Soup
1234 - Plain White T's
The No No Song - The Sounds
Adelaide - Ben Folds
Don't Stop Believin' - Journey
Surfin' USA - Beach Boys
Here is a playlist of all the songs:http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL86A1E5253140E7A5&feature=mh_lolz
And if you're still not convinced...then stick on some MCR!
