I know exactly what Eryn is talking about here. One of my favorite "pick-me-up" songs is "Ball And Chain" by Social Distortion, with such inspirational lyrics as: Well, I'll pass the bar on the way To my dingy hotel room I spent all my money Been drinkin' since half past noon I'll wake there in the mornin' Or maybe in the county jail Times are hard getting harder I'm born to lose and destined to fail When I play this song, I crank the volume, sing along and feel great. Psychoanalysts-in-training, chime in anytime. ;) Larry I in LA Adam K wrote (in mid-December!): > Also listed is Peter Gabriel's "Digging in the Dirt" -- feelgood?

I listed that song because it makes me feel good, regardless > of what the lyrics are saying. That beat just makes me wanna jam out. ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 12 Feb 2001 14:29:01 EST From: Doorag79@aol.com Subject: Re: MM: Love SongsNPC Just a couple that I haven't seen anyone put yet. - -"Dark End of the Street" - Flying Burrito Brothers(the best version I've heard of it, ever) - -"Everybody Here Wants You" - Jeff Buckley - -"16 Days" - Whiskeytown - -"$1000 Wedding" - Gram Parsons (depressing, yes, but love nonetheless) - -"The One That Got Away" - Blue Mountain - -"Love Theme" - Moby (no words, but who needs 'em when you're Moby?) - -"My Baby's Book", "Solid Gold" - The Real Kids - -"Remember the Mountain Bed" - Billy Bragg and Wilco - -"Shake Some Action" - Flamin' Groovies - -"Keep in Touch" - The Kinks (i think it's the kinks) - -"Thirteen" - Big Star - -"Linger" - Cranberries (don't mean to be obvious, but...)

I'm not a huge fan of all his stuff, but this one - from beautiful lyric to stunning strings orchestration - is near-perfect. - -CA ******* ******* ** "El teatro es la poesma que se levanta ** ** del libro y se hace humana." ** ** ** ** "Theatre is the poetry which rises ** ** from the page and is made human." ** ** ** ** --Federico Garcma Lorca ** ******* ******* _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com ------------------------------ End of mad-mission-digest V5 #43 ********************************
