FabSwingers.com forum: Are there any pieces of music that always lift you up?

In response to another thread (which is a great one) I thought I'd combat the Tuesday blues (Bluesday) with this.

Is/are there any songs, pieces of music that just lift you or at least make you think 'ah well, lets crack on' ?

For me, Nightwish's Nemo. That piano intro let's me know that Tarja's operatic vocals are on the way!

Tarja's voice, maybe not uplifting as such but sleeping sun would be my favourite Nightwish song with Tarja

Piece of Sky by Barbara Striesand.

It's the finale of Yentl and the power of her vocals coupled with the kettle drum and orchestra has such a positive and joyful effect on me, I can't listen to in the car.

Some great songs listed already...

A few of my go-tos:

Feist - Inside & Out (there's something in the riff in the chorus that just hits me)

Roisin Murphy - Let me know

Soul II Soul - Keep on Movin'

Terrence Trent Darby - If you let me stay

This is one of those threads I could go on and on with, but I've bored out long enough!!
