Damien mentioned in his recent BBC Radio Leeds interview that his warm up song for 'Travelling Light' is Hall and Oates 'You Make My Dreams', it helps get him into a happier zone for his character Motl.
For my sins, I like Cher, something like """Believe"""" perfect for when I went through my divorce!! :D some might say it is sad, but IMO it is positive song & a pick me up! (sorry don't know how to embed the video)

Probably 'Smooth' by Santana and Rob Thomas. It was hearing his voice that switched me on to Matchbox Twenty who are one of my all time favourite bands. 'Smooth' just puts me in such a good mood.
Hi HalGal, I edited your post to embed the vid! if you go to edit your own post now, you will see how i did it. Thanks, you have made me realise I need to do a 'How To Post A Video' guide on the forum!
Cher is such a diva of the power ballad! Music is so amazing, it reaches parts that other arts don't reach I am glad you found something cathartic to help you through a difficult time *hugs*
Ruby I am feeling the santana Rob Thomas SMOOOOOOTH!
It is a laid back kind of uplift! I have been listening to JJ Cale today (said I was an old hippy) His album Troubador is the ultimate chill out / easy / up vibe album..alway makes me feel blissed out..and how could this song in particular not get a mention!
I get the feeling that most peeps here may think pop and mainstream dance music is deeply uncool, but I love some of it..I am not fixated with any particular genre and have pretty eclectic tastes as long as it is GOOD and makes me feel something. I used to be a raver back in the day when house /acid house was first coming to the uk, and although i prefer more underground stuff, and stuff with a bit more bass to it, I think what David Guetta has done bringing house to the mainstream is pretty sensational, and that kind of crossover thing. You have to admire the guy and he has been doing it since the underground days too!
I would have to say that my "feel good" song would have to be.... Don't laugh at me for this one it's a bit silly... New Shoes by Paolo Nutini I just makes me feel so happy!! I will post a video when I get to the computer!

Thanks for posting the King Charles vids Becca, yes you did upload them correctly, well done! Is it wrong of me to say I love the videos as much as the music?
Sami, ... great choice, that song also has a really easy going feel to it, the kind of song that gives you a real laid back happy feeling..the kind of stuff I like to listen to if my nerves feel frazzled!
