Yes, but it's just Weather With You. :)

All the songs I know are technically from when I was younger, but I guess the earliest songs that used to make me jump about as a kid were by Michael Jackson - Bad, Speed Demon etc. and The Beatles.

Inbetween school and university though are the ones I remember best - Bomfunk MCs have been mentioned. The Connells - '74-'75 is great, Third Eye Blind - Semi-Charmed Life, Oasis - Fade Away, the little known Backaround by Elevator Suite... there's probably loads more. More recently, Golden Touch by Razorlight is just a great uplifting pop/rock song.

Edit for some other great tunes:
Fun Lovin' Criminals - Big Night Out
Joy Rider - Rush Hour
My Life Story - 12 Reasons Why I Love Her
Gigolo Aunts - Where I Find My Heaven
Mike Oldfield - Moonlight Shadow
Anything by Shed 7 ;) /pimp

You got the love - Candi Staton

I love the new video for that :)


My uplifting songs would all be classed as 80's cheese, any cliched 80's stuff that gets people singing along at the top of their lungs, thats probably one of my choices :)
 
Paul McCartney & Wings - Jet
Carly Simon - Mockingbird
Beautiful South - Rotterdam
Crash Test Dummies - MMMM MMMM MMMM MMMM

used to listen to all those albums in the wiv mah mommy. good times :)
 
Everything but the Girl - Missing

Reminds me of school and a particular girl I went out with then. Brings back good memories and cheers me up, even if the song isn't that cheery.

Edit: Some other tunes from back then.

Moloko - Bring it Back
Pete Heller's Big Love - Big Love
