Miserable mood averted.

Time for an update
Today I was moody. In a big way.
University rejection, slight pancake hangover.
However, there is a solution, which I feel I should share.
My ultimate dont be miserable playlist.
here ya are:
Oh! You Pretty Things- David Bowie
If nothing else works, let David Bowie tell you you are pretty. No young person should listen to this without feeling a little guilty. We have youth! And beauty! And style! Don’t be miserable!
Monkey Man- The Specials
I cannot be miserable listening to this, to me it is nightclubs late at night, pestering the DJ for this song. I have never got it played for me yet. It’s solidarity and friendship and above all, nights out and bad experiences with bouncers. Bad days need reminding of these things.
You- Gold Panda
Songs with no words are just what bad days sometimes cry out for. Something like the works of my much beloved Morrissey just would not work. The tragic lyrics just don’t help a bad situation. If one needs to indulge, which sometimes has been earnt, and utterly give in to miserability, have a big cry, that sort of thing, Morrissey is perfect. But this Lo-fi work of nonsense, babbling over a pleasant tone, just works. Instant pick me up. Good driving song too.
Inbetween Days- The Cure
Of course, all bad days come with an element of self pity. It’s only right. So although this is an utterly miserable song, the message Robert Smith moans is vital, ‘Go on Go on just walk away’ which we must do on bad days. Walk away. Pretend it’s tomorrow.
Two Shoes- The Cat Empire
Noone does miserability like the Europeans. For moping around, look to Parisian artisans, utterly miserable. This has beautiful French accents as well as sulky tones, despite the trumpets , it just sounds like Burgundy velvet to me. Remember, you have two shoes, and they are for dancing, not dragging.
