Bop boppity bop :)

It's been a long day and I am SO not in the mood to study. Trying to procrastinate, I made my way back onto my pc - as usual - and dipped into my (admittedly vast) music collection. Next thing I know, I'm happily bouncing up and down in my chair in an attempt to dance in my seat without pulling my earphones from the laptop socket. Isn't it amazing how music can change your mood in an instant?? :D In the interests of cheering up what few readers/followers this blog has - and so that I have a further excuse to study - I am compiling a list as I type of what songs I find best to listen to when in certain moods. If you don't like them...your problem, not mine. :)

When you feel like rocking out (the punky stuff - I don't like heavy rock)
He Wasn't - Avril Lavigne (girly punk!)
Teenagers - My Chemical Romance (perfect for headbanging)
American Idiot - Green Day
I Want You to Want Me - Letters to Cleo
Girls Don't Like Boys - Good Charlotte
Oxymoron - Zebra and Giraffe

When you want to laugh
It's Just Porn, Mom - The Trucks (it really is brilliant)
Elmo's Got a Gun - Bob and Tom
Anything by Weird Al Yankovich, if your tastes swing that way
The Kids - Eminem and the South Park kids

When you're in love
I Can Hear the Bells - Nikki Blonsky (yes it is from Hairspray. Don't judge me...)
Underneath Your Clothes - Shakira
Lucky - Jason Mraz
Marry Me - Train
Falling Down  -Thus Far

When you're broken-hearted
No Suprise - Daughtry
I Need a Hero - Jennifer Saunders
I Don't Love You - My Chemical Romance
Fall to Pieces - Avril Lavigne
F*ck You - Cee Lo Green ft 50 Cent (especially when you're drunk!)

When you want to be put in a good mood (this is a looong list!)
The General - Dispatch
Stay the Night - James Blunt
The Bird and the Worm - Owl City (<-- this is the ULTIMATE happy song)
Into Yesterday - Sugar Ray (epic surfer-type song!)
Walking on Sunshine - Ali & AJ
Mrs Robinson - Simon and Garfunkel
Big Girls - Mika (well it puts ME in a good mood anyway).

Best songs to sing to
Billy - James Blunt
Anything by the Beatles. Especially Yellow Submarine.
Someone Like You - Adele
Buttercup - Mean Mr Mustard
I Believe in a Thing Called Love - The Darkness (belt out those high notes!)

I was going to add a list of music that I think is good to party to, but I'd end up posting my entire dance playlist. And that's a lot of song names to type out. So I shall end off now. But if you don't know any of the above songs, do yourself a favour and check them out. They're all pretty amazing and definitely worth a listen :D The usual amusing blog posts shall return as soon as I have had enough of headbanging around my room. With my curtains closed. I mean, people think I'm weird enough as it is...
