happy music
So a lot is going on all at once right now -- my sweetheart has major surgery tomorrow! I just started a new job! and ... probably some other things, but the confluence of these two events, and particularly everything about the former one, is enough to be going on with -- and I could really do with a pick-me-up.
Specifically: music! Rec me happy songs? Songs that cheer you up, make you walk with purpose when you listen to them, make you smile? I really want to make a playlist to listen to on loop to get through things, but off the top of my head I only have two songs. (For the curious: Surface of the Sun by the Hugh Dillon Redemption Choir; Starships by Nikki Minaj. The first one is and has been a comfort to me for at least three years, and the second is just full of joy and SPACESHIPS.) So yes! I would love all your musical recommendations -- just title and artist is fine, I can track them down myself via YouTube/iTunes/&c.

I think we have too much iTunes library overlap for me to recommend most of the things I immediately thought of. Do you listen to La Roux? If not, LA ROUX.

LA ROUX YES EXCELLENT. And tbh iTunes overlap should not be an impediment to you making recommendations -- you may just be better at immediately thinking of good songs than I am! So any additional ideas quite welcome.

Will always recommend Marina & the Diamonds for aggressive defiance of all life things. Also, My Chem (most of Danger Days or fast songs from The Black Parade, depending on your mood).
