What are some good, CURRENT, upbeat songs?

Asked by gelifly (11points) June 2nd, 2009

It’s for a presentation. I want people to feel good when they walk in the room and hear the song.

For what generation? There will be a huge difference in what a Baby-Boomer finds uplifting and what a teenager would like.

I like this song- it’s upbeat, but more like a good driving song as opposed to, say, a workout song.
