    Wheather or not you suffer from legitimate depression or are just feelin in a shitty mood, music has always helped many get through some rough times.

    What are some songs/artists that you like to listen to for lightening up the mood?

    One that i like is "Soulshine" by Warren Haynes
    also anything with Susan Tedeschi singing.

    Gotta Move

    Id like to hear some of your guys' choices.

    wow, there's a lot i could potentially put here. most of the music i listen to generally leans toward being happy, or uplifting. so anyways, here's what i listen to to brighten the mood:

    Creeping Weeds
    Brainstorm [Latvian, not the German band]
    Circus Maximus [Norwegian metal band (as well as the psych band)]
    The Elms
    Justice
    Moe.
    Time In Malta
    Newcleus

    and hell, even Trepalium.

    There are specific songs that have helped me through the rough patches (I suffer from anxiety).

    Some of the best:
    Ooh, Child (Phish cover!)
    Across The Universe ("Nothing's gonna change my world" is really helpful), The Beatles
    Touch of Grey, Grateful Dead
