A few days ago, we had a post asking about things that made people feel better about the world, and my answer was that I was listening to Stevie Wonder. This made me curious, what artists, songs, or albums can you not listen to without feeling at least a little better? I mentioned Stevie Wonder, but Earth, Wind, and Fire are also up there for me.
It's also very much bummer jams, but my Jeff Rosenstock playlist on random gives me life.
It's essentially all his music from Arrogant Sons of Bitches (very select here because he was a fucking idiot high school kid writing these songs that he refuses to play these days), to Bomb the Music Industry (which is the happiest sounding bummer jams ever), to his current solo stuff (which he's getting the recognition he deserves).
It's absolutely a lot of very sad songs, but the biggest thing I've learned from being a fan is that life's ok even when the bad things happen (BTMIs Stand there until you're sober is one of my favorite songs ever)
