So many to choose from Scott...But I always liked.

The Beach Boys...California Girls
Thin Lizzy ...Whiskey In the Jar

and funny enough ..........Here comes the Summer Sun....Texas.


But then I'M an old git.;)

When you're down and troubled
and you need a helping hand
and nothing, whoa nothing is going right.
Close your eyes and think of me
and soon I will be there
to brighten up even your darkest nights.

You just call out my name,
and you know whereever I am
I'll come running, oh yeah baby
to see you again.
Winter, spring, summer, or fall,
all you have to do is call
and I'll be there, yeah, yeah, yeah.
You've got a friend.

If the sky above you
should turn dark and full of clouds
and that old north wind should begin to blow
Keep your head together and call my name out loud
and soon I will be knocking upon your door.
You just call out my name and you know where ever I am
I'll come running to see you again.
Winter, spring, summer or fall
all you got to do is call
and I'll be there, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Hey, ain't it good to know that you've got a friend?
People can be so cold.
They'll hurt you and desert you.
Well they'll take your soul if you let them.
Oh yeah, but don't you let them.

You just call out my name and you know wherever I am
I'll come running to see you again.
Oh babe, don't you know that,
Winter spring summer or fall,
Hey now, all you've got to do is call.
Lord, I'll be there, yes I will.
You've got a friend.
You've got a friend.
Ain't it good to know you've got a friend.
Ain't it good to know you've got a friend.
You've got a friend.

all i can think of with that song now is the f**king AA!

 

[Groyne Strain]

The ones I go for are somewhat naff but have an air of defiance.

Elton John's 'I'm Still Standing'

and

That group who chucked a bucket of water of John Prescott that done 'Tubthumping'

I suppose it's a subliminal "f**k the lot of you, you ain't keeping me down you b*stards".

 

[Eastwood10]

Today by the Smashing Pumpkins always puts a smile on my face.
