Buffista Music III: The Search for Bach
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.
"Indestructible" - Rancid
It's a bit counter-intuitive, but MCR's "I'm Not OK" helps me rally when I'm beat.
Something about singing "I'm NOT OK" over and over again kind of helps my brain move past that fact. And its peppy.
I understand Trudy. Peppy death songs cheer me immeasurably.

"Mary Ellen Carter" - Stan Rogers "Across the Universe" - my favorite version is Noel Bridgeman live on the Mary Black double album
Both have made me fight on.
Tep, from a while back (I can never keep up these days)
They reviewed it the other day, and it sounds really good, in an old-school soul way, a la Amy Winehouse (ish).
You might like Duffy. Very neo-60s soul. [link]

Rolling Stones - "Gimme Shelter"

Thanks you guys! This is really helpful.
I recommend...."Fight Song" by Flaming Lips.
Also, "I Won't Back Down" by Tom Petty.

As have I!
