How about “songs that put you in a good mood, give you super indie cred and that make Scraggers wanna spew up”?

Here is another band for Scraggers to shitcan.

Some nice Irish punk in Fontaines D.C

This is not a "cool" entry by any stretch, however...

I Want You by Savage Garden was on the radio in a cab today as I was hurtling towards work in Singapore. It immediately took me back to the heady days of grade 6 - getting up early on Saturday & Sunday to catch the top ten on Rage, heading off the tennis comp thereafter (this time was probably the pinnacle of my tennis career - U12's), hanging out with all my mates from the local Catholic primary school, fish and chips every Friday and powering down the hill around the corner from our house in rollerblades every weekend. Good times.

And this is just an absolute piece of 90's pop perfection. I've had it on repeat all day.

Wonderwall was the song I'd set my alarm for and wake up to watch. Then promptly go back to sleep.

I don't know why but I absolutely love Overkill by Men at Work:

It came out a bit before my time so I only first came across it watching Scrubs:

Because Colin Hay is Colin Hay, likely has something to do with it.

Brilliant track from a criminally underrated band.

I went off him when Telstra - a company that thinks and behaves like Australia owes it a living - appropriated and bastardised Land Down Under, and he was at the front and centre of it.

It's possible I don't need to keep as many receipts as I do.........

I heard Johnny Be Good in a shop the other day and deliberately waited until it finished before I left. That first Men at Work LP (which I ended up buying twice because I wore the first one out) is a cracking album. It has some great songs.

Don’t change - INXS is a feel good song for me. Reminds of me younger days down at the beach without a care in the world.

TD - not being pedantic but you mean ‘Be good Johnny’

An absolute batshit medley of eclectic covers by 2 different punk bands. Why yes, this does put me in a good mood.

And if the Rosenstock bit isn’t doing it for you then skip forward to the changeover and AJJ section a bit before 4 minutes. That’s when it gets fun.

Man Andrew Jackson Jihad is tight as tight.

What was the second cover they played?

Re: What song always puts you in a good mood?

Cigarettes After Sex: Tiny Desk Concert

I seriously love this band, in particular their self titled album.

According to the interweb they are an dream pop / shoegaz genere.

I love chucking on the vinyl on after I get home from on a Friday / Saturday night and listen to them and drift away.

Gates of Steel by Devo? With Fleetwood Mac and the Go-Go’s mashed in? I think there was a riff from something else before that -Barracuda
