Just love the tune and just a track i like.:O)

Answer 7

Everyday people, By Sly and the family Stone

Answer 8

We can go anywhere - Jesse McCartney
catchy, rhythmic and makes me sing whenever i listen to it for some reason. Also, because it's great if you are down and wish you could be somewhere or it's great for when you are happy and over the moon as it's uptempo and wish to be somewhere with your love one.

Answer 9

Gotta Tell You by Samantha Mumba :)

Answer 10

Any song by The Eagles.
