These are mine from Gnarls Barkley.
"Your worries and fears become your friends
And they end up smilin' at you"
It works too!

lifes like an hourglass glued to the table
breathe- anna nalick
yesterday was hell but today im fine without you
straightjacket feeling- all american rejects
Hold on...if you feel like letting go
Hold on...it gets better than you know
Dont stop looking youre one step closer
Dont stop searching its not over...hold on
hold on- good charlotte
i know the stars are holding, holding you tonight
tonight- fm static
Well I, believe, it all, is coming to an end
oh well, I guess, we're gonna pretend,
let's see how far we've come
lets see how far we've come- matchbox 20
These are the days that last forever
A time in my life I won't surrender
For better or worse, these are the days
In my life, I've loved no other
We all have pain
We all have suffered
For better or worse, these are the days
I will remember
Suddenly there's comfort in
The way the world comes crashing in
And every year reminds me I'm alive
Tonight
these are the days- the exies

Happy Face
by Destiny's Child

My brightest star's my inner light let it guide me
Experience and innocence bleed inside me
Hallucinogens can open me or untie me
I drift in inner space, free of time
I find a higher state of grace, in my mind
I'm beautiful
I wasn't born to follow
I live just for today, don't care about tomorrow
What i've got in my head you can't buy, steal or borrow
I believe in live and let live
I believe you get what you give
I've glimpsed, I have tasted, fantastical places
My soul's an oasis, higher than the sun
I'm higher than the sun

"Life is often a roller coaster ride
You slide
You hit the bottom hard
You have to run away and hide
But you gotta sit up
Shake yourself down
Start your life again
And see the funny side
Here's a little song
To help the pain along
Come on and sing now"
Tragedy by Marc Almond
It always makes me feel better about my day.
It makes me smile! :D Actually the whole song makes me feel good.

Although rather cynical and pessimistic, Life's Gonna Suck by Dennis Leary cheers me up every time. http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=A8e_nqC5Z8I
"Let's push it all aside, swallow our pride and realise that nothing could sweeter than loving each other if we'd forget who was wrong and who was right" - Push It All Aside by Alisha's Attic http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=A8e_nqC5Z8I
Always Look On The Bright Side is a real classic too... despite the possible clichés!
Good Times by S Club (7) http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=hjKsdKhLPOo
"You can't kill my dreams/You can't kill my spirit/I was born to be free" - I Walk to My Own Song by Stratovarius http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=EMGBbPSTmCI
Happy Face by Destiny Child - although it's about 30 seconds too long IMO
Independent Women Part I by Destiny Child. Thank God at least 1 urban song celebrates strong females! http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=kus7B5McpBo

Haven't heard too many optimistic songs, but one that works for me is "Don't worry, Be happy" by Bob Marley... can't get simpler, can it? He even offers you his phone number so you can call him if you're feeling down, and he'll cheer you up... Always makes me smile, that song... :)

No Surprises by Radiohead.
A heart that's full up like a landfill,
a job that slowly kills you,
bruises that won't heal.
You look so tired-unhappy,
bring down the government,
they don't, they don't speak for us.
I'll take a quiet life,
a handshake of carbon monoxide,
with no alarms and no surprises,
no alarms and no surprises,
no alarms and no surprises,
Silent silence.
This is my final fit,
my final bellyache,
with no alarms and no surprises,
no alarms and no surprises,
no alarms and no surprises please.
Such a pretty house
and such a pretty garden.
No alarms and no surprises,
no alarms and no surprises,
no alarms and no surprises please.
