What song instantly puts you in a better mood?
I’m building an unofficial community list of songs that can rescue a flat day. No cool points awarded and no guilty pleasures allowed because pleasure does not need a court hearing. What track gets you moving, singing, cleaning the kitchen dramatically, or generally feeling a bit more alive?

September by Earth, Wind & Fire. No hesitation. It’s warm, familiar and impossible to hear without at least one shoulder getting involved. If we ever do a community ‘songs that rescue a rubbish day’ playlist, that has to be on it.

Nina’s pick for an instant mood reset.
Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! by ABBA. Immediate answer. It has absolutely no interest in letting you stay in a bad mood, and the opening is recognisable before your brain has even finished deciding whether it wants to dance.
