Music Mondays - Happy

How does music make you feel? 

As I drive down to visit my mum, my automatic response is to put my music on, turn it up loud & then I noticed something.  When I have music on I can't help but be moved, I can't help but sing my heart out & then the dancing starts!  

Yes, I am that person at the traffic lights singing so loud you can hear it, body dancing & doing that face. Everyone has a singing face if you think you don't - you do!!
I also use have an imaginary microphone which comes out especially in duets so I can hand over the mic to hubby to do the male parts!

Anyways music def does something to me deep down inside.  I put on bouncy tracks to give me energy when getting ready, I put on dancy tunes when I'm going out to get me in the mood, I play motivational high temp stuff in the gym & when I'm meditating I use soothing sounds to silence my mind.  There may even be some science behind it - here.

I have such a wide taste in music but I do follow the charts & love nothing more than a cheesy pop song or an 80s classic hit!  I use playlists a lot, depending on my mood or what I want to feel dictates what I listen to.  I already have a positive tunes playlist but I've not added much to it recently.  With the music blaring my mind immediately started thinking, that should be a blog post.  

Music Monday  

I know it's not really original but I do like alliteration.  Music Monday will feature songs that make you sing out loud, dance like nobody's watching, or get you running that bit faster on the treadmill.

My first song has to be Happy by Pharrell Williams.  It's just so catchy & positive.  So as I was clapping along I knew it had to be my first feature

Lyrics I love

Because I'm Happy …  Clap along if you feel like happiness is the truth

Do you have a positive playlist?

Feel free to send me your suggestions to feature on #MusicMondays
