Winter is brutal, so I want to make a playlist for spring to have something to look forward to. Just wanna hear feel-good catchy tunes.

Never heard this song before, but I haven't stopped playing it for weeks...kind of the vibe I'm looking for (love the chorus!!).

Barbara Pennington - On A Crowded Street

    Pennington directive also ignored.

    Speaking of directive...my bad. I totally overlooked the example you posted. At the moment I noticed the thread, the youtube vid didn't load (it's fine now) and I didn't see what example you provided.

    Don't Be Blue you ain't got far to go.
    You see better when you're moving slow.
    Don't get locked into your sadness,
    Cop a bluff, strut your stuff.
    If you stumble just be tongue in cheek.
    Love is always just like hide and seek.
    Antonio and Cleopatra did it too,
    So don't be blue, just don't be blue.
    If this high speed hassle gets you down,
    Remember, everyone is lost until they're found.
    Don't be blue, the sun is bound to shine.
    After winter comes the summer time.
    If you're locked into your sadness,
    Cop a bluff, strut your stuff.
    If you stumble just be tongue in cheek.
    Love is always just like hide and seek.
    Romeo and Juliett did it too,
    So don't be, don't be blue, just don't be blue.
