8. I Feel Better - Gotye
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DgoEptzXoeo After taking the world by storm with his hit 'Somebody That I Used To Know', multi-instrumentalist Wouter De Backer more commonly known as Gotye may seem a bit like a one trick pony. As is the unfortunate truth of popular radio, the song was played to death and everyone's ears became violently opposed to it. For anyone who looked past this, his album Making Mirrors is a veritable treasure trove of quality material from the singer-songwriter. As we're sticking to positivity here the clear choice is 'I Feel Better'. With its message of being content and improving yourself the track is almost oppressively happy, I assure you this is not an issue. Sometimes it is just what you need when it's raining outside and there's nothing to do, a good sing along to something upbeat. It won't take you long to learn the words to this one, and in its simplicity lies its brilliance. Basic concepts and choruses generally make for classic songs, while this may never fall into that category it's undeniably fun.
