I am preparing a CD with upbeat, lust-for-life, feelgood songs, so far I have come up with "Regret" and "still on Fire" from Aztec Camera, I know the idea sounds a bit corny but it's for a good cause. Any suggestions?
While on the subject, have you noticed that Mozza's "Everyday is like Tuesday" sounds quite optimistic when you ignore the lyrics? (...and the fact that it's Morrisey singing, sure)
Bring Me Sunshine - Morecambe & Wise Celebratin - Kool & The Gang
Cheesy, I know, but upbeat!
Depeche Mode- "Enjoy the silence" Echo & The Bunnymen- "Seven seas" Iggy Pop- "Candy" David Bowie- "Everyone says Hi" James- "Getting away with it (all messed up)" Garbage- "Stupid girl" The Railway Children- "Every beat of the heart" Charlatans- "North Country Boy" A Certain Ratio- "Shack up (Electronic remix)" Primal Scream- "Autobahn 66" Propaganda- "Duel" The Smiths- "The boy with the thorn in his side" Suede- "Trash"

Isn't it "Everyday Is Like Sunday"? (I dunno, all the days run easily one into another as of late, it seems).
How about "Get Over You" by The Undertones?
Favourite Shirts by Haircut 100. It is a proven fact that you will have a miserable night out unless this is the last thing you hear before leaving the house.
thought this was supposed to be upbeat songs?
how about
groove is in the heart - dee-lite laid - james here comes the summer - the undertones anything by ooberman mrs robinson - the lemonheads
Thank you all, some wonderful suggestions. I think I am going to have two CD's burned instead of one. I don't think I am including anything by Leonard Cohen, though! 
I was bored yesterday afternoon before the Grand Prix, so I had a beer or two and completed a C90 tape :
How Was It For You JAMES Shine MONACO Ask SMITHS Mr Disco NEW ORDER Tasty Fish THE OTHER TWO Only Love Can Break Your Heart ST ETIENNE Whatever OASIS Feel Every Beat ELECTRONIC Made Of Stone STONE ROSES To The End BLUR Something So Good RAILWAY CHILDREN Words THE DOVES Dream Attack NEW ORDER Motorcycle Emptiness MANIC STREET PREACHERS Love Will Tear Us Apart JOY DIVISION Sexuality BILLY BRAGG Career Opportunities THE CLASH.
I'm sure there were a couple more, but my memory is fookin terrible after last nights drinking session;)
Some great choices in some of the other posts.
