Release the Pressure- Leftfield.
(For dancing, wake up and go!)

For sentimental times when a good cry is appropriate it would be Redemption Song- Bob Marley.

Beyond the sea - Bobby Darin.
Secret Love - Kathy Kirby.
Both remind me of my lovely parents.

Mine - Black by Pearl Jam;
"I know someday you'll have a beautiful life
I know you'll be a star
In somebody else's sky
But why
Why
Why can't it be
Oh can't it be mine"
This part breaks my heart.

Too many to name just one. But 'The weight' by the Band has been a long time favourite.
