Songs that make me feel good

I have mentioned E.F. Fitness's blog before in a post, and today I'm talking about music.
Emilie did a great blog on music for workouts, stuff that helps you get pumped for a run. I enjoyed reading through it and, incidentally, it inspired this blog post, which will be about songs that I listen to in the morning to get me ready for the day.
Yes, I am one of those people who can't get up and get ready without blasting my Spotify play list I created especially for getting dressed on a school day. Actually I am one of those people who has a Spotify play list for every occasion; car rides, working on school assignments, sleeping. You name it, I have it. And if I haven't created it myself, chances are it available in the browse section of the app.
I do tend to go in spurts of what I listen to, what artists I am "in love with," which is one of the main reasons I shell out $10 each month on my Spotify subscription. Its not worth it for me to pay for music on iTunes because I cycle through what I listen to so quickly. I can download the music i want at the time, and then when I'm done, delete it, all for only $10. Now I'm not trying to sell you on Spotify, although I have converted my of my friends and family members. But it is a great tool for discovering new music.
In the morning I tend to go for up beat indie and pop songs to get me in a good mood.
I have a few songs from the new One Direction album, even though at first I wasn't a fan, it's growing on me. They are up beat and fun to jam to in the morning. Classic 21st century pop.
I have a few today's hits type songs like Stolen dance by Milky Chance and some 5SOS, although I tend to stay away from songs I typically hear on the radio on the drive to school because I don't enjoy hearing the same music over and over, no matter how good it is.
I recently discovered a group called Branches, which is a more mellow type of (I would classify as folk rock) music. Good for morning tunes, but not something I would listen to all the time.
I also have been loving a song by Blind Melon called No Rain. Kind of a throw back, something my dad would listen to, but I have no shame.
