well... not so much feel good as the best piece of music for me to listen to when I need to psych myself up for something.

As I have recounted elsewhere before in the archives of this august forum, I listened to Fearless -- loud(ly) -- on the lab stereo shortly before my thesis defense (early fall of 1986). I guess it worked (i.e., I passed).
Here's another song that never (!!) fails to make me smile, although it's seasonal (house rules -- talk to my wife). I know this one's polarizing. Actually, I don't think anyone but me & Mrs. H like this one but boy howdy, we do.
I mean -- listen to that bass line; it's superb!

By "Feel Good" in a nice way, kind of syrupy, is Michael Gross "Shannon".
Shannon being a dog that.....well, that's where things went a little south.
In fact, this video is....well ..

By "Feel Good" in a positive way where you want to get up and pop, that obnoxious neighbor in the kisser then... Pantera "Walk"

Shannon is sad as heck

This brings back so many memories of crushing with my friends as a teenager.
