   Do you have a song that is YOUR song and no matter how you are feeling, it always makes you feel positive and uplifted?

   Yup! I sing it all the time. I share it with a very Dearest Best Friend too. It is a camp song learned in scouting at a summer camp in W.VA. It is easily learned:
   
   Oh way up in the sky,
   the little bird flies,
   good morning, good morning,
   the little bird says . . .
   
   I loved singing that a ways back. Walking up to the morning of workers readying for the day the 'b****' session would begin. And, then I would sing that song. Grin. And, then everyone would have a good laugh.
   
   The cool part is we learned it as a tune then. Yet, I have heard it sung more ways than the sun shines . . .

      oh way up in the sky
      the little birds fly
      while down in the nest
      the little birds rest
      Shhh... their sleeping.
      The BRIGHT sun comes up
      and dew falls all down
      Good Morning, Good Morning
      the little birds SHOUT!
      
      I love it!

    Puffin' Biilly, an instrumental about a train, by British composer Edward White. It is the theme song from the Captain Kangaroo TV series from 1955 - 1974. Mary Rodgers wrote lyrics for the song after that, but I still like the original.

    Smile written by Charlie Chaplin. Check YouTube the version by Glee Cast, also NicoleCountry Glee has a great version, although the Michael Jackson and of course Nat King Cole are the classic versions.
    
    Charlie Chaplin was exiled from the United States. IF I remember he wrote the lyrics while he was exiled.
    
    Ironic and important history and the song still gives me chills.
    
    I like Michael Jackson's voice the best of all. Perhaps even more than my personal favorite voice Josh Groban.

    1973 "Kodachrome" - Paul Simon
    
    1965 "Baby I'm Your's" - Barbara Lewis

    Domino - Jessie J - awesome to listen to up loud, and interesting to note when she is singing "I'm feeling sexy and free" - she was sitting with her foot propped up after breaking her ankle, recording the song not feeling sexy or free - but you'd never guess.
    
    Man in the Mirror - Michael Jackson
    
    And just recently - Same Love by Macklemore + Ryan Lewis (feat Mary Lambert) - if you haven't heard it - you need to.
