As part of my All About Me posts I thought it was only appropriate to share with you some of my musical tastes. Everyone has songs that regardless of how they are feeling just a few bars can instantly lift their mood and help increase motivation too. I find my playlist ideal as a background track for doing the housework-the dullest task going- as there are plenty tunes to bop along to duster in hand!
My taste in music generally is pretty eclectic which definitely shows in my ‘Happy’ playlist choices!

Build Me Up Buttercup – The Foundations
5, 6, 7, 8 – Steps
Waterloo – ABBA
Uptown Funk – Mark Ronson ( ft Bruno Mars)
Sax – Fleur East
Bat Out Of Hell – Meatloaf
Can’t Stop The Feeling – Justin Timberlake
Relight My Fire – Take That (ft Lulu)
Walking on Sunshine – Katrina & The Waves
Don’t Stop Me Now – Queen
Rock DJ – Robbie Williams
We Like To Party (The Vengabus) – Vengaboys
Five Colours in Her Hair – McFly
Dancing Queen – ABBA
Follow Me – Uncle Kracker
You can listen to and download our playlists on Apple Music and Spotify
