This guy was more up my street. Sadly he didn't make it to the international scene and died young(ish).

Here's hoping his music gets some international exposure through the good offices of this forum.

I think we all have a few pieces of music that immediately lift our spirits.
For me, the first one that comes to mind is Down under by Men at Work, the unofficial Australian national anthem: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XfR9iY5y94s

My favorite uplifting song is Whitney Houston's "I Wanna Dance With Somebody." Seriously, pop this on and you all will be dancing in no time...
Those were good times for music, the 80's 🤩

One striking thing is that love songs are more often in minor than in major chord... 🤔 ▲ Collapse
