You know, those tunes you just KNOW will make you feel peppy/productive/etc.; when you hear them, you just can't stay bitter for long! Rule of Thumb: if you're chasing a wacky cartoon animal, and said animal plays this theme on a nearby radio, and it causes you to dance/smile/whatever long enough for the animal to escape, it belongs here. (because I have no better way to explain it)
This doubles as both my Vidya Pick and Obnoxiously Weeb Pick, but uh, the opening theme from Dragon Ball Z Budokai 3 (whatever it's technically called...) has that effect on me. It has a unique energy even among DBZ-related songs...
...I'lll get back to you about more "normal" tunes which do the same. I wanna say some power metal track or something, but none of the tunes I recall affect me like the above one... yet.
Anyone else feel that musical magic, or am I mildly mad?

A French song called Bobo always gets me excited whenever it plays on my Liked Songs playlist on my Echo Dot.
My dad hates French music, but I think Gosch is good.

^I guess I haven't heard enough French music to really have an opinion on it in general. I have a nagging feeling I'm forgetting one or two retro songs that just so happened to be in French or of French origin, but I digress.
Now I have to add another video game and/or Japanese song to my own list, since it helped me more than I thought it would this evening: Katamari on the Swing. FUN FACT: playing We <3 Katamari on a demo disc was my first real experience with culture shock! ...but to be fair, the Katamari series IS pretty weird on its own. The opening sequence to the game is trippy enough visually, so the song (which is just as enjoyable without the visuals in its own right) just adds to the absurdity. Those first few seconds really sledge you over the head, and the song as a whole is basically a prelude of what to expect in the game itself. I'm... obviously nostalgic for it at the moment.
