Monday Morning Songs

Note: The inspiration for this list goes out to Nick Hornby and Jack Black

The following are songs that on a Monday morning put you in a good mood and get you out of bed. As usual, they are in no particular order.

1. Son of a Preacher Man - Dusty Springfield
2. Superstitious - Stevie Wonder
3. Crazy Train - Ozzy (no last name needed) and Randy Rhodes
4. Hooked on a Feeling - BJ Thomas (Blue Suede version not allowed; and neither is the Hasselhoff version. The video for the Hasselhoff video might make a "Videos that would make you wake up on a Monday morning" list, and firmly establishes Hasselhoff as the successor to Shatner. But that's a subject for an entirely different entry)
5. Walking on Sunshine - Katrina and the Waves
6. Tired of Being Alone - The Reverend Al Green (Can I get a "Hell's Yeah!!" "Hell's Yeah!!")
7. Sailing - Christopher Cross, if only but to throw your stereo a.) against the wall, b.) into the river, c.) into the garbage after destroying it with a hammer


This is an ever-expanding list. Be prepared for sequels.
