Ask Candy: What are the Songs That Make You Feel Good?

"Firework" by Katy Perry and "Shake It Off" by Taylor Swift. I think they're really empowering and fun. —Steph, Art Director




I can't stop listening to Chvrches' new album, Every Open Eye, especially the song "Make Them Gold." Love these lines: We are made of our longest days / We are falling but not alone / We will take the best parts of ourselves / And make them gold. —Dyan, Entertainment and Features Editor



"Smells Like Teen Spirit" by Nirvana and "Paranoid Android" by Radiohead —Ning, Fashion and Beauty Assistant



Sometimes, when the day sucks, you just got to sing it out. "I Don't Want To Be" by Gavin De Graw, "Here Without You" by 3 Doors Down, and "Wonderwall" by Oasis. —Bianca, Fashion and Beauty Assistant

When I want to cheer myself up, I can count on my '90s queens Tamia and Tatyana Ali to cheer me up. P.S. Have you heard the awesome Tamia cover that Childish Gambino did recently? I'm obsessed. —Macy, Web Managing Editor

It might seem unconventional but I really like to cheer myself up with hip-hop music! Lately I listen to a little Drake, Kendrick Lamar, and Kanye. —Erin, Associate Web and Fashion Editor

Songs by Bleachers always make me feel happy. My favorites: "I Wanna Get Better," "Wild Heart," and "Take Me Away." —Ayessa, Web Editorial Assistant
