I love you guys. Been watching for years. No question that several times a week you guys post videos that I care about. Its like we have the same sense of humor (Disney may have forgotten about the Emperors New Groove but Ms Mojo and I have not) and its ALWAYS great to hear Rebecca or Emily on a video since theyre the voices Im the most familiar with (but Phoebe is getting there) I feel like yall could have chosen a better entry from Legally Blonde. Positive is incredibly short and culminates in Elle deciding to go brunette. I personally rock out to Oh My God You Guys or What You Want or So Much Better. Upbeat and cheerful and nice and Lon.

I'm old school as you'll see from my picks. Tradition, To Life and The Bottle Dance from Fiddler on the Roof, Hello, Dolly from Hello, Dolly, I Love to be in America from West Side Story, I'm On My Way from Paint Your Wagon, Shall We Dance from The King and I, All That Jazz from Chicago, Life is a Cabaret from Cabaret, I'll Go Home to Bonnie Jean from Brigadoon, Any Tom, Dick or Harry and Too Darn Hot from Kiss Me Kate, I Enjoy Being a Girl and Chop Suey from Flower Drum Song, I'm Gonna Wash That Man Right Out of My Hair from South Pacific, Jewelry from Baker Street. There's more, but I don't totally want to bore people.

Great choices!
Some old-school pick-me-up favorites of mine:
Heart (Damn Yankees)
Miracle of Miracles (Fiddler on the Roof)
June Is Bustin' Out All Over (Carousel -- yes, this show is seriously dated, but the song is still great)
A Lot of Livin' To Do (Bye Bye Birdie)
Honey Bun (South Pacific)
And since they were adapted for the Broadway stage, Make 'Em Laugh (Singin' in the Rain) and most of the songs from Mary Poppins should count.
From a more recent but (I think) underappreciated show: Revolting Children (Matilda)

This may sound strange, but whenever I hear the opening to We Go Together from Grease, I start crying. because it makes me feel THAT happy! I was about 14 when it came out, and I went to see it with friends (including one who knew Italian. he told me what some of those words meant) and it was just a great time. That song raises my heart so high. the tears come.
reply

I have a playlist to listen to before my current show I'm in and I'm adding some of these to that playlist. Especially La Vie Boheme, You Can't Stop the Beat, and Kinky Boots. I already have My Shot on the playlist. It's a good warm up song. You sing and it's more fun than tongue twisters. Also Shine Like the Sun from 9 to 5: the musical is a fun one!
reply

How about these? :
. Positoovity from The Little Mermaid the Musical
. Seize the Day or Carrying the Banner from Newsies
. Friend Like Me from Aladdin
. Bikini Bottom Day from Spongebob the Musical
. Gaston from Beauty and the Beast
. Love Thy Neighbor from the Prom

reply

So glad My Shot from Hamilton is in this and also I get to be in the Room Where It Happens in August. I'm seeing the And Peggy Tour with my Yongest Brother and we can't wait. My Shot is my favorite song from Hamilton because it gets you so hyped up and it's inspirational
reply

Its time to dance the prom
Youll be back from Hamilton(always puts me in a good mood)
Rum a tug tiger cats(one of the songs I can listen to outside of the show. Has a nice classic rock and roll feeling)

reply

My top 3 would probably have been
1) Out Tonight from Rent
2) It's Not About Me from The Prom
And
3) Do Your Own Thing from Bring It On
But I still love a lot of the songs from this list! X

Seize the Day from Newsies, Ex Wives from Six, One Short Day Wicked, You Can't Stop the Beat from Hairspray are just of the many Broadway songs I listen to for a pick me up. But the list was great!

My two songs that make me happiest are Matter of the House from Les Mis. And Dancing through life from wicked. As well as La vie boheme but that was mentioned
reply

A Musical from Something Rotten or Freak Flag from Shrek are just some of my songs I go to, even Shut Up and Raise Your Glass from Moulin Rouge is great.
reply

How about Put on a Happy Face from Bye Bye Birdie, or Tomorrow or It's a Hark Knock Life from Annie? Of course, they're much too old for MsMojo to remember.
reply

Can we not with The Book of Mormon? It's racist and spends it's full runtime mocking people's religion. It's 2022, this should NOT be acceptable.
reply

Carnival del barrio! One of my good friends actually lives in the heights. So I always think of him when I hear that song and it makes me so happy
reply

I have to say for a good pick up and to make me want to do chores I listen to anything from: SIX, Heathers, ALWs Cinderella, Waitress or Wicked

Ease on down the road from The Wiz puts a smile on my face. Surprised it's not on the list or even an honorable mention.
reply

My sisters and my favorite song from Dear Evan Hansen is Sincerely Me. We were dancing in our seats at the movie theatre.
reply

Any song from Hairspray would immediately get my vote. The entire musical is just so feel good and infectiously happy!
reply

A better name for this list would have been Top 10 Happiest Modern Broadway Songs. They missed a of classic musicals
