There are many great songs out there which are specifically comforting, whose message uplifts (not religious, that's another genre) and I think it would be great to have a mix tape of those songs to listen to when the day is hard and you feel despair. Any suggestions about other songs like this?

mix tape? as in cassettes? I thought I was the only one. HAHA..
I still make many mixed tapew, mostly a mixture of the CD's I already have...but to feel uplifted...I usually go for The Damned, The Smiths or sometimes even Pink Floyd.
