Everyone has certain songs they love to blare while taking a shower, laying on the beach or driving with the windows down. If you're a music lover like me, making playlists and taking over the aux cord is one of your favorite pastimes. However, it becomes hard to please everyone. When they start requesting songs, just turn on these crowd-pleasers and you'll have them for the rest of the ride. Here are 10 upbeat songs guaranteed to brighten you and your friends' days.

1. September by Earth, Wind, and Fire

This tune makes me want to get up wherever I am and dance. If Snapchat dedicates a filter to it, it's a pretty big deal (right?). It should be considered one of the greatest classics because of its ability to satisfy everyone's tastes.

2. Hey Ya! by OutKast

Do I really need to explain this one?

3. I'm Not Gonna Teach Your Boyfriend How to Dance with You - The Twelves Remix by Black Kids

This isn't as well-known as the first two, but it's something new and different. The electronic beats will make you want to bust out your best robot move.

4. Twist and Shout by The Beatles

Remember the parade scene in "Ferris Bueller's Day Off?" That's what I think about every time I listen to this song. It captures the mood of the song perfectly.

5. Island In The Sun by Weezer

Picture this: you're on the beach, soaking up the sun, and there's a slight breeze in the air. You have a fruity umbrella drink in your hand without a care in the world. "On an island in the sun..."

6. Come on Eileen by Dexys Midnight Runners

The perfect swing dancing song — give it a try.

7. My Type by Saint Motel

The brass section in this is killer; it'll make you want to shake your tailfeathers.

8. Play That Funky Music by Wild Cherry

An instant mood-booster.

9. Good As Hell by Lizzo

This is that song I love to drive to, windows down and hair flying everywhere. Ladies if you need a pick me up, here it is. 10/10 would recommend.

10. Don't Stop Believin' by Journey

Play this at any party and watch the room come to life. Expect at least three air guitarists by the end of the chorus.

It's hard to cater to a room's musical needs. With these songs, you're destined to spark someone's interest. Music has the ability to switch something on inside our heads which can change our mood instantly. Think about it next time you listen to a certain song, how do you feel after?
