21 songs to fill you with happiness and confidence

Yesterday I wrote that I was having a bad day, even though nothing truly bad had happened, and feeling a little emotional. So many of you on Twitter and Facebook told me that you get those days too and even though I’m sorry to hear that, it’s comforting to know we all go through it and you’re not alone.

I’m a great believer that music has the power to lift your mood and make you happy, so I put together a little playlist of songs that do just that, as well as a few to boost the confidence by telling you how amazing you are.

Put them on loud and dance around your living room in your pyjamas. I promise you’ll feel better for it.
