Back up and running

MASSIVE COMPUTER WOES. Last night I had to perform a system recovery (fortunately the "standard" form, not the full, bloody hard drive wipeout--which means my iTunes files are still intact). As far as I can tell, my computer was hijacked by spyware scumbags, but things seem to be on the mend now, fingers crossed. So while I reload software and get things back to the way I like em, here's a mix of songs that usually bring a smile to my face. Hope they'll do the same for you.
