Feeling the mid-week slump hit hard? Trust us, you're not alone. Even powerhouses like Oprah, Obama, and Musk need a little musical pick-me-up sometimes. That's why they, and plenty of other successful individuals, aren't shy about sharing their personal playlists – a testament to the power of music to uplift and inspire.

Today, we're following suit! Below, you'll find our carefully curated selection of upbeat, positive songs that get our day started on the right foot (in the kitchen and at the office!). So, crank up the volume, feel the positive vibrations flowing your way, and let's Get Up Offa That Thing together.

1. “Get Up Offa That Thing” by James Brown: This ain't no background music – it's a full-on sonic bootcamp, about shaking off negativity and embracing life's rhythm from the Godfather of Soul himself. Rise and unleash your inner funk groove: Get Up Offa That Thing - YouTube Music

We honestly couldn’t choose between two classic anthems so we give you another soul-stirring groove at number two on our playlist…

2. “Papa’s Got a Brand New Bag” by James Brown: The horns blare, the drums pound, and the bassline hypnotizes. This song gave birth to Funk and changed music forever. Papa's Got A Brand New Bag (Pts.1 & 2 / Single Version) - YouTube Music

3. "Levitating" by Dua Lipa: We feel the weightless euphoria as Dua Lipa's vocals transport us to a world of pure joy. As for mastering Lipa’s signature hip bounce, practice makes perfect! Come on, dance with me: Levitating - YouTube Music

9. “Waka Waka (This Time for Africa)” by Shakira: This song was the official anthem for the 2010 FIFA World Cup held in South Africa, the first time the tournament was held on African soil.
