When it comes to feeling good, the movies have a major advantage.

Not only do they have great feel good soundtracks – but there’s the feel good memories of the movie and its story and characters, too.

So, your host of Screen Sounds, Dan Golding, expects soundtracks to feature deep into this year’s ABC Classic 100: Feel Good. Join him today for a little voting inspiration as he plays music from the uplifting, from the joyous, and from the toe-tapping world of the screen.
