Songs that make your brain puke rainbows?

I like to have a healthy mic of extremely depressing songs and songs where the beat is just so happy and energetic they make my brain feel like it's literally cracked out.

Some extreme examples I have are...

Röyksopp - Happy Up Here

OMFG - Hello
www.youtube.com/watch?v=ih2xub…
^ anything from OMFG though tbh

Deastro - Light Powered
www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tzkr-z…

Anyone else know any good songs like this? Obviously It's all personal preference.

I recommend Anamanaguchi. Pop-punk power rock with chiptune! Sweet dreams fuel!

Also the Rhythm Heaven Fever soundtrack has a lot of short but immensely catchy tracks. Very J-pop like.

The Unicorns were like this.  IMO the music itself was upbeat, but the lyrics were awfully dark.

"I spotted the glow over the mountain, tonight
My turn to turn in just when the weather's getting nice
I predict: i die in a plane crash
I see it now, i die in a car on tour
And there's no one to stop this
Nobody to loosen death's firm grip on me

Doo doo doo doo i die
It's true
Doo doo doo doo i die
And so do you

My prophecy is almost complete
My finger's on the pulse
(but where's the beat?)

We don't wanna die in the ocean
(drifting out to sea)
We don't want to die in our sleep
(ing bags)

DEATH buckle up boys, we're going for a little ride

Death! I just want one more breath!
Can you grant me one more please?"

"Tell me about your love affairs
Tell me about your moral resignation
Oh, uh-oh, oh oh oh oh
Uh-oh, uh-oh

Tell me about your love affairs
I want to know all the lurid details
Oh oh oh uh-oh
Oh oh oh uh-oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
Uh-oh uh-oh

I want to die today
And make love with you in my grave
I want to die today
And make love with you in my grave
All day
All day

Is this love of ours a lie?
Is it killing me alive?
Is this love of ours a lie?
Is it chemically derived to ascertain
And sequester the pain
Is this love of ours a lie?"

"I dove into that freezing sea
With the parasite attached to me
I had hoped the salt below
Would divorce what was wed above

But league after league
It yet remained
For the fleshy vessel I
Kept it sustained

And so we froze a while surrounded by one big tear
Which only reminded me of a former home

But we weren't welcome
The sea made that clear
By filling us with saline
And sailing us blue blue back into
The atmosphere

"You choked as you surfaced, tangled in seaweed"

But what remained?
Of the driving intent?
That led me to tract such watery depths
Many things have betrayed me
Between there and here
And my memory is so fucking unclear

Who was I with? What time was it? Where did you go?"
