Have you reached 'the other side of down'?

I just saw this tweet from Indonesian Archies and it made think:

Have I reached 'the other side of down' this last year? To be completely honest, unfortunately, I don't think I've completely reached the other side of down since October 5, 2010. I've still had my moments this past year where I was on the opposite side of the other side of down (confused yet? haha). But, on the contrary, I do listen to the album all the time, and it inspires me every single time. The songs on that album have helped me out a lot through different things, especially TOSOD. Many different lyrics from the entire album always seem to come into my mind when I may need them and help me, and though I may not actually be on 'the other side of down' just yet, I think those little reminders prove that I'm definitely getting there.

So, have YOU reached 'the other side of down' after a year?

Gets your mood up, but calms you down too

What music does that for you? TOSOD definitely does for me :)

EDIT: Buzz from Mindful Of Music:

Upon seeing this tweet from David Archuleta earlier, it got me thinking - what music gets my mood up, but calms me down too? Well one I know for sure is David's music. His album The Other Side of Down, for me, is the definition of what he described. Every song on that album is uplifting yet calming, and is perfect for any occasion. From the positive "The Other Side of Down" to the enjoyable "Parachutes And Airplanes" to the inspirational "Things Are Gonna Get Better", every song on that album puts you in a different mindset and gets you pondering about your life as the music takes you on a journey into David's view of life. David's wisdom and positive outlook that shines through in these songs definitely always puts me in a good mood and calms me down, and I'm sure a lot of Archie fans would agree.
