Spin-Off: Favorite Happy Songs
 

Taking a cue from Tracye's thread, what are your favorite happy songs?

My biggest one is Carly Simon's Let the River Run. :laugh: I *love* that song, always have. Another one that puts a huge grin on my face is Sparkling Diamonds from Moulin Rouge.

Brown Eyed Girl makes me happy !

"Hold Me" always makes me happy.

Also, "AM Radio" by Everclear, "Ten Rounds with Jose Cuervo" by Tracy Byrd, and most anything by the Beach Boys.

Some of my favorite "Happy Songs"....

"Don't Stop"
"Say You Will"
"If Anyone Falls"
"Love Will Show Us How"
"Got A Hold On Me"
"You Make Loving Fun"
"Holiday Road"
"At Last"
"Happy Together" - The Turtles
"Break Every Rule" - Tina Turner
"Whatever You Need" - Tina
"When You Say Nothing At All" - Alison Krauss
"The More I See You" - Nancy Sinatra
"Mad About You" - Belinda Carlisle
"Maybe I'm Amazed" - Paul McCartney

(I've been into a lot of "silly love songs" lately. :o )

Say You Will... Fleetwood Mac
Something's Gotta Give... Etta James (I think that's who sings it?)

Her new album is faaaaaaabulous. :nod:

I think her whole "Live Your Life Be Free" album ranks as being one of the happiest, silliest albums ever. I Plead Insanity, especially. :laugh:

Anything by Abba... Water Loo, Dancing Queen, Mama Mia!

okay, better stop.

Anything by Erasure makes me happy. :thumbsup:

Omigod! I forgot about Erasure! I still have one of their tapes. They're the only Europop fag (no offense intended, of course) band I ever liked!!!! I'll have to bust that out... :xoxo:

They're freaking awesome! And I was immediately offended when you wrote Europop fag. So, I'm glad you clarified! :mad: :lol: :lol: :lol: See, the laughing guy means I was kidding! Made sure I clarified!

Love to Hate You, Blue Savannah, Star, A Little Respect. The list goes on and on! They are so great! Apparently Andy Bell (singer) is dying of AIDS though. Super sad. Their new album is very reflective. Apparently he's pretty sick now. Sigh... A world without Andy Bell is a sad, sad world!

Oh, no!!! That is sad. Yeah, I liked them because they were all fast and fun, not depressive and drony like the other ones I can think of. You know how everyone likes the Cure, and Morissey, and the Smiths, and, uh, whoever else? I don't like them. (well, I like a few songs by the Smiths for a brief period, but I was just trying to be cool)
Oh, another one I like is Bronski Beat.

run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away! I totally sing that as I walk down the stairs to the pool. remember the video where Jimmy Sommerville has a boner for that swimmer guy! Well, that's me! So many cute swimmers. So few towels to cover my crotch! :lol:

:lol: :lol: :lol:
God, this one message every sixty seconds thing really ruins my flow. I could be up to 20,000 posts by now! :laugh:

So, what happens when you hit 20,000? Does a giant spider come eat you? :lol:
