Default The Happiest Song

Well, made me think of the most uplifting songs…Again, I will do my 1975-1987 pick.

Say You Love Me
Don’t Stop
Think About Me
Hold Me
Everywhere

Well, Christine gets the award for the most uplifting songs on those 5 albums.

Blue Letter (Even though it's not written by a band member)
That's Alright
Dreams
Blue Lamp
Just to name a few, because there are too many to remember right now!

I was thinking in Dreams, but I'd say it's more optimistic than happy.

Love in Store

Lots already mentioned…but for me the ultimate is Love Shines. It feels so happy, maybe in part abetted by the video. They seemed happy despite being in a very uncertain place at that time.

Don't Stop, You Make Loving Fun, Say You Love Me... Chris takes the cake hands down. (Mixed metaphor?)

Lindsey songs that smell happy at first whiff usually end up tasting miserable or bitter when you properly chew on them, and Stevie's attempt to write a happy feel-good song in Angel ended up veering into her foggy cosmos of disjointed visions. I want to give her Say You Will, but the lead vocal delivery is so strident and joyless, despite the upbeat music and giddy lyrics.

Although it's not Rumours lineup, I second the vote for Love Shines.

Well it could still be happy. I mean I always become happy while singing Picture yourself in a boat on a river With tangerine trees and marmalade skies...
