Happy.  That's the name of the song but I can't think who recorded it.  It always puts me a good mood.  There are a lot of other songs I like, just can't think of them right now.


Pharrell Williams?

Another real favorite is Elton John's "In The Air Tonight".  I always turn up the volume when that comes on my car radio and sing along, lol.

Did he do a version of that song? I'm only aware of Phil Collin's song by that name.

Re: OT: WHAT SONG MAKES YOU HAPPY!

I don't know, happy isn't something I generally associate with music. I prefer music that is evocative and generally in a minor key extra points if it includes the cello. If I had to pick something I like that I'd call "happy music" I'd say, Exactly by Amy Steinberg, Mr Brightside by The Killers, Riot Girl by Good Charlotte, Holiday by Green Day, Sing by My Chemical Romance. 

 

But I'd much rather listen to Depeche Mode's Black Celebration or My Chemical Romance The Black Parade, Peter Murphy, Rasputina, Dead Can Dance, Emilie Autumn, Faith and the Muse, The Awakening, The Birthday Massacre, or opera like Lucia Di Lammermoore or La Boheme.
