What is your happy song?

Cool, and yeah I love that song; 'cause when I'm sad, she comes to me with a thousand smiles she gives to me free. It's alright, she said it's alright; take anything you want from me. Anything!

I also like to listen to this:

YouTube - Sam Cooke - A Change Is Gonna Come

If this song doesn't bring a smile to your face you're probably dead. Or a communist.


YouTube - Sam and Max - Glazed McGuffins Song

If I'm in a bad mood, I usually don't want to be made happy. I want to wallow and brood and fester, so I'm more likely to listen to something dark and crabby lol.

I do that as well. Just once in awhile, my list can get me through a busy day at work and such. I should have mentioned I don't listen to them...I sing them at work.

Imagine this flaming straight guy singing Boy George. I don't care how gloomy of a mood you are in, you are going to laugh. Or sing Touch Myself by Divinyls. I also do it because people at work can be really negative so I do it to give a some brevity and lightheartedness to the day. I swear when I get my orders done that I work on, one of these days I'm going to be dancing like Farv did on the field to Vanilla Ice.

I have a separate list of the songs that I listen to when I am pensive...like I am currently.

I'm weird. I listen to what some might call sad or angry music and it makes me happy. Likee.. anything Coldplay makes me happy. Or Linkin Park. Oh, Pink Floyd always makes me happy. Pink Floyd's High Hopes = Happiness.

I do the same thing, and it makes me happy also. Though I prefer Alter Bridge or System Of A Down when it comes to more recent music.

Oh, and BTW "High Hopes" is epic.

oh, actually

Epic Classic

God Bless,

I always find this kind of works, in the rare times that I'm happy.

YouTube - Grandaddy- AM 180

Waltzing Mathilda always makes me feel happy, and sometimes I play that when I'm in a very happy mood (just don't confuse it for And the Band Played Waltzing Mathilda - that will NOT make you happy!).

Some other good mentionables:

You're the Best Around, from the Karate Kid soundtrack
Hold on Tight to Your Dreams, by Electric Light Orchestra
Xanadu, by Olivia Newton John

Both of these do the job.

YouTube - Mortification - Metal Crusade

YouTube - P.O.D. - Execute The Sounds

Ah, Mortification: my gateway band into the metal scene. I actually composed an orchestral version of "Visited by an Angel" once, but sadly I lost it when my hard drive crashed and haven't gotten around to redoing it.

YouTube - Lissie - When I am Alone with Lyrics

Gorgeous voice.

Usually any praise music will do it, especially some David Crowder Band. When focusing on the King, its hard to think about my insignificant problems.
