Songs of happiness

[Legion]

Listening to these songs makes you happy for whatever reason. List in whatever order.

For instance, Wicker Man by Bruce Dickinson*. Those overlapping choruses at the end.


*Dickinson solo. Nothing to do with Wicker Man by Iron Maiden, which is still golden anyway.

Nice thread!

Well of course there's a lot of that kind of songs. Some of them:

Motorhead: Angel city, I'm so bad
Ramones: almost every song!
Rush: The trees
Rainbow: Spotlight kid
Die Toten Hosen: Liebeslied

Thanks dude.

For indiscernible reasons: Nightmare/The Dreamtime by Motörhead and Hoarfrost by Sonic Youth. They are supposed to be nightmarish and depressing but something in the music clicks with me.

Several songs of Motörhead bring me that feeling, especially Shine and Another Perfect day. I like to listen Shine usually on Fridays before a night out and Another Perfect Day to lift the mood of the day, a few examples.

But when I read this topic came in my mind a song by Roky Erickson called 'White Faces', she has a beautiful melody and always gives me a sense of well being when I hear.

Aaaaah, happiness! BIG word and so many definitions ......
But boiling it down to the classic example of "from grumpy to happy in less than 30 seconds", I'd definitely recommend something like LET THERE BE ROCK for the instant remedy.
Video is terrific, too, with Angus looking like a demented choirboy sporting a halo and Bon grinning like a Cheshire cat all the time;

i really don't have any song that could make me happy

i do have songs that go together with specific moods, but those are unfortunately mostly some depressive or angry ones

Interesting. I actually was under the impression that this could be so for many, but I sort of wasn't expecting confirmation.
Eh, it's okay dude. I'm sure your music helps you out in its own way.

Hah.

[motorajzd]

i tink you got me wrong.

it' s just i don't have songs which are mood changer, i use music more for soundtrack for curent mood, so if i'm happy i'll play something like please don't touch, but if i'm just about to kill myself i'll play dunkelheit by burzum

i see music more of a soundtrack than something that can instantly change my mood, really doesn't matter is it happiness or anger

[Legion]

Haha, yeah I got you wrong.

Although I also don't actively use music to change my mood. That never worked for me. The soundtrack way is also how I go, but there are some passages that get me ecstatic even if I'm in a good mood already.
