Ok so you know there are songs that no matter what...they just make you plain ole HAPPY. Maybe it is becuase you have special memories attached or maybe you just love the song. Regardless of the reasons, pure bliss is felt as they ring in your ears. well here are some of my ALL time favorite happy songs:
Hide and Seek by Imogen Heap
Strict Machine- Goldfrapp (this one is kinda a strange pick for me but for some reason i love this song)
Girl from Ipanema- Astrud Gilberto (I can be a sucker for bossa nova sometimes)
New Soul- Yael Naim (new addition to the list... see last post)
Since you've been gone- Kelly Clarkson ( I can't help not belting out this one no matter where i am when i hear it)
Somewhere over the rainbow- Eva Cassidy ( I think everyone should hear this version...beautifully simple)
Crazy- Patsy Cline (If I could have a voice like anyone... believe it or not.. I pick Patsy Cline)
Hallelujah- Rufus Wainwright (ok even though the song is in Shrek i still love it, imogen heap also does a great version)
My little Girl -Tim mcgraw (any "daddy's girl" will LOVE and CRY after hearing this song)
Colors - Amos Lee
Ok i could add more.. and go on and on.. but i must leave you with the worlds best HAPPY song....
drumroll please.........
Whitney Houston- "I WANNA DANCE WITH SOMEBODY" who can help but bust a move and belt this song!!!
ps. one of Chris's happy songs is 15 step by Radiohead (this whole album " In Rainbows" he calls his happy album)

POWER of Advertising
Ok so who ever Mac pays to find the music for thier commercials...they should be greatly rewarded! You know how we all have songs that no matter what or how many times we hear them, they make us overflow with happiness. Well for me...this would be about every song found in the Mac commercials. I mean, come on... the Feist song "1...2...3...4" made me so happy I went out and bought my own new nano video i-pod ahile ago. Ok but the BEST Mac song yet is for the new macbook air (which I want so bad but will never be able to afford one...haha) which is by the wonderful French artist Yael Naim (I think this is a hebrew name) called "New Soul". She is such a cute artist and I thought her video for the song is super creative and of course just HAPPY. So I promise it won't be a waste of your time to click the video below.
ok also...another great song, "Music Box" from a commercial is by Regina Spektor (another GREAT artist). This is for a J.C. Penny's commercial from awhile ago but once again I can NEVER get sick of this song. Here is the commercial below:
