hought I'd start a really positive thread to mark my 2500th DS posting by asking people the song which makes them more happy than any other tune. For me it is probably:

"Reach" by S Club 7

To be honest, I'm what you might describe as a miserable git.

I can't stand "happy" songs, they make me sick.

I'd rather wallow in something that some people might consider a bit dark or depressing, but that I would consider instead to be emotional.

That's what music is about though - something that connects with you on an emotional level, whether it be "happy" or "sad". Basically, I like sad songs rather than happy songs but other people will obviously differ.

*fashion crisis hits new york* by the Frank and Walters.

if you don't know it, trust me - its a song of such dizzying ludicrousness, frivolity and catchiness that its guaranteed to recover anyone from the depths of any despair.

slightly obscure this one, "Unconditional Love" by Donna Summer (around 83/84). Usually the presence of steel drums and Musical Youth on backing vocals would turn anyone off, but this somehow works. To be listened to when the sun is shining in the mornings.

Another happy song for me, played really loud is "Yes" by McAlmont and Butler, superb.

Im a bit like that too.

I prefer the sad, miserable and depressing songs too, though 'Spin' by Lifehouse has a rather up lifting beat to it.

Yep - I agree here. Although, I think maybe the music you listen to just reflects how you feel at the time.

Happy music -

Songs that make me happy are the songs that have good memories to go with them most of the time. I could listen to the saddest song ever and it'd still make me smile.

A happy song for me would be
N.E.R.D - Provider (zero 7 edit)

It's not particualarly happy, but it's a great song

Another that always makes me happy is CRW - I feel love (RAF Zone Edit). Brings back some absolutely great memories!

I have a few, including Reach by S Club 7.

Another one that springs to mind is 'Absolutely Everybody' by Vanessa Amorosi.
