Happy Music

We all want to be happy ... right? Well, I am of the belief that music can sometimes drag you out of the abyss of a bad mood. So, what I am asking you to do is this ... My kind, gentle, loyal readers: please post a comment with your happy music. It could be one song. It could be a whole bunch of them. I don't care. I am looking for new happy songs for my iPod's "Happy Music" list.

I know, for example, Mimi loves Elvis. And I am certain at least one of his songs puts a smile on her face. I'd like to know what that is. Kerber always has a ton of songs and great ideas. Kelly has already given me two discs worth of stuff. Jason, if you're out there, perhaps you have some. Leigh Ayn? Aunt Vicky? Penny? Andre? Carlo? Roma? Nana Jan? Gigi? And...

Ye, who have not been named. Step up to the plate and post your songs.

Here is my "Happy Music" list in the order they appear on my iPod:

• "Allegria," The Gipsy Kings
  
• "More than a Feelin'," Boston
  
• "Got to Be Real," Cheryl Lynn
