Fun Stuff > BAND
I need happier music.
leftandleaving:
Music is best when it comes from somewhere that inspires passion. I find music inspired by happiness tends to be... well, hokey. That said, I spent one summer listening almost exclusively to: Nada Surf's The Weight Is A Gift, Maritime's We The Vehicles, and Harvey Danger's Where Have All The Merrymakers Gone, which aren't necessarily happy records as much as they are fun, poppy, and not miserable. Definitely recommended on all three.
Also, music that makes me happy isn't always music that IS happy. Listening to McLusky Do Dallas, or Death Grips' Exmilitary, or Trap Them's Darker Handcraft all make me feel like jumping and punching myself in the face, but, in a great way.
Tulpa:
This song has had the ability in the past to make me incredibly happy, but the effects are having a diminishing return. //www.youtube.com/watch?v=y0XfNy5XI-A
Asterus:
Happy, or Energetic? I've kinda split them into separate groups, based on their effect.
Happy = Reminds me of past Feels or Awesome or makes me smile like an idiot, like Shio, or anything by Bowling for Soup
Energetic = ... Makes me energetic. See Night of Nights or U.N Owen was Her? (Sorry, I've got Touhou on the brain)
Though I guess most of my suggestions aren't to taste for people that listen to actual bands
(Probably going to modify the hell out of this later and put in an actual list.)

Okay, so a quick list of songs that I can't whistle because they make me laugh:
I Don't Wish You Were Dead Anymore
I'm Gay
Sekai Ni Hitotsu Dake no Hana
Ai Kotoba
Tah Tur Yoo (ถ้าเธออยู่)
And songs that would make me bounce off the walls if that pesky gravity didn't keep interfering:
Nyan Nyan Service Medley
Nuclear Fusion
Psychedelic Souljam
Libera Me From Hell
Muzik

KMFDM has some fun stuff. Strut comes to mind readily.
