Happy Music Mix?!?!?

(1/7) > >>

Spartan Pho3nix:
I'm looking for suggestions for a happy mix. Songs for a perfect 80 minute album of pure happiness. Basically Indie, Classic Rock, Hip-hop. Not too much into metal or anything heavy, but twee is good (for a happy mix? gotta be twee).

Storm Rider:
Magic Bus by the Who. This is not negotiable.

jcknbl:
Tullycraft- pretty much anything but I'm thinking of Stowaway and Our Days in Kansas

The Flaming Lips-anything, Yoshimi, A Spoonful Weighs a Ton, Buggin'

Architecture in Helsinki-Its Five, just about anything else

Anything by the Go! Team

The Thrills-Big Sur (which is their only good song so it won't be hard to find)

The Stereophonics-Have a Nice Day

Daft Punk-Digital Love

And finally and most importantly

Kylie Minogue-Love at First Sight

Also, I think you should inlude metal...at least I don't think I'm the only one who finds the raspy death metal screaming giggle-inducing.

Spartan Pho3nix:
Hey. No sarcasm here. lol.

I'm just saying it seems like there are a lot of people who like bands like Opeth and junk on this forum, and I don't appreciate that kinda stuff at all. I like your suggestions though. A+

Zaarin:
The Polyphonic Spree are almost frighteningly happy. Nobody should be that cheerful all the time.

Most of Primal Scream's Screamadelica is pretty happy, too (largely because most of the members of the band, Bobby Gillespie in particular, were fucked on E at the time: since then they've gotten kinda angry and bitter), though there are some more sombre songs.

Just about anything happy hardcore (well, duh, I suppose), but that's almost sickeningly saccharine and agonisingly girly. As someone somewhere (I think it might have been Ishkur's Guide to Electronic Music) said, "this stuff is so childish I feel like a pædohpile listening to it".

"One Nation Under a Groove" by Funkadelic, "Pocket Calculator" by Kraftwerk, "On the Tower" by Sondre Lerche and "24 Hour Party People" by the Happy Mondays (though, again, that's probably more "fucked on E" than strictly "happy") are also some suggested songs.
