What's that song that always makes you smile?

My theme song....

 

there are quite a few songs that i like this way. what keeps me liking them in this way is that i don't hear them all the time. so it's still fun when i do hear them. to wit:

this for everything reasons:


this too.


this because it's entirely insane.
one of those endless cheesy clips for a classically post-abba abba song.
but once the song finally starts---at about 1:45---well....



what's going on in this clip? why are all those mean people throwing snowballs at mylene farmer? why does that result in her getting arrested? why does one event follow another here? why does the clip have nothing to do with the song? why is this song so awesome?

the lyrics, mostly, they say:

and this:



is brilliant. especially the lyrics, which you see.

 

It's not always a good happy-to-be-here smile, but...

 

For the sake of Toadies songs..



some of my friends from Texas would play this song after a night of debauchery. Being they're a Ft. Worth band and all.. it wasn't uncommon. Supposedly Possum Kingdom is about the lake of that namesake and it's been rumored for a LONG time that it's a breeding ground for vampires..hence the song. Anyway, Tyler is creeeeeeeepy but I had fun with those peeps so it does bring a smile.

The guy crashing through the walls and such in the Tyler vid looks like a carbon copy of Plan9

 

Two country songs that make me laugh heartily:

 

Men At Work, the KINKS, Weird Al, Alice Cooper.... anything by them especially on thge radio because it is so hard to find radio stations that will play them.

Of course Napolean XIV's they're coming to take me away



And Joshepine' XVs sequel I'm happy they took you away......

 

Makes me so happy!!!



:-( I miss the Sun. Stupid Oregon.

Songs I heard on Dr Demento growing up on Sunday nights listening to WNCX in Columbus.

 

Tra la la!

 

sad news.
this song always makes me feel happy.

 

indeed....

that woman had some pipes....

now, see if you can't smile to this one:

 

I'm 16, I have a 1962 Cutlass, 8 track, ripped out the rear speaker and put in some Pioneers, it's summer, 100 degrees, no air-conditioning, my fro is blowing in the wind, volume as loud as possible, I drive by the house of this girl I have a crush on, and this song is playing (studio version):

 

Van Morrison - Brown Eyed Girl (1967)
"Brown Eyed Girl" is a song by Northern Irish singer-songwriter Van Morrison, written and recorded in 1967.


Talking Heads "Burning Down the House"


The B52's - Love Shack

There are a ton of songs that for me are endorphin-inducing. Here are three from the 60's through 80's.

 

The Pogues, Tuesday Morning
