"Here Comes the Sun" by The Beatles
The Beatles are back and they're here to make us smile. "Here Comes the Sun" is a salute to the joys of summertime and the revival of nature. Its gentle melodies, cheerful lyrics and evergreen appeal will complete any happy playlist. And let's be honest... The Beatles will never make us frown (Yoko Ono and John Lennon debacle aside).
"Walking on Sunshine" by Katrina and The Waves
If there's a more popular song for commercials that still gets us smiling, we'd like to hear it! Personally, this song has a special place in our hearts and always manages to lift our mood. Turn up the volume and get ready to strut your stuff - this 80s classic always succeeds in making us feel on top of the world.
"Beautiful Day" by U2
When the March weather doesn't live up to expectations. And instead of sunshine you get humidity, rain and win. There's really on one solution to perk you up - throw "Beautiful Day" by U2 on the speakers. This modern-day rock song is a perfect mix of inspirational lyrics, captivating melodies and elevated rhythms - just the thing for a pick-me-up when the day calls for it!
"The Time Warp" from The Rocky Horror Picture Show
Happy songs are essentially fun songs. And when it comes to fun songs, it's difficult to go past The Rocky Horror Picture Show.
