How about some happy, upbeat music?

[username sucks]

Hello, fellow Escapists! How has your day been? Good? Bad? Meh? Well that won't matter anymore, because this thread is going to make you have a good day. I hope it will, at least.

Okay, now to the actual topic. As the title implies, I want some recommendations of some happy, upbeat music. You may want to ask what genre, and I would simply reply that I do not care. Rock, pop, jazz, classical, rap, or dubstep; if it has good vibes or whatever you want to call it, you should post it on this thread. Allow me to give a few examples of what I'm looking for.




That's all you're getting from me. I'm asking you for recommendations, after all.

Your turn, Escapists!

 

[Aerosteam]

Spoiler: I unironically adore this song.

AUTOPLAY, *****.​

Some people think it's annoying. Maybe they're right. I don't though, I love singing along to it.

 

[Elfgore]

Damn, you already put down Owl City. I was gonna post Fireflies by them...

Spoiler: I'm doing it anyway!

I'm sure you already know the song, but it's one of my favorites to cheer up to.

Spoiler: Hands Like Houses always cheers me up!

This song always makes me think about the good times I've had with my friends throughout the years. Doing the stupidest of shit. I'm smiling just thinking about it.

And that's about all I got... damn my music library is lacking in upbeat songs.

 

[000Ronald]

I don't know that I have...quite what you're looking for, specifically. But I'm willing to help out a bit.

Spoiler: I think you'll recognize this one

Spoiler: Might not know this one

Spoiler: This is one of my dad's favorite songs

Spoiler: And for the road, something that appeard in my 'You Might Like this list one day

Hope that helps!

I got a good one it is a cover of Maxine Nightingales 1975 Right Back Where We Started From by the early 2000s singing group Cleopatra from the greatest to video Disney sequel ever Extremely Goofy Movie.

Here's a UK/Happy Hardcore mix I did! It's happy and is music.

Same with me, which is exactly why I needed to make this thread! And really, this site needs to cheer up a bit.

Hope that helps!

It isn't really my kind of music, but it does help! This thread isn't just for me, it's for the whole site. Thank you!

 

[Barbas]

This one has a nice buildup. Or, if you feel like skipping ahead, the fun really begins at 11:32:

Spoiler: 1812 Overture.

I got this one from the trailer for Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel!:

Spoiler: Come With Me Now - Kongos.

This one is good for sword-fighting on pirate ships:

Spoiler: Infernal Gallop.

 

[Antari]

Busy day, so all you're getting is one.

Spoiler

 

[The White Hunter]

*ahem*

This has been in my head for 3 days since it was on the morning show on Planet Rock when I got up.

 

[Mr Fixit]

Love this one, know I'll have it stuck in my head for awhile.

Spoiler

Listening to 311 always makes me feel better.

Spoiler

And a couple more just because.

[JoJo]

Been listening a lot to this recently:

Spoiler

UK entry to this year's Eurovision, unfortunately it didn't go down in Europe as well as it did with me.

 

[V da Mighty Taco]

Gonna repost this song that I use earlier in a thread. It's certainly cheering my ass up after dealing with the GG thread all night.

Spoiler: The Happiest Song in the World!

Also, does Metal Gear Rising's soundtrack count as happy?

 

[Lunar Templar]

I find the lack of Mako disturbing ....


there better

 

[username sucks]

That's it! Keep 'em coming, people!

Also, does Metal Gear Rising's soundtrack count as happy?

As much as I love the soundtrack for that game, it's not exactly what I'm looking for in this thread.
...
Ah, screw it. Post whatever you want!

Whatever I want, hmm? In that case...

Spoiler

Seriously though, Rules of Nature is freakin' awesome, as is It Has To Be This Way. Non-pony versions of both are below.

Spoiler

Here's another very lax, upbeat, yet hilarious song as well. It gets a bit disturbing at parts, but it just so catchy with that self-proclaimed "chilled out tune".

Spoiler

There was a song I really was wanting to post here, but for the life of me I cannot remember what it was. When I do remember it, I'll try to come back to post it here.

Captcha: "oh hai"

 

[Ten Foot Bunny]

Ooooh, I love fun musics! However, I'm sure most of you have never heard a vast majority of these songs... my music collection is massive, full of stuff most people find weird.

(Sorry for lots of songs. Music is kind of my first love in life!)

Spoiler: The Beatles - Why don't we do it in the road?

Spoiler: Tenpole Tudor - Swords of a Thousand Men

Spoiler: The Who - Barbara Ann (Seriously, this is funnier and better than the Beach Boys' version!)

Spoiler: They Might be Giants - Doctor Worm

Spoiler: Weird Al - Dare to be Stupid

A couple older tracks, and a novelty song for good measure.

Spoiler: Huey Piano Smith & The Clowns - Don't You Just Know It

Spoiler: Bev Harrell - What am I Doing Here With You?

Spoiler: Tommy Steele - I Puts the Lightie On

UK punk of the '70s variety

Spoiler: X-Ray Spex - Oh Bondage, Up Yours!

Spoiler: The Cure - I Dig You (Yeah, really! A HAPPY Cure song from the band's early years)

From the bizarrely eclectic side of my music collection:

Spoiler: Princess Chelsea - Monkey Eats Bananas

No happy music list is complete without some great ska...

Spoiler: Big D and the Kids Table - Noise Complaint

Spoiler: Suburban Legends - I Want More

 

[DANEgerous]

Seriously I got in a car wreck a guy punched me in the face 3 times and I dropped all charges. This album is so happy it is what come to mind when I literally forgave someone of criminal assault, in fact it is kind of this whole album you will find it if you search the title on Amazon.

Spoiler: This one always manages to put me in a good mood as well.
