<p>plus my all-time fav - mc hammer : i like big buts</p>

<p>A couple of these might not be true “Happy Songs” but they all make me happy =).</p>

<p>One of the greatest songs ever:</p>

<p>Buffalo Springfield - For What It’s Worth</p>

<p>And 4 others:
The Byrds - I Wasn’t Born to Follow
Joe Walsh - Life’s Been Good
Phish - Chalk Dust Torture
Pink Floyd - High Hopes (Yeah, it’s Pink Floyd, but most people haven’t heard this one, it’s off of The Division Bell)</p>

<p>Oh yeah, one more. The greatest blazed song ever, but awesome in general too.</p>

<p>Led Zeppelin - No Quarter</p>

<p>Iron Maiden - Transylvania
Janice Joplin - Summertime
Yngwie Malmsteen - Brothers
M2M - Don’t Say You Love Me
Vangelis - Fifa 2002 Anthem
Kind of strange but my broad taste of music</p>

<p>NO QUARTER! great song</p>

<p>1) Blue Shades - Frank Ticheli
2) O Magnum Mysterium - Morten Lauridsen
3) Red Oyster Cult - Guster
4) Galop from 'Cherymushki" - Dmitri Shostakovitch
5) Steve’s Last Night in Town - Ben Folds Five</p>
