Day 03 - A song that makes you happy
I'm Alive by The Hollies
I could have easily chosen any of the billion of Beatles song that make me happy, smile, jump up and down like a bunny on crack but this song says it all. I'm not one of those girls that listens to happy music on bad days, mostly you can read my mood by what I'm listening to but where this song is concerned, happiness just comes naturally, organically as if the music is changing to atmosphere. Like many other Brit bands of the sixties they hold a certain je ne sais quoi I can't stay away from. It can't be helped I have a room specially designed for English rock bands and each year I add square footage.
Now I can breathe, I can see, I can touch, I can feel
I can taste all the
sugar sweetness in your kiss
You give me all the things I've ever missed
I've never felt like this
I'm alive, I'm alive, I'm alive
I used
to think I was livin'
Baby, I was wrong
No I never knew a thing about
livin'
'Til you came along
What song makes you happy?

Oh... another good choice.

I'm going to go with one of Doctor Demento's classics, "I Want A Hippopotamus For Christmas" sung by Gayla Peevey.
It goes:
I want a hippopotamus for Christmas
Only a hippopotamus will do
Don't want a doll, no dinky Tinker Toy
I want a hippopotamus to play with and enjoy
I want a hippopotamus for Christmas
I don't think Santa Claus will mind, do you?
He won't have to use our dirty chimney flue
Just bring him through the front door, that's the easy thing to do
