So, it seems like everyone's been upset lately. Everybody's just kind of down for various reasons. Lots of people in the department are sick. End of the semester is stressing everyone out. Bad shit is happening to good people. It generally kind of sucks.
So, I went through iTunes and picked out all of the songs that make me smile and bounce and laugh and dance the most. 43 of them, to be exact.
I now present to you a ginormo music dump of songs that make me happy. Check under the cut.
Songs of Happy Rainbow Sparkliness!
Here's info on what you're getting:
"1985," Bowling for Soup
She was gonna be an actress/She was gonna be a star/She was gonna shake her ass/On the hood of Whitesnake's car
"Fidelity," Regina Spektor
I hear in my mind/All of this music/And it breaks my heart
"Full Speed Ahead," Pain
And all the boys say/"Hell yeah!"/It's okay/We got a tab at the bar that we ain't gonna pay
"Guilty Pleasure," Cobra Starship
Oh, brother, spare us all/'Cause we don't care any more/We just wanna get down on the floor
"Louisiana Saturday Night," Benjy Davis Project
That's the last thing I recall/Hell, I heard I had a ball
"Someone to Love," Fountains of Wayne
Don't give out/Don't give up/One of these nights/You might find someone to love
"These Words (I Love You, I Love You)," Natasha Beddingfield
Read some Byron, Shelley, and Keats/Recorded it over a hip-hop beat
"I've Got a Theory/Bunnies/What Can't We Face?", Once More With Feeling (the Buffy musical)
What can't we face if we're together?/What's in this place that we can't weather?
"Jeremiah Was a Bullfrog," Creedence Clearwater Revival
If I were the king of the world/I'll tell you what I'd do/i'd throw away the bars and the cars and the wars/And make sweet love to you
"Mr. Blue," Catherine Feeny
Mr. Blue/Don't hold your head so low that you can't see the sky/Mr. Blue/It ain't so long since you were flying high
"Gin 'n' Juice," Phish
I got bitches in the living room gettin' it on and/They ain't leavin' 'til six in the mornin'
"On the Radio," Regina Spektor
You laugh until you cry/You cry until you laugh/And everyone must breathe/Until their dying breath
"Pizza Day," the Aquabats
So in poser-punker fashion, we just mooched off all the kids/And lived off eating candy bars and bags of nacho chips
"Big-Ass Rock," The Full Monty
I stuck my finger in a socket once, hurt real bad! ... but it didn't kill me...
"City Hall," Vienna Teng
Ten years waiting/But it's better late than never/We've been told before/I can't wait one minute more
"Instant Pleasure," Rufus Wainwright
I don't want somebody to love me/Just give me sex whenever I want it
"Breakfast At Tiffany's," Moxy Fruvous a capella cover
Choombay, choombay, chicka-chicka choombay, choombay, choombay...
"If I Had $1000000," Barenaked Ladies
If I had a million dollars/I would buy you some art/A Picasso or a Garfunkel
"Nobody Else But You," A Goofy Movie
Like we're thrown in the drink/Like we're tossed outta town/But when I start to sink/Hey, I'd rather go down/With nobody else/But Y-O-U
"I Could Be In Love With Someone Like You," Jason Robert Brown
I just left a relationship with a lovely girl named Alyssa Levine/She was really great/It was all my fault/I just got upset/'Cause she slept with my brother
"In Parentheses," Charlotte Martin
I've had bullshit from a man/But found exactly who I am
"My Alcoholic Friends," The Dresden Dolls
I'm/Counting back/The number of the beast/'Cause six/Is not a pretty number/Eight/Or three/Is definitely better
"Zero to Hero," Hercules
He has the moxie, grace and spunk/From zero to hero/A major hunk
"King of Spain," Moxy Fruvous (live version)
Let's make Friday part of the weekend/And give all of these people chocolate eclair
"U + Ur Hand," P!nk
Keep your drink, just gimme the money/It's just you and your hand tonight
"Sound of Your Voice," Barenaked Ladies
The saying goes there will be other dances/This little song is about second chances
"All That I Want," The Weepies
In houses lights are glowing/Likewise in your eyes that find me here/With all that I want
"Dirty Business," The Dresden Dolls
Lift your hats/Off to the check-out girls with tattooed backs/They'd make an angel's skin crawl
"America Has Spoken," Patton Oswald
Until they invent the lunch gun, I will have the failure pile in a sadness bowl.
"Minority," Green Day
One light, one mind/Flashing in the dark/Blinded by the silence/Of a thousand broken hearts
"Teenage Riot," The Ataris
Cops show up/As usual/To try and ruin our fun/It's time to tell 'em all to fuck off!
"The Greatest Man In America," Moxy Fruvous
This is a song about a great American. ... why are you laughing? They exist.
"Spiderman," Moxy Fruvous a capella cover
Spiderman, Spiderman, friendly neighborhood Spiderman
"Accidentally In Love," Counting Crows
Come on, come on/Turn a little faster/Come on, come on/And the world will follow after
"So Yesterday," Hillary Duff (don't judge)
You made my mind up for me/When you started to ignore me/Do you see a single tear?/It isn't gonna happen here
"A Joyful Noise (Reprise)," Bat Boy: The Musical
So like the prophets were told/In the days of old/Make a joyful noise, my soul
"Oi to the World," The Vandals
Oi to the punks/And oi to the skins/But oi to the world/And everybody wins
"Elusive Butterfly," Geoff Bryd
Girl, you're twenty-seven shades of grey/But you appear in technicolor the next day
"Salty Dog," Flogging Molly
You drank with demons straight from hell/You almost nearly won as well
"Through the Night," Outlaw Star theme song
Ai dake, yume dake, kimi dake (only love, only dreams, only you)
"Stacy's Mom," Fountains of Wayne
I know it might be wrong, but/I'm in love with Stacy's mom
"One Angry Dwarf and 200 Solemn Faces," Ben Folds Five
Look who's telling who what to do/Kiss my ass/Goodbye
"Girl At The Rock Show," Blink 182
Seventeen without a purpose or direction/I don't know why you want a fucking explanation
Enjoy. And cheer up, my loves. :3
Don't try
To look so wise
Don't cry
'Cause it's all lies
Don't dry
With fakes or fears
'Cause you will hate yourself
In the end
