and "Smile" by Uncle Kraker comes on. This song makes me smile. What songs make you smile?


You're better then the best
I'm lucky just to linger in your light
Cooler then the flip side of my pillow, that's right
Completely unaware
Nothing can compare to where you send me,
Lets me know that it's ok, yeah it's ok
And the moments where my good times start to fade

You make me smile like the sun
Fall out of bed, sing like bird
Dizzy in my head, spin like a record
Crazy on a Sunday night
You make me dance like a fool
Forget how to breathe
Shine like gold, buzz like a bee
Just the thought of you can drive me wild
Ohh, you make me smile

Even when you're gone
Somehow you come along
Just like a flower poking the sidewalk crack and just like that
You steal away the rain and just like that

You make me smile like the sun
Fall out of bed, sing like bird
Dizzy in my head, spin like a record
Crazy on a Sunday night
You make me dance like a fool
Forget how to breathe
Shine like gold, buzz like a bee
Just the thought of you can drive me wild
Ohh, you make me smile

Don't know how I lived without you
Cuz everytime that I get around you
I see the best of me inside your eyes
You make me smile
You make me dance like a fool
Forget how to breathe
Shine like gold, buzz like a bee
Just the thought of you can drive me wild

You make me smile like the sun
Fall out of bed, sing like bird
Dizzy in my head, spin like a record
Crazy on a Sunday night
You make me dance like a fool
Forget how to breathe
Shine like gold, buzz like a bee
Just the thought of you can drive me wild
Ohh, you make me smile

Another instant smiling song is "Haven't Met you Yet" by Micheal Buble.
 

"The Boy Does Nothing" -Alesha Dixon
"lollipop" -Mika
"Say Hey" -Michael Franti
 
Anything by Daughtry!! I LOVE DAUGHTRY and their music brightens my day.
 
"Haven't Met You Yet" Michael Buble.

and

okay, I am almost 34 and I HATE to admit this.....

"One Time" by the Biebster (Justin Bieber). There's something about the way the song is composed that swell my heart when the bridge comes on ("She makes me happy. I know where I'll be, right by her side, 'cause she is the one") Something about a little 13 year old (or however old he was when he recorded that) singing his little heart out and full of innocence singing about puppy love, just makes my heart swell. It's on my workout mix.

Sometimes I can hate a song by it's lyrics, but love it because of the composition or meledy. Many rap songs come to mind in this penomenoa (sp?)
 
Alex Van Halen Drum Solo--Hot for Teacher--1984. The only concert I regret not going to when I had the chance. :thumbsup2
 
I Have Friends In Holy Spaces - Panic! At The Disco.

It's mostly this part: "Take a chance, take your shoes off, dance in the rain
Yeah, we're splashing around and the news spread all over town
I'm not complaining that it's raining I'm just saying, that I'd like it a lot more than you think if the sun would come out and sing with me."







And New Perspective by Panic! At The Disco just cause I like that song.

Me too. Reminds me of the total wonder that is in DS's and DD's eyes every day, and how blessed I am to have DW as my soul mate. Helps to keep me young at heart by living life through the kids for the 2nd time. When all that matters is the beauty of the day or the next baseball game, without being tainted by bank bailouts, bill payments, or stuff that just really doesn't matter all that much. :goodvibes
 
"Under Control" - Parachute
"Free Falling" - Tom Petty
