Rock On by David Essex

Those are a few. Not sure about your taste in music, but I see my "good mood" music as the same thing as my "drunk music" and this is a partial list of my "drunk music"/"stoned music."

God, I hope I didn't embarrass myself too much with this list. :eyes:

8. good music!
NO ONE can embarrass themselves with taste in songs, just loving music a lot makes anyone very very cool :headbang:
I didn't have that Rock On song, I'm about to get it though.

11. I had the most fun listening to that song in the dark.
I would listen to that song for hours while I was playing with my remote controlled Black Firebird Trans Am with headlights on the floor of my room. It just fit the music to drive that car around in the dark to Rock On. I think that's why I associate it as happy music now. :)

4. What a Wonderful World -- Louis Armstrong
Nothing like it.

Another one: It's a Beautiful Morning...by the Turtles, I think. Always cheers me up.
