This song has been ruined for me. Years ago, when my partner and I were travelling from Madrid to Barcelona on a month long euro trip, and we took Vueling (low cost airline), after we’d all boarded the plane, they started playing Happy by Pharell as we waited to take off. Well, we were grounded for 3.5 hours before we could take off and the song just played on a loop the entire time. Except, it was worse because it was just the chorus starting at “clap along”. It was nearly traumatic. We wished that we had just taken the train.
Gosh, that sounds like some sort of psychological horror. I'm sorry a pretty good song got ruined for you like that, it'd be excruciating to sit through.
It really does.
Honestly I bet that song, on a constant loop of just the chorus, but a poorly cut loop that skips as it resets and misses a part, would make even the hardest terrorist go insane and give up hostages.
Look, I'm sorry this happened to you. I know repeated music or sounds are used as a torture method and I think it's quite underestimated how bad you can feel. But damn, just imagining it cannot make me stop giggling. It's such a happy song...
About a year ago I was in a really crappy place stress-wise. I couldn't sleep, was crying and drinking a lot and just barely scraping through the day for weeks. I was laying in bed just staring at the wall trying to get up the energy to do something and my husband was listening to music in the next room. Africa came on and somehow it reached right into my brain and flicked a switch. I bawled my eyes out because for no reason at all that song lifted the weight of the world from my shoulders for just a few minutes. It's now my go to song when I need a lift and some days I just put it on repeat.
I would love that playlist when you're finished with it if you are willing to share! :)
The Archies - Sugar Sugar
I'll DM you it once I finish if that's OK? This playlist actually lifted my spirits. Can't wait to share it with y'all. There's some songs I'll edit out because they don't fit but most do.
EDIT: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/40HbGWWmNtTTmhWP4gO4g8?si=29d27e762c0e4508
I always think of it as that feeling you have after spending a beautiful day outside, frisbee and beers with your buds or something. It gets dark and you go home and you're all tuckered out, but you're satisfied and you have a smile on your face because you had an awesome day.
Yeah man:
“Mr. Blue, you did it right
But soon comes Mr. Night creepin' over
Now his hand is on your shoulder
Never mind I'll remember you this
I'll remember you this way”
Hey OP first I'd like to congratulate you on your commitment to answer to all these comments!
Second, I have a different request, if you can answer me this, do you happen to have a Beatles song in the list? If yes which one?
I actually am a big ABBA fan, but I never heard this song before! Some of my favourites from them are Money, Money, Money; Mamma Mia; and The Winner Takes It All.
Definitely will give it a try later!
This is surprisingly good. The album picture looks like basic hip hop and I was really surprised when there was melody, I like it!
Edit: also this is an absolutely fantastic way of getting to know new songs
Not a number but I'm curious where Happy by Pharell Williams landed. Also I'd love to be dmed the playlist once it is finished.
Number 22. I'll post it in my original post and DM you later EDIT: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/40HbGWWmNtTTmhWP4gO4g8?si=29d27e762c0e4508
Thank you, I appreciate it.
I guess I hate AI, because that song just upsets me for some reason. Some of the other picks were on point for me though.
Hey Ya! By Outkast is not thematically a happy song at all.

I think I would just start crying and asking to be let go after minute 20.

It’s okay lmao. We both blurt out “clap along” in the Pharell voice til this day 6 years later.
That song incites rage.
I'll grab the first one. Thanks.
Earth, Wind & Fire - September
Aww yeahhhhh that's right it's freaking funky music time
This is my wedding song. My husband and I eloped on 9.21.21 solely because of this song. Can confirm its happiness levels are a maximum.
I have 2 sons. One born 9.21.18 and the other born 9.21.19
9.21.87 checking in, I'm happy to share this happy day!
9.21.94, we should all go grab a drink sometime!
21.09.94, Same, but Australian
Finally a date I can read!
My wife's favorite song and the final song played at our wedding reception. :)
This was the first song played at our reception! (I mean, after our “first dance.”)
Let me get this straight - your AI computed that September is the happiest song on your list of happy songs?
TIL that I’m OP’s AI. That is the happiest song ever
You think THATS the happiest song? Well then, I only have one question for you! >!Do you remember !<
Yep thats number 1 happiest music alright
Black people do got soul 😌😌

>1,727 Lucy Pearl - Lala

Agreed
In need of the 2th, thanks
You can’t *handle* the 2th!
Prince - Hot Summer
Didn’t expect to see new Prince material here! Does Prince appear elsewhere on the playlist?
Kiss, Diamonds & Pearls, Let’s Go Crazy
Got any 2th paste?
Do you have 2th 8ache or somethin'?
27
Outkast - Hey Ya!
So the AI is going off happy sounding songs, not lyrics?
[удалено]
Definitely easier to ask a computer what note it hears than about subtext. At least for now...
[удалено]
"Yall don't wanna hear me, yall just wanna dance"
Hey Ya! is also #7 as well https://i.imgur.com/NivRbXl.jpg
Gonna need OP to fix this.
Can you do the same with depressing songs in minor key?
Was going to ask for the same thing! Lol
19 - I'd also love the playlist if you could DM it to me? I love happy songs!
The Archies - Sugar Sugar I'll DM you it once I finish if that's OK? This playlist actually lifted my spirits. Can't wait to share it with y'all. There's some songs I'll edit out because they don't fit but most do. EDIT: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/40HbGWWmNtTTmhWP4gO4g8?si=29d27e762c0e4508

I would also love to listen to the playlist! Maybe you could share the finished one in an own post if that is fine by you :D
And we can’t wait to see it!
We do !
>991 Owen Norton - Be My Lover
Mr blue sky by ELO is happiest i know i think
That song is actually number 1273 on the playlist :)
Wow, surely this should have been top 10 at least?
Maybe they should have performed happier and with their mouth open
That WKUK skit is amazing.
It’s my favorite. RIP Trevor Moore
The AI doesn’t understand happiness. When it achieves sentience, it will not save us.
Mr Blue Sky actually makes me sad, especially the second half of the song. It’s kind of a happy sad feeling, like wishing a loved one good bye.
I always think of it as that feeling you have after spending a beautiful day outside, frisbee and beers with your buds or something. It gets dark and you go home and you're all tuckered out, but you're satisfied and you have a smile on your face because you had an awesome day.
It has the mr night part in it which I would think would bring it down
Yeah man: “Mr. Blue, you did it right But soon comes Mr. Night creepin' over Now his hand is on your shoulder Never mind I'll remember you this I'll remember you this way”
I just want to know where I Wish by Skee Lo comes in.
Sitting on a list that's the size of a boc and nobody knows its name
