Songs which make you feel happy

I think this is pretty self explanatory.

I guess I'll get things rolling:

Electric Light Orchestra - Mr Blue Sky
Panic At The Disco - Nine In The Afternoon
The Killers - Andy You're A Star
Franz Ferdinand - Ulysses
The Beatles - Hey Jude
Kanye West - Stronger
Blondie - Atomic
Feeder - Buck Rogers

Some of these are generically 'happy' songs, whilst others are pieces of music which I've come to associate with certain positive events/period of my life. I'm curious as to what other people's choices might be.

the DIO original was better but i prefer the KSE version (odd eh?)


i thought the Dio version absolutely sucked. i mean fair enough it was ok but it was completely boring next to KSE's cover (which i saw live BTW....... OMG WIN.)

DIO holy diver is good but not a happy song.
KSE holy diver is more amusing and interesting. also the video. i cant ever hear the song and think of the video.

Yeah from what I've heard from some friends KSE was better than DIO, but I don't know since I've got dialup and can't be asked to load up a youtube vid for 3 hours >_>

I know it's not a known artist or big name, but I do enjoy this one.
