Sung by Cass Elliot, this song sometimes gets overlooked but I've always felt it is very uplifting.

Songs that Make Me Happy

U2 - Beautiful Day Black Eyed Peas - I've Got a Feeling
—Guest Looking for Songs

Plus, there was the Bee Girl...

I'm partial to "No Rain" by Blind Melon, which might be the catchiest tune of the 1990s.

My "Happy Place Song"

I Can See Clearly Now by Johnny Nash. I'd like to hear it every morning. How about Up On The Roof?

Adding to the happy list

I love "Nina" by Comedy of life. Always cheers me up :) Its got that ultra happy feel to it ! Also , Every time I hear the starting music of 'walk of life' by Dire Straits it makes me smile !! And my final addition to the list is 'The deeper the love' by whitesnake. Essentially a love song but it makes my spirits soar.....!!!!!!!1
