OK, songs that make me smile.....hmmmmm. Too many to list here, but I digress! According to someone who isn't normally associated with anything having to do with music, Neuroscientist Dr. Jacob Jolij, calculated a formula that combines lyrics, tempo, and key, to determine what constitutes a song’s feel-good nature. He then put together what he thinks are the top 10 songs in history that make us happy. Drum Roll, Please:

1) 'Don't Stop Me Now - Queen

2) 'Dancing Queen' - ABBA

3) 'Good Vibrations' - The Beach Boys

4) 'Uptown Girl' - Billy Joel

5) 'Eye of the Tiger' - Survivor

6) 'I'm a Believer' - The Monkees

7) 'Girls Just Wanna Have Fun' - Cyndi Lauper

8) 'Livin' on a Prayer' - Bon Jovi

9) 'I Will Survive' - Gloria Gaynor

10) 'Walkin' on Sunshine' - Katrina and the Waves

I don't know about you, but I feel like dancing! Feel free to add in some of your own personal 'Happy' songs, ya'll!
