I'm looking for the happiest and most upbeat music possible. This is more or less what I'm going for. Any suggestions?

I'm looking for the happiest and most upbeat music possible. This is more or less what I'm going for. Any suggestions?
J-pop is where it's at, btw, but here are my own favorites:
Utada Hikaru - Keep Tryin'
Village People - YMCA
Moldy Peaches - Anyone Else
Wicked - Popular
Freezepop -Science Genius Girl
Uptown Girl - Billy Joel
Lily Allen - LDN
Regina Spektor - On The Radio
Smile.dk - Butterfly
Anything by Morning Musume, especially THE MANPOWER!!!, Jyosei Kashimashi Monogatari, and Koi no Dance Site (SEXYBEAMMM!!!!)
And even though no one will believe me, I think Rick Astley - Never Gonna Give You Up is one of the most upbeat songs ever.
The Nature Anthem by Grandaddy is all I can think of at the moment.
Jean-Jacques Perrey - Brazilian Flower
Jacques Brel - Madeleine. Just don't look at the lyrics. :(
Of course I've got Rick Astley already... Whenever somebody asks me to burn a CD, I tack it on at the end to Rickroll them =P
And I've had Science Genius Girl stuck in my head since I watched Kerrigan's Big Invention. Took me forever to find out what the song was...
Well, I'll look into all of the songs mentioned so far... Thanks ^_^
*EDIT* Osnap, I need to get Hare Hare Yukai!
type into google:
"happy hardcore" or just "happycore"
you're welcome.
Smile by Brian Wilson
Thunder, Lightning, Strike by The Go! Team
Here are some good upbeat and happy songs:
- Alphabeat - Fascination
- Junior Senior - Move Your Feet
- Alphabeat - 10,000 Nights of Thunder
- Junior Senior - Can I Get Get Get
- B-52s - Love Shack
:bigsmile:
YouTube - Samurai Champloo - Barracuda: by The 5,6,7,8's
The Barracuda by the 5, 6, 7, 8s
I first discovered this watching Fast and Furious Tokyo Drift. Great song.
Some more Tiny Tim for you. :p
YouTube - FFVIII ~ Tiptoe Through The Tulips With Me
The Titan Go King's should do the trick.
I love that song xD
This.
Anything else by the pillows works, too.
Marisa Stole the Precious Thing
One of my favorite IOSYS songs. It's also one of their most well-known ones.
Alright, some of these aren't as manic as some posted in the thread so far, but they never fail to make me feel awesome.
ReMix: Final Fantasy 'Warriors of Light' - OverClocked ReMix
ReMix: Marathon 'Neo-Pacificist' - OverClocked ReMix
ReMix: The Last Ninja '8-Bit Kamikaze' - OverClocked ReMix
ReMix: Zillion 'InsideTheRoadhouse' - OverClocked ReMix <- Giant win, never fails to work me up and make me air guitar like a spaz. Has the highest play count on my iTunes of anything. Yes, even more than Still Alive (Which is second place, with 51 plays :P)
ReMix: ICO 'Save Me (OCR Edit)' - OverClocked ReMix
ReMix: Secret of Mana 'Dragon Song' - OverClocked ReMix
ReMix: F-Zero 'Mute Radiology' - OverClocked ReMix
ReMix: Space Harrier 'Disco' - OverClocked ReMix <- Actually basically any Space Harrier track or remix will fit the bill, it had one of the best soundtracks ever tbqh.
ReMix: EarthBound 'Bus!' - OverClocked ReMix
ReMix: Xenogears 'Chu Chu's Flight' - OverClocked ReMix <- Takes a bit to get going, but once it does... whoa. This can bring tears to my eyes, such is its power and optimism.
And later, if anyone likes, I can spam you with further awesome OCRemix tracks! :jess: Hope at least a couple of things there fit the bill.
Since we're on a FF forum, I'll make a couple of recommendations accordingly:
FFVII: Yuffie's theme
FFX-2: Rikku's theme
Kingdom Hearts: Hikari (the song's bouncier in Japanese, I find)
Sunshine lollipops and rainbows...
dutch export to the max !!
have you ever been mellow
Oh monkeys, I forgot completely this one xD.
Toy Soldiers by Martika always makes me happy.
But I am a sick bastard.
Whatever song that they use on The Simpsons (it's an original) during the land of chocolate scene where Homer is eating all the chocolate always gives me a smile. They use it in other scenes too.
EDIT: I found it in this YTMND.
BTW, this is how we awesome.Quote:
