Happy songs
Non-sports post.
Poz’s list.
Just off the top of my head, I was thinking “I can see clearly now”, “Celebration”, “Lean on me” (1980s version), “Sexual Healing” (1990s version), “Here comes the sun”, “You Can’t Always Get What you Want”. I intersect on 2 out of 6 (the last two). Seeing that we’re the same age, it’s interesting that we intersect on the songs that were recorded before we were born. So, the songs we grew up on, we didn’t intersect on. But, on the classics, we did.
As Poz said, these lists are very individualized. You can’t criticize any such list, as you are really going to be criticizing a person on a personal level.
