Month of Music Meme - Day 21 — A Song That You Listen To When You’re Happy

[csberry]

Admittedly, there is a whole collection of 70's bubblegum pop that I could use for this entry. Everything from Alan O'Day's "Undercover Angel," to Starlight Vocal Band's "Afternoon Delight," to most anything by ABBA jumps to mind when I'm happy. But over the past few years, the song that is most likely to get selected first is Paper Lace's "The Night Chicago Died." I can't start that song without chanting along, "Daddy was a cop...on the easssstside of Chicago. Back in the U.S.A. Back in the bad old days."

Happy Songs . . .

[(Anonymous)]

Well, I was happy until you mentioned certain songs, when I realized I have all of them on 45s, purchased when they were first released; yes, even the Paper Lace song I bought in the 5th grade. Now I'll have to pull out that "I Feel Love" 45 and play it. No, I can't; I don't have a 45 adapter for my turntable. Jesus, Mary, and Joseph, I'm such a dinosaur.
