Songs that make you happy! ...

[Martin Edison]

Started to feel bummed thinking of sad songs.
My Friday night would have gone into the toilet.

Off the top of my head, all GBV songs.

  Little Whirl
  Jar of Cardinals
  Don't stop now
  Best of Jill Hives

What am I showing off?  My music collection, or my happiness? 

I basically just cut and pasted a mix I've been listening to and made a couple of minor edits.

I thought you were showing off them fancy keyboarding skills.
Now that I know you cut and pasted, I take it back.

I actually liked your happy playlist.

You can tell that three of the biggest influences on my musical tastes are WFMU, this board, and Omar's Recidivism posts.
