<p>That would be correct!</p>
<p>Well, Quasi what music genres are you interested in? Hard-rock or anything?</p>
<p>"how in the world do you POST A NEW THREAD??? IM NOT SEEING A BUTTON/LINK ANYWHERE to post a new thread!!! " </p>
<p>If you look at the top of the page and look below the blue bar where it says “FAQ.” There is a “post reply” button. When you are in a forum, not a thread, that option changes to “post thread.”</p>

<p>A lot of the older music has happy/cheerful songs. I listen to a lot of music from the 60s and 70s.</p>
<p>I dunno what genre I like! I mean, I’d listen to anything really, except for, well, death metal. (Sorry, lol). I mean, I’ve got stuff by Colbie Caillat on my iPod as well as stuff by LP. And Eminem. And Coldplay. And random dancey Bollywood songs. And the Beatles. And…yeah, I could go on.</p>
<p>But I don’t necessarily want happy LYRICS. Just the kind of songs that make you happy. Like Mika’s Happy Ending, for example. </p>
<p>This is getting complicated. Heh.</p>
<p>I would have to suggest 80s music then:></p>
<p>Like what? I’ve never really heard any 80s music.</p>
<p>Go to itunes, then type in 80s music and you will get results. Michael Jackson is also good:)</p>
<p>I have been repeatedly told that I have weird taste in music (when I was little my parents always to play serious oldschool stuff, so it’s what I still listen to), but here are people I listen to:</p>
<p>I think they range from the 40s to 80s</p>
<p>The Temptations
Smokey Robinson and the Miracles
Billie Holiday
The Band
The Chambers Brothers
Michael Jackson
Earth Wind & Fire
Eddie Kendricks
Jimi Hendrix
The Gap Band</p>
<p>Strangely, Mika’s “Happy Ending” makes me sad. But he has got a new single out, “We Are Golden”, which might make you happy as well.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Of this list, the only person I’ve heard of is Michael Jackson. What type of music do these people play?
I’ve been looking for a new genre to try out.</p>
<p>It’s kind of a range: some are rock, some are “hippie”, some are soul, some are blues, some are jazz.</p>
<p>Oh cool, I’m going to go see if I can find some stuff on YouTube with any of their music.</p>
<p>go to last.fm itll track what music you listen to and recommend some bands/artists according to your taste.</p>
<p>Listen to Oasis. Not Wonderwall; its their worst song.</p>
<p>I agree, Mika and the Beatles are pretty upbeat. Vampire Weekend is cheerful and it’s good to listen to in the summer.</p>
<p>When it’s over- sugar ray
Use your love- the outfield</p>
<p>Couple forgotten songs That I rediscovered</p>
<p>be by common</p>
<p>Third Eye Blind. Their 2 biggest songs are so happy you’d never they were about smoking pot all day. Songs are Semi-Charmed Life and Blue :)</p>
<p>Ben E. King always gets me in a good mood… and I second/third the Beatles.</p>
<p>Muse and Chevelle make me happy, too, but I’m not sure it’d be described as uplifting. May I also suggest turning on your local pop radio station?</p>
