Everytime this songs play, unconsciously they just create a smile in my face.
16. McFly - Love is Easy
This song obviously makes me happy, the music is pretty ear-catching and the lyrics just show you how exquisite your surrounding if you are in love.
15. Devendra Banhart - Lover
" Well, I wanna be your lover". This 6 words from Venezuelan - American singer made my day.
14. Cat Steven - If You Want To Sing Out, Sing Out
This song makes me feel free and remind me that i afford to do all of the things that i want in this "hideous" world.
13. Joni Mitchell - Big Yellow Taxi
Hey "you don't know what you've got ‘til it's gone". I feel energized while listening to this song and eager to create justice in this world. (plus Hahahaha)
12. Bobby McFerrin - Don't Worry Be Happy
Since i get stress easily and sometimes overthinking, this evocative but simple lyrics "In every life we have some trouble, when you worry you make it double, don't worry, be happy" assist me to reduce my stress.
11. The Crookes - Backstreet Lovers
This jangly guitars and pop melodies successfully cheer me up.
10. Karen O - Strange Love
Typical consolation song, "When there's beauty on the inside, the outside there's nothing to change". Bullshit but always works.
9. The Cribs - Chi-Town
This song is totally distinct from the other songs. This garage rock band song may not be as sweet as the other songs but the lyrics make you feel that you are the sweetest person they've ever met in their life and yet you will "eat cookies and cream from the store at the end of the street" with them. (Trust me, it is not over exaggerating statement).
8. MXPX - Sweet Sweet Thing
Well, i think i don't need to reveal why this song can make me smile, from the title it is obvious, right?
7. Matt Costa - Sunshine
Sunshine (literal meaning) and Matt Costa deserve to see a smile in your face.
6. Hall and Oates - You Make My Dreams Come True
Remember the scene (500 days of Summer) when this song played and tom danced in the park? That scene was pretty much describe how i felt when i listened to this song.
5. The Kooks - She Moves In Her Own Way
Just move in your own way and Luke Pritchard will love you.
4. Mew - Beach
It is sweet outside, where it seems magical and if nothing wokrs, we'll do nothing. Nothing to lose.
3. Beach Boys - Wouldn't It Be Nice
This song will lead you to imagine what sort of nice things that you will do in the future with your spouse and i assume people love to plan this thing (since i did,sometimes). Thank you beach boys for helping us arrange this "future-action" before we sleep.
2. The Monkees - I'm A Believer
Try to find out the lyrics by yourself and you will figure out why this song make me (and probably you) smile. P.S: Don't blame me if you get addicted to this song (well maybe you won't).
1. The Pains of Being Pure at Heart - Everything With You
My favorites song ever from The Pains but well it's not the main reason why this song precisely make me smile. The sound is, typical indie pop, sweet and soft plus the lyrics is so heart-warming.
"I'm with you and there's nothing left to do
Tell me it's true
I'm with you and the stars are crashing through
Tell me it's true, I want everything with you"
When i listen to this song, i feel the music supports the lyrics, it creates a splendid circumstance when "strange teenager, waiting for death at 19" and he/she knows that there always be someone (whether friends or lovers) who stays with he/she even if the stars crash through. That's why i put this song in the first rank. Well, i hope you can understand since it's arduous to visualize the feeling.
So, what songs that always make you smile?
