Default Happy SP songs



I hadn't listened to this song in years and it totally made me smile just now.





I love this song, and I also have a fond memory of it from the 6/27/07 show in Asheville (this video is not the gig I saw)... they closed with this song, after a really great show and it was like perfect. That's my favorite pumpkins show, even though I saw three before 2000... it was just amazing and the crowd was awesome as well.


I realize a lot of the SP 2.0 could be called 'happy', so post those if you must.

I've always found Mayonaise to be kind of happy....like the peace that can be found with realizing your own limitations.

Thumbs up

Sure, I agree with that

For that matter, Luna.

With Every Light, Perfect, That's the Way.

Although with the exception of stoned pre-gish songs, all SP1 material is bittersweet at best.

I was thinking Beautiful, but it's a bit too deranged, desperate, and dark to be considered happy by me.

i give Freak credit for being a post-2000 'happy' song that doesn't get too vomiting rainbows sappy

rocket, cherub rock, hummer, luna [i guess. definitely some sadness in there though], smiley, crush, snail [almost], frail and bedazzled, la dolly vita, jesus loves his babies, where's vince, blew away

also i always found the more cathartic type songs to be sort of uplifting/therapeutic/whatever.

1979 and perfect are definitely sad songs.

why not?
cherub is defiant and triumphant [especially the music], to me that translates as positive/uplifting
la dolly vita presents an extremely positive adoring picture of the titular chick.

on that thought add blue to my list
