190. Happy songs!

There are certain songs out there.  Of course, you are thinking.  There are angry songs, sad songs, love songs, mean songs, love songs, break up songs, and some more love songs.  The songs I want to talk about, though, are songs that make you happy.  So either their mood is happy, or maybe you just connect them to a happy moment for some reason?

I am rather unprepared for this discussion.  You know, I only have myself to go off of.  I could have done a little survey or something, but I just thought of this somewhat late at night while listening to a song that makes me happy!  So here goes.

The song, at least currently, that makes me happy is Season of Love by Shiny Toy Guns.  Now, you might not know this song.  I found it through the end of a Gossip Girl episode.  (To be specific, the ending of the Season 2 Finale.)  This is kind of a big deal, actually.

I am sure there are fans of the band that are angry at all us Gossip Girl watches saying "oh this song is so cool," while we don't even listen to the band.  I understand where they are coming from, but I don't have enough itunes money or time of my Christmas day time to check out the rest of the band.  Sorry.

As mentioned before, I found this song while watching Gossip Girl.  I am going to share some Gossip Girl information now, so skip if you'd like.  Basically all of season 2, I've been wanting Chuck and Blair to (finally) date.  Everyone knows they are the best couple of GG!  So they've come close to it in the season, but it's never actually happened.

You can bet that during the finale it finally happened.  It was the perfect scene, in my opinion at least.  Chuck apologized for not saying "I love you" back to Blair, and he'd even gone around Europe to get her presents!  It was sweet.  And then he said he loved her!  And smiled!  (Gosh, I love a Chuck Bass smile!)  And then they started kissing and he kept saying "I love you" while they were kissing and it was just a great Chuck and Blair moment.

(Another one of my favorite Chuck and Blair moments is when Chuck is standing near the edge of the roof and she gets him to come down and they are hugging and he apologizes, because he didn't care, but he knew that she cared.  Of course Jack Bass was there-he is so horrible-so that was a slight damper on the scene.  Now back to the topic!)

So during that scene, there is the song, Season of Love playing.  And then as the scene ended it got louder.  Basically there are parts of the songs where the chorus(?) is the band singing "love, love, love."  It's really nice sounding song, in my opinion at least.  And the other lyrics are really creative, and so the song in all is really nice.

Whenever I think or hear of the song, it makes me happy.  It's a bit sad, but seeing Chuck and Blair together finally makes me happy.  Like, two people finally worked out their problems and faced the fact that they are in love and did something about it.  And they are both obviously so happy.  It makes me just think of love.  The song and the scene.

Remember when I used to ask questions at the end of every post?  (That wasn't one.)  Well, I've got one to ask this time!  Maybe I haven't been asking because I didn't have anything to ask, or was worried no one would answer back.  So if you are reading this, be brave and reply!  Besides, it would mean a lot to me.  Unless it's mean...!

Q:  What is a song that makes you feel happy?
