99.999 times out of 100, I'm with her. Sad songs seem to plumb the deepest darkest part of my soul to an extent that "happy" songs almost never reach...they're mostly sap, like painting a happy face on a sucking chest wound will somehow save the patient...

Wow...

Did I ever lay on the mixed metaphors with that last sentence...that said, there is one happy song that my toes find irresistible to tapping along, every time I hear those three simple chords in the intro...I know, it's pure fluff, & I love it. (Maybe it's something about the singer Katrina, in the video she's not just another anorexic punk grrl spilling her angst all over...she's real, & she convinces me that she might really be Walking On Sunshine
