You know how some pop songs make you wonder if you live on the same planet as the people who enjoy them? This song is that for me. :lol:

Re: Because I'm Happy

OP, haven't you ever felt so good, ecstatic, that you felt like a room without a roof (e.g., so much air & freedom that nothing could make you sad)? or a hot air balloon that could fly away and nothing could bring you down, ground you back to earth, because things were going so well and everything was fitting you like a glove or lifting you up out of this world? full & content? uncontainable joy? That's for the lyrics. Then there's the happy-go-lucky, upbeat beat & clapping that goes with that feeling. It's got a 70s vibe I think some people relate to also. I guess it's not for everyone, but what exactly don't you like about it? :shock: maybe you're not in that place right now? You will be one day & on that day, give it another go. Let it carry you off.................:RockOn:

I'm very content and I have the feeling you are describing almost daily, which is great. But I don't need someone repeating "because I'm happy" 1,000 times in 4 minutes to remind me :lol:... then again I'm not really a fan of any of Pharrell's (or whatever his name is) productions. Having said that, good for him he's found a niche that seems to be making him tons of $$$$.

Re: Because I'm Happy

Got it, you hate repetition. Normally I do too... I don't find this song too repetitive like in an "It's a small world..." way you might. I find it upbeat, positive, and kind of clever about a man in love. Set to dancing of happy children was nice on the awards show as well, I enjoy hearing & seeing it with dancers.

Maybe you have something against the word "happy" in general .... because it rhymes with sappy, pappy, lappy, etc. :?:

Re: Because I'm Happy

You know what really annoys me? People who write "having said that" in typing something to others. First off, you haven't SAID anything because we're not talking to each other.

Secondly, if I just read what you wrote,which obviously any reader of it would, you don't have to point it out in your next sentence.

Thirdly, it's just pompous.

Having said that, carry on. :HungOver: "Cuz I'm happyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy"

^Yet every second post is a diss on someone. Makes me wonder what really makes you you happy?

Re: Because I'm Happy

^exactly. i used to strive to feel "happy" but now the feeling is much deeper than simply "happy." Maybe the timing of this songs release is why I'm not happy to hear it :lol:.

Re: Because I'm Happy

I think cutting carbs has made me a bit cranky, I apologize for dissing on anyone.

Something happened yesterday that has me ticked off as well.

Re: Because I'm Happy

No worries - that's how it is for everyone... Some people login while in the shitiest moods sometimes, myself included. That's why it's best not to give too many fux about what is posted and just have fun. Some members are better at that than others you will notice :lol:. But I find it all entertaining :lol:.
