Get Happy With These 15 Feel Good Hits


R. Kelly said it best, “What is it that can come and take away all your stress?”

The answer: Music.

It’s one of life’s most magical gifts. It transcends culture, language barriers, and has broken down racial barriers, uniting white and black music lovers during the Jim Crow era. Music also has the power to change your mood and studies show that happy music triggers good memories from the past.

In honor of International Day of Happiness, celebrate with happy music that will put some pep in your step. Whether you’re stuck at work or overwhelmed by the cares of life, this song list will help raise your spirits and get you through the day.
