Is there any music that just makes you so happy and

you can't live without it?

Right now I'm listening to Led Zeppelin.

Robert Plant is singing about squeezing his lemon Yowza

I never get tired of the greatest Rock Band that ever lived and that's saying something from a Beatles devotee.

Because Celebration Day was the first thing that sprang to my mind as I was reading your thread title.

One of the happiest guitar solos in rock coming in right at 1:50

right after all the trippy theremin stuff, is my ringtone for when my wife calls.

The heartbreaker solo is for everyone else.

Except work - when work calls it's the Empire theme from star wars...

There's a lot of great stuff out there, from its very beginnings all the way up to today. There's something about it that just gives me joy.


Edited for clarity.

However, there is something about "Georgia On My Mind" by Ray Charles, that just does something to me. I cannot explain, but it takes me to such a happy place.

From the ages of 4 to 14.

Used to be such a nice area. Town had about 2 to 3 thousand people living there... Today there is over 30 thousand people, an extra zip code, and crime. Now when I say crime, when I lived there there was not one murder, not one rape, and maybe at most 3 or 4 assaults a year. Now they have at least one murder a year, 1 or 2 rapes every other year or so, and about 20 assaults each year. If you are looking at it as far as rate, it's not so bad, but we had zero and anything more than that is too much.

They were hit hard by the ression, at times unemployment was over 12%.

It made me quite sad when I went to visit my old house. The neighborhood is totally falling apart.

But, at the time, it was a little quiet slice of heaven. We lived in a house tucked into a corner of the neighborhood, pleanty of woods and swamp land (no alligators that far north) for a kid to play around in. You could go hours and not one car would drive by.

The smell of the pines in the fall... mmm.

Beethoven, his 6th symphony.

Mozart, just about all he did except opera.

And so on...
