--Don't Stop Me Now- QueenMy top ten has to include some Beatles & Stones ("In My Life," "Happy"), just about any Steely Dan (Donald Fagen's "New Frontier," about early-60s bomb shelter vigor and optimism, is my go-to song whenever I need a quick hit of happy), John Prine ("Spanish Pipedream")... Bottom line: all brains may be more-or-less the same, when it comes to the neurophysiology of music, but minds differ. And that's good!
--Dancing Queen- ABBA
--Good Vibrations- Beach Boys
--Uptown Girl- Billy Joel
--Eye of the Tiger- Survivor
--I'm a Believer- The Monkees
--Girls Just Wanna Have Fun- Cyndi Lauper
--Livin' on a Prayer- Bon Jovi
--I Will Survive- Gloria Gaynor
--walking on Sunshine- Katrina and The Waves
In CoPhi Blake and Axle did a nice Harry Potter report, though they didn't mention my favorite Dumbledore quote: "Happiness can always be found, if we just remember to turn on the light." And maybe they'd agree with this one too: “Ah, music. A magic beyond all we do here!”
