Happy Arena Songs

(Is this the right forum for this?)

I have been thinking (and listening) lately.
I discovered that "Climbing The Net" is a very happy song (musically, I don't know about the lyrics...).

Are there any other happy Arena songs?

"I Spy" also doesn't seems very dark. Rather happy than dark.
"Double Vision" (despite the lyrics) This song seems very happy too.
"Welcome to the Cage" of course.

Do you think I'm right?
And are there any more?

Appelmoes??

I find the second part of Jericho very uplifting.
For some good reading visit:""Fluffy Kittens of DOOM"!

"Jericho! I'll bring those walls right down on you!"
"Gotta turn the tide against you, gonna make a private revelution!"

Yeah, that's a very happy part. (Again, not lyrically, but musically)

I mean uplifting like: Someone is very down, everthing and everyone is working agains him, but then he/she stands up and makes a stand. That very positive I think.

Yeah, I understand that. I wasn't being ironic there, if you thought I was. ;D

I think a song about John's bike would fit better in a Kino/The Urbane song.

Ehhmmm... serious?

I don't think this belongs in the 'Happy Arena'.

It must be difficult for Arena to come up with some happy songs. :D

What about "Riding the tide"

Crying VII seems more 'anthem - like' to me.  (If that's the right expression...) ;)

For what it's worth I would have to totally agree, happy and uplifting!

I enjoy myself tremendously when the music is not uplifting or joyful. Arena, specifically. There's a thin line between happy and silly, sort of...

Agreed, that's why I usually don't listen to the radio.

But somehow, Arena's happy songs are still good. And often it is a 'seems-to-be-happy-but-listen-carefully:-it-isn't-happy' song.

I agree.  It seems that most songs that are happy are not uplifting they are just too goofy.

Could very well be that, too.

Although I generally like cheesy music.

Must be a reason for that... 8)
