Feel-good Northern

Posted

On another thread Netspeaky speaks of catchy tunes and Soul Smith has already done 'Mental' Nothern. So what about those really easy listening, melodic and downright happy tunes. Here is my nomination.: The Steinways. I would be interested in hearing some new records that had this feel-good quality.

Can only be one ultimate feel good northern: The Tams, "Be Young, be Foolish, be Happy". Or, as a Semitic friend of mine would insist on singing it, "Be Young, be Jewish, be Happy".

Could this be another thread? "Alternative lyrics that stick in the mind"?

Ime gonna Binge/Velours!

Freddie Waters - Singing a new song (Curtom or UK Buddah) uplifting, happy good time music, that needs playing out to the masses. :thumbsup:

A song about loss. But as is often the case with Soul music, it is nevetheless delivered with a jolly, jaunty air.
