We had the sad, now it's all about the glad!

Heard this randomly yesterday for the first time in yonks and it really brought a smile to my day.

Joey. Same sort of thing with me only the Gerri Thomas record.  I have the same regrets with my 1st real love. I took a friend of mine ( female  ) to the Casino and my girlfriend who was sat waiting for me on the stairs nr the top balcony.  She looked at me then burst out crying and run off before I could explain anything. April  1979  i never forget.   Only seen her once a year later as she drove past me. 

Would love to see her to explain.

Class tune.

It is also NOT included in this compilation (videoclip has the cover as background) 

 

 

if that dont make you smile nothing else will

Game players & in orbit allways bought me back up after the 4;30 lull , tho have never danced 2 the latter , just find it A bonkers record that I carnt help but like , 

Another one that always brought a smile to my face.

 

 

Always found this to be quite uplifting, great 'rallying call' intro, probably came across it first at the halcyon monthly all dayers at the Manchester Ritz in the 70's. 

 

Some brilliant choices above, Surprised no one has mentioned Eula Cooper on Supersound. Always does it for me.

I never thought I'd post an Anthony Newly "Show Tune" on here, but, it fits the category:

 

I'd love to have had someone with a voice like Carolyn to sing me to sleep at night, and wake me up in the morning!

 

This makes me feel happy, too.

 

This also makes me happy (although I'd have been happier to find a copy on Thelma 103, but I know that was reserved for a female single artist (Pat Thomas?).

Still as strong, still gives me goosebumps after nearly 40 years, that's value for money! 

Thinking back to Cleggy all dayers and the Mighty Bub play..

Happy days!

Back in '72, when I was taking my first real and regular grown-up steps on the scene, this was absolutely massive. I remember five tunes making a deep and lasting impression on me, when I visited the Orbit club, in Rhyl. Three have already been mentioned on this tread. Bobby Hebb's "Love,Love,Love", "Here I Go Again" by Archie Bell and the Drells, and Joy Lovejoy's "In Orbit". The other two could just as easily meet the thread criteria also. Prophets "I got the Fever", and Robert Knights "Love on a mountaintop". Tunes that make me smile every time I hear them. Happy days indeed.

An obvious one .... 

 

This one always has an uplifting effect ...  coz there's a halo around his head ... 

 

Wonderful, bet she had a huge grin on her face recording this!

Lovely lady. Glad she knows how famous she is now in TSWONS!
