Happy was played at our wedding in 2014. My husband passed away 2 years ago from cancer, but, Listening to this helps me remember him and the happy times we had together❤️

I would totally have put "Can't stop the feeling" in the list... It make me smile and happy every time I hear it😁

Dancing Queen one of the most memorable in my opinion ABBA songs. I used to listen to this on repeat with my sis when we had the CD player working while we had the ABBA collection. It's still there after all these years

I remember my sister and I were at a Temptations concert and we wanted a cigarette so badly. She said, "Let's wait for a bad song and we'll go to the lobby for a smoke ", and then looked at each other like, "Yeah, right. Like the Temptations ever sang a bad song". We waited for a song we didn't know all the lyrics to and joined a crowd of smokers in the lobby. When the first seven notes of My Girl started, everyone in the lobby silently looked at each other, threw their cigarettes and stampeded back into the theater! One of my best concert memories!

I'm a little disappointed that Bee Gees "Staying Alive" wasn't mentioned...

But it's hard to just pick 20 songs.

Back in the day, my boyfriend and I, a couple of dedicated hippies, lived in an apartment building right above a neighbor who didn't want us there so she played James Brown records 24/7 to annoy us. We used to be very careful to look disgruntled when we walked by her apartment to make sure she would never figure out how much we liked James Brown. We put a big mattress on our floor so she wouldn't hear us dancing to her music right above her

Boston - More than a feeling.
Turn it up in my car with the sunroof open and it always makes me happy - no matter how bad I’m feeling.

B52’s “Love Shack” is a great sing along, feel good. Really, there could be countless HM’s in this list.
