Took me ages to think of one! LOL As I said, the Blues makes me happy. 
There was a song by an Australian group years ago called Frente. They had a song called Accidentally Kelly Street. It was such a bright and happy new sound at the time but when I read some comments by people on the computer about the meaning of the lyrics, it apparently isn't so happy at all. Weird.

Lara,
"Walking on Sunshine" is nice and energetic.
Yes, some songs have the bouncy, fun rhythm but profoundly sad words. I wonder how the creative process for that works for them. Which Frente song was it?
Here is Styx: Come Sail Away

Actually, I am not sure if this is sad or happy. . . . maybe it depends on what is going on when one is listening.
