Speaking of "Happy", it was written by Pharrell Williams (a VERY talented young guy) for one of the great movies of all time, Despicable Me.
And one of the great lines from Despicable Me was when Gru was putting his adopted little girls to sleep. But first they needed him to read them a bedtime story. Being Gru, he said NO !!
So the littlest one says:
"Will you read us a bedtime story?"
"NO!!"
"Pretty please???"
"The physical appearance OF the please makes no difference. The answer is still NO"
Funniest line ever written for any movie since the beginning of time.
jerkison, i agree this is a GREAT track. about as good as a song gets
as far as me naming a best song of the decade, i can't. it's just too much to think about when you consider all the genres. VERY difficult to narrow it down.
with trying to determine best bands, its still difficult but more plausible.....but best song is damn near impossibe
@steve dude -- apparently, I'm out of the pop culture loop. I've only heard of one song on the list -- Blurred Lines -- and that reflected my desire to look at Emily Ratajkowski, Elle Evans, and Jessi M'Bengui daning around in the video.
My tastes in music actually tend toward classical, though I still listen to the music of my youth (the Dead, Allman Bros, etc. but I also dig punk).
But give me a good performance of Rigoletto any day over modern music.
"Trip the Darkness" by Lacuna Coil.
"Who?" they ask.
"Oh, I'm sorry, its an internationally famous ROCK band," I reply.
"Where they from?" comes the response.
"Italy."
"Oh, that explains why I've never heard of them" says the 19 year old dancer.
"Yep" I say, "that explains it."

Well, not really, but it was pretty good.
