Dream Theater's Surrounded always makes me happy. Not prog- but like 80s power ballads bring a smile to my face ha ha.

I've been on a Samla Mammas Manna kick all week so bear with me - but even so, this track is bound to make you smile:

This thread's been hanging around for a while but I don't think anyone's mentioned Peter Gabriel's Solsbury Hill.

Another good one from the ol' MO: Lotus Feet.

Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

Isn't "Solsbury Hill" about his leaving Genesis?  Was that a happy circumstance?

Silly me, I thought it was about a boy reuniting with his father.  And I do think PG leaving Genesis was a happy circumstance.  Genesis had a few good albums after that and Peter did even better.

It's not prog, but the happiest song I can think of is "Burning With Optimism's Flames" by XTC.  Great song to go with your morning coffee.
