I have never had much interest in music that is considered 'popular'. My poor students will ask me if I know of any recent music. "Yes," I say, "I just bought Marillion's new album." They are deeply confused by this.
I care little for the popular drama. Yet Pharrell's "Happy" has become my Stoic anthem for the year. It tells me everything I need to know, and it does so with class.
The man's taste in hats is more than sufficient ;-)
"Here come bad news, talking this and that
Well, give me all you got, don't hold it back
Well, I should probably warn ya, I'll be just fine
No offense to you, don’t waste your time
Here's why...
Because I'm happy
Clap along if you feel like a room without a roof
Because I'm happy
Clap along if you feel like happiness is the truth
Because I'm happy
Clap along if you know what happiness is to you
Because I'm happy
Clap along if you feel like that's what you wanna do."
