Walking on Sunshine
Katrina and the Waves

I used to think maybe you love me, now baby I'm sure
And I just can't wait till the day when you knock on my door
Now everytime I go for the mailbox gotta hold myself down
Cause I just can't wait till you write me you're comin' around

(Chorus)
Now I'm walking on sunshine, whoa oh
Now I'm walking on sunshine, whoa oh
Now I'm walking on sunshine, whoa oh
And don't it feel good, hey, all right now
And don't it feel good

I used to think maybe you love me now I know that it's true
And I don't wanna spend my whole life just a waitin' for you
Now don't want you back for the weekend, not back for a day (no no)
I said baby I just want you back and I want you to stay

(Chorus)

Walkin' On Sunshine Walkin' On Sunshine (yeah)
I feel alive, I feel a love, I feel a love that's really real
I feel alive, I feel a love
I feel a love that's really real I'm on sunshine baby, oh
Oh yeah, I'm on sunshine baby, oh

(Chorus)

I say it, I say it, I say it again, now
And don't it feel good, hey, yeah now
And don't it feel good
Now don't it, don't it, don't it, don't it, don't it, don't it feel good
I say it, I say it, I say it again, now

(Repeat to fade)

This is California.

[tuvor]

It Could Be Sunshine by Love and Rockets

I'll trade you our last week of freezing weather and snow.

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

15. Well I'd do it for a vacation maybe

but not to live in it...I hate having to remember a jacket, an umbrella, a raincoat, rain boots....that's why I don't OWN any of those things.

[AverageJoe]

5. Rainbows

Rainbows shining on my shoulders
sunshine warming up my day
birds sing
and in the air the sound of spring
and in the wind the flowers bring
their presents to the day

Earth opens up its arms for me
when you get the feelin'
the feelin' everything's all right alright
and I want you to know
I love you so.....

"Rainbows"
by Dennis Wilson/Carl Wilson and
Stephen Kalinich

29. here's one called SoulShine ~ Gov't Mule.......

....always makes me feel better listenin' to it too!


Soulshine

When you can’t find the light
That guides you through a cloudy day
When the stars ain’t shinin’ bright
And you fill like you’ve lost you’re way
When the candle lights of home
Burn so very far away
Well you got to let your soul shine
Just like my daddy used to say

He used to say soul shine
It’s better than sunshine
It’s better than moonshine
Damn sure better than rain
Hey now people don’t mind
We all get this way sometimes
Got to let your soul shine
Shine till the break of day

I grew up thinkin’ that I had it made
Gonna make it on my own
But life can take the strongest man
And make him feel so alone
Now and then I feel a cold wind
Blowin’ through my achin’ bones
I think back to what my daddy said
He said “Boy, in the darkness before the dawn”

Let your soul shine
It’s better than sunshine
It’s better than moonshne
Damn sure better than rain
Yeah now people don’t mind
We all get this way sometimes
Got to let your soul shine
Shine till the break of day

Sometimes a man can feel this emptiness
Like a woman has robbed him of his very soul
A woman too, God knows, she can feel like this
And when your world seems cold
You got to let your spirit take control

Let your soul shine
It’s better than sunshine
It’s better than moonshne
Damn sure better than rain
Lord now people don’t mind
We all get this way sometimes
Got to let your soul shine
Shine till the break of day

Oh, it’s better than sunshine
It’s better than moonshne
Damn sure better than rain
Yeah now people don’t mind
We all get this way sometimes
Got to let your soul shine
Shine till the break of day

[PartyPooper]

7. I went to the dermatologist today, and he said to stay out of the sunshine

He biopsied some thingies on my arm. Icky pooh. But, I think it's all going to be okay. Just as long as I use sunscreeen!

Anyway, I know what you mean with this weather. I hate January and February in California.

It's so depressing! Put on an old Beach Boys Album! LOL.

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

30. Good idea...

thanks

[Syrinx]

9. here's one

Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
It's not warm when she's away
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
and she's always gone too long
Anytime she goes away

Wonder this time where she's gone
Wonder if she's gonna stay
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
and this house just ain't no home
anytime she goes away

And I know, I know...

Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
Only darkness everyday
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
and this house just ain't no home
anytime she goes away

[Syrinx]

13. Beatles

Good Day Sunshine, Good Day Sunshine, Good Day Sunshine

I need to laugh and when the sun is out
I've got something I can laugh about
I feel good in a special way
I'm in love and it's a sunny day

Good Day Sunshine, Good Day Sunshine, Good Day Sunshine

We take a walk, the sun is shining down
Burns my feet as they touch the ground

Good Day Sunshine, Good Day Sunshine, Good Day Sunshine

Then we'd lie beneath the shady tree
I love her and she's loving me
She feels good, she knows she's looking fine
I'm so proud to know that she is mine.

Good Day Sunshine, Good Day Sunshine, Good Day Sunshine

[Syrinx]

18. someone called JoJo

Mmm hmm
Ohh
Ohh oh oh
You'll always be my sunshine

Sunshine
You'll always be my sunshine
No one compares to you
Don't you go, don't you go nowhere (No)

You make all my dreams come true
(There comin' true, comin' true for me yea)

And thats why you'll always be my sunshine
My sunshine

When I see you
I have to stop to catch my breath, oh
Because it's somethin that you do to me
That I just can't express
And it may seem kind of crazy but it's true
Everything is all about you, yeah

Sunshine
You'll always be my sunshine (You'll always be my sunshine)
No compares to you
Don't you go, don't you go nowhere
You make all my dreams come true (They're comin true yeah)
And thats why you'll always be my sunshine
My sunshine

Sometimes it may rain
And sometimes it may pour
Oh yeah
But you always seem to bring me so much joy
People may not understand but who cares
You're always right there
Please don't go no where

And everytime I'm feelin lonely
Lonely, you're right there
And like an angel
You're always right on time
So glad you're finally mine

Sunshine
You'll always be my sunshine
No compares to you
Don't you go, don't you go nowhere
You make all my dreams come true (They're comin true)
And thats why you'll always be my sunshine (My sunshine, my sunshine)
Sunshine (You'll always be, you'll always be)my sunshine
You'll always be my sunshine
No compares to you
Don't you go, don't you go nowhere (Please don't, please don't go)
You make all my dreams come true (Stay right here)
And thats why you'll always be my sunshine

[PartyPooper]

20. Then there's that wonderful song from "Hair"

"Good Morning, Sunshine"

Sorry, I forgot all of the lyrics. But, it sure is pretty.

[Kenneth ken]

21. Just for you:

a song by John from Denver
(sung in my best scrod voice, if you remember Dregs & Vestiges from the original SNL)

Sunshine on my shoulders
gives me sunburn
Sunshine in my eyes

Sunshine on the water
looks so lovely
(orange) sunshine almost always makes me highhhhhh

(thankyew thankyew, I'm here all night. Tip your server)

[Syrinx]

22. The Corrs

Artist: The Corrs
Song: Summer Sunshine

Lyrics:


I feel it's changing, I stay the same
I'm... a solo cello outside a chor-us
I've got a secret,
It's time for me to tell that you've been keeping me warm

Just sweet beginnings and bitter en-dings
In coffee city, we borrowed hea-ven
Don't give it back, I've never felt so wanted
Are you taking me home?

You tell me you have to go...


In the heat of summer sunshine
I miss you like nobody else
In the heat of summer sunshine
I kiss you, and nobody needs to know

Now that you've left me, there's no retur-ning
I keep comparing, you're always win-ning
I try to be strong but you'll never be more wanted
Will you make me at home?

Don't tell me you have to go...


In the heat of summer sunshine
I miss you like nobody else
In the heat of summer sunshine
I kiss you, and nobody needs to know

Ya da... ya da... ya da

To sweet beginnings and bitter en-dings
In coffee city, we borrowed hea-ven
Don't give it back
Winter is coming and I need to stay warm

The heat.....


In the heat of summer sunshine
I miss you like nobody else
In the heat of summer sunshine
I kiss you, and nobody knows


In the heat of summer sunshine
I miss you like nobody else
In the heat of summer sunshine
I kiss you, and nobody needs to know

[GoddessOfGuinness]

23. Here comes the sun, here comes the sun,

And I say it’s all right

Little darling, it’s been a long cold lonely winter
Little darling, it feels like years since it’s been here
Here comes the sun, here comes the sun
And I say it’s all right

Little darling, the smiles returning to the faces
Little darling, it seems like years since it’s been here
Here comes the sun, here comes the sun
And I say it’s all right

Sun, sun, sun, here it comes...
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes...
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes...
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes...
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes...

Little darling, I feel that ice is slowly melting
Little darling, it seems like years since it’s been clear
Here comes the sun, here comes the sun,
And I say it’s all right
It’s all right

[catzies]

24. La Conchita mudslides mean I don't go to work until it's cleaned up

Not only has it been dark for five days, I've been cooped up in the house most of the time.

The cats won't go out, and they're stir-crazy too.

La Conchita is my commute. Those poor people.

[Syrinx]

25. Aerosmith on psychedelics (I could go on :)

I sold my soul for a one night stand
I followed Alice into wonder land
I ate the mushroom and I dance with the queen
Yeah we dancing in between all the lines

I followed daylight right into the dark
Took to the hatter like a walk in the park
But then I met her yeah she felt so right
No shadow the night yeah it was she

They call her sunshine
The kind that everybody knows
Yeah yeah
They call her sunshine
She's finer than a painted rose
yeah yeah
Sunshine
Yeah

Her kind of love is what I adore
What kind of trouble am I in for
My kind of heaven lies in hells back door
And I got more than I need

Cause I need sunshine
The kind that everybody knows
Yeah yeah
My sunshine she's finer than a painted rose
Yeah yeah sunshine yeah

I got the karma but it don't come free
I chased that rabbit up her bodi tree
That caterpillar's tryin to cop a plea
But the smoke ain't got nothing on me

I got to have my sunshine
The kind that everybody knows
Yeah yeah
Sunshine
Finer than a painted rose

Sunshine the kind that everybody knows
My sunshine she's finer than a painted rose
Sunshine

[bo44]

26. Here is my favorite sunshine song

walk along river sweet lullaby

I'm just walking down the road
early morining sunshine tell me all I need to know

Love my blue sky
love my sunny day
lord you know makes me high
when you turn your love my way
turn your love my way

[cestpaspossible]

27. Sunshine by Superbus

Oh please baby let me know how the sun shines in your eyes


J'ai pris de l'eau, mais j'ai pas la mer
J'ai pris le ciel, mais j'ai pas la terre,
Je t'attends lentement, ça je sais faire;
J'ai pris le vent, mais je n'ai pas d'air,
J'ai pris le temps et tout s'accélère,
Je t'attends lentement dans mon système solaire

Oh please baby let me know how the sun shines in your eyes
Oh please baby let me know how the sun shines in your eyes


J'ai pris l'orage, mais j'ai pas l'éclair,
J'ai pris la pluie mais sans le tonnerre,
Je t'attends lentement, ça je sais faire,
J'ai pris le sable, mais sans le désert,
J'ai pris le temps mais j'ai pas d'horaire,
Je t'attends lentement dans mon système solaire.

Oh please baby let me know how the sun shines in your eyes
Oh please baby let me know how the sun shines in your eyes

J'ai pris l'avant, mais j'ai pas l'après,
J'ai pris la porte mais pas la clef,
Je t'attends lentement et personne ne le sait.

Oh please baby let me know how the sun shines in your eyes
Oh please baby let me know how the sun shines in your eyes
Oh please baby let me know how the sun shines in your eyes
Oh please baby let me know how the sun shines in your eyes

[BurtWorm]

28. There's a bright golden haze on the meadow

There's a bright golden haze on the meadow
The corn is as high as an elephant's eye
An' it looks like it's climbin' clear up to the sky.

Oh, what a beautiful mornin',
Oh, what a beautiful day.
I got a beautiful feelin'
Ev'rything's goin' my way.

[hickman1937]

35. I love that song.

And I'm a very cynical person. Go figure.

31. Jonathan Edwards- Sunshine

Sunshine go away today
I don't feel much like dancing
Some man's gone, he's tried to run my life
Don't know what he's asking

He tells me I'd better get in line
Can't hear what he's saying
When I grow up I'm going to make it mine
But these aren't dues I been paying

(Chorus)
How much does it cost, I'll buy it
The time is all we've lost, I'll try it
But he can't even run his own life
I'll be damned if he'll run mine, Sunshine

Sunshine go away today
I don't feel much like dancing
Some man's gone he's tried to run my life
Don't know what he's asking

Working starts to make me wonder where
The fruits of what I do are going
He says in love and war all is fair
But he's got cards he ain't showing

(Chorus)

Sunshine come on back another day
I promise you I'll be singing
This old world, she's gonna turn around
Brand new bells'll be ringing

[Syrinx]

34. I like that song

Don't know why I didn't think of it. I think I'll listen right now. (mp3's are cool).

[DieboldMustDie]

32. Sunny Side of the Street

Grab your coat and get your hat,
Leave your worries on the door - step;
Just direct your feet
To the sunny side of the street.

Can't you hear the pitter-pat?
And that happy tune is your step!
Life can be complete
On the sunny side of the street.

Bridge:
I used to walk in the shade with those blues on parade;
But I'm not afraid -- this rover crossed over!

If I never had a cent,
I'd be rich as Rockefeller,
Gold dust at my feet
On the sunny side of the street.

[hickman1937]

33. Is this the one?

CALIFORNIA DREAMIN'

(Phillips-Phillips)

All the leaves are brown and the sky is gray
I've been for a walk on a winter's day
I'd be safe and warm if I was in L.A.
California dreamin' on such a winter's day

Stopped in to a church I passed along the way
Well I got down on my knees and I pretend to pray
You know the preacher liked the cold
He knows I'm gonna stay
California dreamin' on such a winter's day

------ flute ------

All the leaves are brown and the sky is gray
I've been for a walk on a winter's day
If I didn't tell her I could leave today
California dreamin' on such a winter's day
California dreamin' on such a winter's day
California dreamin' on such a winter's day

Maybe not.

[Ruffhowse]

36. "Sunshine on my Shoulders" by John Denver

37. "Sunshine Superman" by Donovan

[LoZoccolo]

38. "Steal My Sunshine" by LEN

It's on the Go soundtrack, and it's actually one of my favorite songs ever.

[msgadget]

39. Ain't No Sunshine, Bill Withers

Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
It's not warm when she's away
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
and she's always gone too long
Anytime she goes away

Wonder this time where she's gone
Wonder if she's gonna stay
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
and this house just ain't no home
anytime she goes away


And I know, I know...


Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
Only darkness everyday
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
and this house just ain't no home
anytime she goes away

[Philosophy]

40. "Sunshine" by Alice In Chains

(Actually this one will make you feel even sadder)

---------------------------------
Am I too contagious
Full of sick desire
Am I that I promise
Burning corpsed pyre

Then some dude came down to touch the Mother
Mother touched, and dude ain't here no more

Am I your reflection
Melting mirror smile
Am I worth the value
Do my love defile

Then some dude came down to touch the Mother
Mother touched and dude ain't here no more
Ain't no day the sun don't crack
Try brand some name across my back so you care?
Find someone to tell you

(CHORUS)
Sunshine...sweet love my labor
Don't mind...I don't care no more

Can you face the queston?
Is my soul entire?

(CHORUS)

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

43. Thanks everyone. I am going to go dream of shunshine now

[hfojvt]

44. Mr. Blue Sky by ELO

"Please tell us why, you had to hide away for so long.
Where did we go wrong?"

Of course, when you are in the North, you can relate to the words of Douglas Adams: "Several billion trillion tons of superhot exploding hydrogen nuclei rose slowly above the horizon and managed to look small, cold, and slightly damp... The sun struggled feebly with the mist, tried to impart a little warmth here, shed a little light there, but clearly today was just going to be another long haul across the sky."

[billyskank]

45. Don't blame it on the sunshine

Don't blame it on the moonlight
Don't blame it on the good times
Blame it on the boogie

[donheld]

46. The sun'll come out tomorrow

bet your bottom dollar that tomorrow
they'll be sun
just thinking about tomorrow
cleares away the cobwebs and the sorow
'till their none
when i'm stuck with a day that's gray and lonely
i just think of my chin and grin and say oh

CHORUS
the sun'll come out tomorrow
so you gotta hang until tomorrow
come what may
tomorrow tomorrow i love ya tomorrow
your always a day away

when i'm stuck with a day that's gray and lonely
i just think of my chin and grin and say oh

CHORUS
the sun'll come out tomorrow
so you gotta hang until tomorrow
come what may
tomorrow tomorrow i love ya tomorrow
your always a day away
tomorrow tomorrow i love ya tomorrow
your always a day away

[tjwmason]

47. From the Mikado

The threatened cloud has passed away,
And brightly shines the dawning day;
What though the night may come too soon,
There's yet a month of afternoon!
Then let the throng
Our joy advance advance,
With laughing song
And merry dance,

With joyous shout and ringing cheer,
Inaugurate, inaugurate their brief career!
With joyous shout and ringing cheer,
Inaugurate their brief career!
With joyous, joyous shout!
Inaugurate their brief career!



Not totally about sunshine, and even then in a more metaphorical sense, but perhaps a step above 'The sun has got his hat on, hi hi hi hooray'.

[SarahB]

48. "Sun is Shining"- Bob Marley

Sun is shining, the weather is sweet
Make you want to move your dancing feet
To the rescue, here I am
Want you to know ya, where I stand

(Monday morning) here I am
Want you to know just if you can
(Tuesday evening) where I stand
(Wednesday morning) tell myself a new day is rising
(Thursday evening) get on the rise a new day is dawning
(Friday morning) here I am
(Saturday evening) want you to know just
Want you to know just where I stand

When the morning gathers the rainbow
Want you to know I'm a rainbow too
So, to the rescue here I am
Want you to know just if you can
Where I stand, know, know, know, know, know

We'll lift our heads and give JAH praises
We'll lift our heads and give JAH praises, yeah

Sun is shining, the weather is sweet now
Make you want to move your dancing feet
To the rescue, here I am
Want you to know just if you can
Where I stand, know, know, know, where I stand

Monday morning, scoo-be-doop-scoop-scoop
Tuesday evening, scoo-be-doop-scoop-scoop
Wednesday morning, scoo-be-doop-scoop-scoop
Thursday evening, scoo-be-doop-scoop-scoop
Friday morning, scoo-be-doop-scoop-scoop
Saturday evening, scoo-be-doop-scoop-scoop

So to the rescue, to the rescue, to the rescue
Awake from your sleep and slumber
Today could be your lucky number
Sun is shining and the weather is sweet

(p.s. NSMA- It's a mess in Vegas too and our friend there is sick. I suspect further good vibes sent his way couldn't hurt. )

49. It's A Sunshine Day (Everybody's Smiling)

I think I'll go for a walk outside now,
The summer sun's calling my name, I hear it now.
I just can't stay inside all day,
I've got to get out, gimme some of those rays.

Everybody's smiling (sunshine day),
Everybody's laughing (sunshine day),
Everybody seems so happy today in the sunshine day.

Oooh. Can't you dig the sunshine?
Feel the sun and the rays.
Can't you hear it calling your name?

Repeat first verse.
