100 Songs That Will Make You Smile (10-1)

During this countdown, I have been releasing ten songs at a time that I think will make you smile. I have ranked them and the ones most likely to make you smile will be released last. Let's look at which songs have appeared so far before we get into the Top 10.
100-91
90-81
80-71
70-61
60-51
50-41
40-31
30-21
20-11

10. Hakuna Matata – The Lion King
We have discussed this song before and it fits perfectly in this countdown. The easiest way to smile is to have no worries. Fantastic song.

I don't think Journey realized how big this song was going to get. It also seemed to have somewhat of a resurgence around 10 or 15 years ago. People started listening to it a lot more again. Eventhough this song was older than some of the people at parties in college, I heard this song at 95% of the parties I have ever been to.

8. Something Beautiful - Needtobreathe
This was another one of mine and Jenna's songs. It is the best one by Needtobreathe and if you have been paying attention to this countdown, that means a lot. These guys are one of our favorite artists if not our very favorite. Great band and great song.

7. Sweet Child Of Mine – Guns N’ Roses
This song is the best by this band in my opinion and it isn't really close. It always puts me in a fantastic mood. Especially when I think of my sweet child. Another great opportunity to smile is when you think of this song being sung in Step Brothers like the photo above.

6. When You Wish Upon A Star – The Disney Theme
The official theme song of Disney. When you hear it, you think of Disney World or Disney Land depending on where you live. Everybody smiles when they think of those places.

5. Don’t Worry, Be Happy – Bobby McFerrin
This song is very self explanatory.

4. On Top Of The World – Imagine Dragons
This song is the happiest by Imagine Dragons and that is saying something. This band is pretty positive. Great band and great song.

3. Happy - Pharrell Williams
A lot of people were probably expecting this song to be number 1 and it definitely could have been. It is simply fantastic and I am glad that it has been so inspirational. I just couldn't put it above my top 2, but have no problem if its your #1.

2. Smile – Uncle Kracker
This song is so fantastic. It also happens to be mine and Jenna's song. We danced to it at our wedding so it probably holds a little extra weight to us. However, we liked it and smiled to it long before that happened. Now, you will too.

This song had to be number 1 on the countdown. It is the name of the blog after all. This song serves as a revamp for the blog that my beautiful wife has recently upgraded. She wants this blog to be inspirational, uplifting, and helpful. This whole countdown was meant to do that as well and we always try to keep it positive (when possible). More about that and this song can be found here. We both hope you enjoyed this countdown and look forward to what is to come.
