Happy Week

Right. That does it. So many of my friends, both on LJ and RL buds who read this blog, are having a really shit time of it at the moment, with crashed cars, burgled houses, deaths, health worries, finance worries, relationship problems, friendship problems and general stress... truly, this sort of shit shouldn't happen to such lovely people.

So, although I can't do anything about your circumstances, my chums, I am declaring this week to be Happy Week, and, capering jester of the online world that I am, shall be making various gratuitous posts sharing songs, vids, etc that just make me really happy in the hope that they cheer you up too.

Let's start off with a real classic.

Enjoy, mes amis.

Happy Week - Chiyya Chiyya

This came up on my MP3 on the way to the supermarket this afternoon and I decided it was definitely one for Happy Week. From what I remember of the film it's from (Dil Se) this is one really happy bit in an otherwise quite miserable film. Actually, I think this whole bit might be a dream sequence. Fuck knows what the song's about - for all I know, it's about having a good old bop on the roof of a steam train. Which, frankly, is as good a subject for a song and dance routine as any. Enjoy!
