the rolling stones - happy - colorized - stereo edit IIc
Edit 2c for headphones, September 2022/January 2024. Dubbed video, that's obvious: a seventies song in a sixties video... This song is quite loud & massive on the album "Exile On Mainstreet" (this one's from the Japanese mini lp remastered TOCP-66452). Well, this edit shows it can be even massiver, louder, happier...
This was the first Stones song to chart with Keith Richards singing lead. (France #5, Canada #9, USA #22.)
Keith Richards: "That's a strange song, because if you play it you actually become happy, even in the worst of circumstances [...]"; well, in these (and all) times we can use some music to give us happy feelings...
An interesting interview on the album is here:

HAPPY
(jagger/richards)
well I never kept a dollar past sunset
it always burned a hole in my pants
never made a school mama happy
never blew a second chance, oh no
I need a love to keep me happy
I need a love to keep me happy
baby, baby keep me happy
baby, baby keep me happy
always took candy from strangers
didn't wanna get me no trade
never want to be like papa
working for the boss ev'ry night and day
I need a love to keep me happy
I need a love, baby won't ya keep me happy
baby, won't ya keep me happy
baby, please keep me
I need a love to keep me happy
I need a love to keep me happy
baby, baby keep me happy
baby, baby keep me happy
never got a flash out of cocktails
when I got some flesh off the bone
never got a lift out of lear jets
when I can fly way back home
I need a love to keep me happy
I need a love to keep me happy
baby, baby keep me happy
baby, baby keep me happy
