I was informed today by the person running my volunteer camp this year that I need a positive song.

I have a huge song list on my Itunes, but I also would like to hear some of your suggestions. Please let me know what you like.

It can be old, new, or from a musical.

Thanks!

I immediately thought of this one:

Sunshine, Lollipops and Rainbows by Leslie Gore

Sunshine, lollipops and rainbows,
Everything that's wonderful is what I feel when we're together,
Brighter than a lucky penny,
When you're near the rain cloud disappears, dear,
And I feel so fine just to know that you are mine.
My life is sunshine, lollipops and rainbows,
That's how this refrain goes, so come on, join in everybody!
Sunshine, lollipops and rainbows,
Everything that's wonderful is sure to come your way
When you're in love to stay.
Sunshine, lollipops and rainbows,
Everything that's wonderful is what I feel when we're together,
Brighter than a lucky penny,
When you're near the rain cloud disappears, dear,
And I feel so fine just to know that you are mine.
My life is sunshine, lollipops and rainbows,
That's how this refrain goes, so come on, join in everybody!
Sunshine, lollipops and rainbows,
Everything that's wonderful is sure to come your way
'Cause you're in love, you're in love,
And love is here to stay

How about the Hokey Pokey

You join hands and stand in a circle and sing.
Ya put your left foot in,
ya put your left foot out,
ya put your left foot in and shake it all about
Ya do the Hokey Pokey and ya turn yourself around
That's what it's all about.

then you do the right foot etc.

You look really young so didn't know if you knew this one or not.

"you are my sunshine". I sing it all the time at work and with my DGD. She got me a mothers day card that plays it because it is our song.
