This gives me such an indescribable feeling. Woe and mirth, regret and pride, delight and disgust - indivisible. Is this how being a cenobite feels?
Happiness was her truth 😔
But not having a working brain, apparently. You gotta be real dumb to post shit while you're driving.
It was the all-caps. She had to take both hands off the wheel to capitalize the whole word. tsk tsk

Man, I fucking hate that song. "Happiness is the truth", god, what pseudophilosophical bullshit. It really is the manifestation of all that thoughtless feel-good philosophy pushed by hyper-captitalist dickheads.
I've heard Pharrell agrees with this read. From what I've heard, he was contracted to write a song for something and the execs kept turning him down, so in his frustration he wrote the most shallow cheerful song he could. He thought they'd recognize that and reject it to, but they loved it.
I was surprised by this because it sounds like one of those internet stories that isn't true, or was morphed so many times after multiple retellings. But a quick search shows me that this is completely true:
https://www.npr.org/2024/10/07/nx-s1-5001928/pharrell-says-his-hit-happy-came-from-a-sarcastic-place
WILLIAMS: Well, after nine times of, you know, nine nos, like, nope, doesn't work, doesn't work, doesn't work, doesn't work, doesn't work, doesn't work, doesn't work, then I had to kind ask myself a rhetorical question. How do you write a song about someone that's so happy that nothing can bring them down? I'm paraphrasing. And the song ended up being the sarcastic answer to that.

Never forget that he also shares responsibility for 2013’s 'Blurred Lines' by Robin Thicke.
I forgave this song for existing once it gave us Weird Al's Word Crimes.

Happy by Pharrel vs Happy? by Mudvayne
We could try to whoop him, but he’s got a truncheon, a handgun, and a small Christmas ham hidden in his hat and he knows how to use them. They make him happy, you see.

That hat is actually an entire Arby's sign.

i wonder what kind of song would capture the cultural zeitgeist now, if he were to write it...
because yeah it definitely would not be 'happy'
How about "It's The End Of The World As We Know It"? :P
I've seen the future brother, it is murder.
