I have a playlist! It's called "Rejoice!" And it gets a lot of play. You probably know a lot of these well already, but in the name of completionism I'll just share the whole thing

"Rejoice Greatly" from The Messiah / Jeanine de Bique sings it in rehearsal

"Ode to Joy"

"How Great Our Joy"

"Rejoice, the Lord is King"

This setting of Psalm 100

This Jubilate Deo setting

Robert Hugh's arrangement of "How Can I Keep from Singing?"

Ola Gjeilo's Gloria

Also worth adding:

"Cut to the Feeling, Carley Rae Jepsen

"Starlight," Taylor Swift

"The Analog Kid," Rush

The Broadway Actors' Fund "You Can't Stop the Beat" that they did virtually at the beginning of covid

(And lots of others for this second set, this is just where my head went)

Mutuals, what are some of the most joyous songs you know, of any genre?

(Don’t overthink. I’m not literally looking for THE most joyous song you have ever heard at any time ever - just general recs.)
