It’s been played in all kinds of media around the world, so even after all these years since its release, it’s one of those timeless hits that everyone has heard.
The crisp, sun-drenched guitar strums a bluesy intro, and just hearing it transports you straight to the California coast.

Icona Pop are a techno duo from Sweden, and after the worldwide smash success of “I Love It,” they moved their base of operations to the United States.
The song could be described as a fusion of new wave and techno.
Its aggressive electronic sound pairs perfectly with the roomy, rock-tinged vocals.
The catchy melody was also a key factor in its massive success! It’d be perfect to go for a drive on a sunny day with close friends while listening to this track.

Pharrell Williams, who achieved worldwide breakthrough with collaborations such as those with Daft Punk.
Released in 2013, “Happy” is one of Pharrell’s signature songs and won the Grammy Award that year for Best Pop Solo Performance.
It’s a playful track that could be called an adult version of “If You’re Happy and You Know It.” The song’s cool appeal lies in Pharrell’s smooth vocals paired with a percussive yet unintrusive, smart track.
It’s a fun tune that feels more at home with a patch of blue sky glimpsed between towering city buildings than in the great outdoors.
