When it comes to weddings, tears of emotion and tears of joy are part and parcel—but how about choosing a song that’s bright and instantly makes you happy when you hear it? Ulfuls’ “Banzai ~Suki de Yokatta~,” their 10th single released in 1996, is a massive hit that has been loved for a long time.

The chorus lyrics are great too—almost everyone can sing along, right? It’s not a bad idea to make your entrance or exit with a cheerful vibe in scenes that tend to get a bit sentimental.
