Good Vibrations by The Beach Boys is the happiest song, according to science

>>>Good Vibrations by The Beach Boys has been revealed as the song that makes people happiest, according to a scientific formula developed by a university professor.

The 1966 hit single ticks all the boxes in the formula devised by Dr Michael Bonshor, who has a PhD in music psychology and has extensively researched music in relation to wellbeing.

To create a happy song, Dr Bonshor believes a combination of a major key, 7th chords, 137 BPM, strong beat, four beats in every bar, and a verse-chorus-verse-chorus structure, is a sure-fire way to produce one.

It should also have a short intro, repeated riffs, high volume, bright tone, and a mix of predictability and surprise.

Other tracks which follow this formula include I Got You (I Feel Good) by James Brown, House of Fun by Madness, and Get the Party Started by P!nk.<<<
