Today is International Day of Happiness! In its second year, this annual event was created to encourage people to take action to create a happier world. Many organisations including the United Nations Foundation support the initiative. The United Nations has asked people to nominate songs for a playlist that bring a smile to their faces. 

We've created a little playlist of our own, showing our wide range of musical tastes and what makes us happy. Whether it's an inspirational quote, picture, a video, tag what makes you happy with #InternationalDayOfHappiness on social media!
