#3 - A song that makes you happy

Easy choice.

"Mr. Tambourine Man", by Bob Dylan.

This song does for me what The Adventure of Tom Sawyer, when I first read it years ago, and later a number of R.K.Narayan's stories did - it turns me into a carefree 10-year old on the streets of a peaceful and dusty old town with nothing to do but run around the streets and swim in the river. Don't ask me how.

Also, this song has spawned so many cover versions that I am unable to find the original by Dylan himself on Youtube. Here is a live version. A cover by The Byrds is also pretty decent, while we're at it.
