"Happy" song? That's interesting, because Ave Verum Corpus doesn't affect me that way; rather, I sense deep reverence. As with much of Mozart's late music, I smile and weep at the same time.

If you want excitement, try any of Mozart's later symphonies or his Piano Concerto #20. Better yet, try Beethoven's Symphonies. But be prepared to take time: Beethoven's Third lasts nearly an hour, and his Ninth just over an hour. But an hour very well spent!

If you like earlier music, try J.S. Bach's Brandenburg Concertos.

(If you're already familiar with these, I apologize; I don't know how much you're acquainted with.)
