My dad played this on all road trips when I was a child. Good times. Nothing but music chosen by my parents. The good parents.

Bert Kaempfert war ein großer Musiker ich habe alle seine Platten ich verehrte ihn bis heute Mega🌹 danke

This Bert Kaempfert hit ACTUALLY puts a smile on my face whenever I hear it. It's that powerful.

I remember riding with my dad. We gave him an FM converter for his car that only had AM. He was able to listen to his station, WTFM that played Bert Kemphert as well as Andre Kostalonitz(sp?), Herb Alpert and the Tijuana Brass, as well as others. I remember " That Happy Feeling" playing as we drove up to Northern New Jersey in the winter, grounds covered with snow for a weekend at my aunt and uncles house. I watched this video, and was brought back to that exact moment. Thank you.

My Dad loved Bert Kampfert.. I so enjoy still listening to these beautiful melodies!! Happy memories from my childhood ❤️

Its amazing how a song can bring back joyous memories of a time in your life, this one hits a deep cord in my childhood. The 60s were a great time for me. Thanks mom and Dad for the life. Thanks Bert for the music to remember it by.

I heartily second that comment-the 60's was a good time in my life,too.

As a kid in the late 50s & early 60s I remember watching The Sandy Becker Show on channel 4 in New York while he ended his show everyday with this song. I loved waiting for his theme song because it made me feel good listening to it. As I hear it now I can still see my old living room with that Philco B&W TV and my friends sitting on the floor with me. Some are gone now and so is Sandy but this music lives on. Hearing it makes me smile again reliving my childhood, thanks for posting it.

The sad and untimely passing of Bert Kaempfert left a big void in the world of music. He is not easily forgotten. This great tune composed by him befits our memories of him and his genius

This brings me right back to WEMP... Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Early 1960's. A joyful memory

❤❤❤ I was a kid then took. Lived in st Francis in Milwaukee. Listened to a station out of west bend. Such great memories ❤

Never gets old very refreshing when you listen to it .♥️

This melody never fails to make my happy when I hear it. One of those which are really worth to hear and enjoy.

I had heard this song as a kid, but never knew the name of it. When my folks bought a stereo in 1970, it came with an 8 track tape player. We joined the RCA music club and got 8 tapes for 5 bucks and we got a Bert Kaempfert best of tape. When we played it, this was the second song. Well, I was overjoyed. Finally, I had the song.

CAN'T HELP BUT FEELING HAPPY

I love this Bert Kämpfert song!

Can't believe my comment has so many likes . .. This is joyful music .. Music .. and that's what matters .. it stirs a feeling .. whether it was generations before mine .. It is music and Joy ..

A very nice tune I used to hear long ago when I was a kid and a teenager. What I like in it is it really conveys happiness. And I feel happy everytime I hear it. Grand! One only has to listen to this fabulous tune to be happy.

In the 1960's, my mother used to put the test pattern on and listen to the music while she was.cleaning This song and another kaempfert song ,'swinging safari', were mainstays . Great memories !

Beautiful music and beautiful Arizona snow!

I love this good song very much. Thank you & Bert Kaempfert.

You know,it's been nearly 60 years since I last heard this song! It fits this video so well! Reminds me when we used to go to Colorado on vacation.My Mom really liked Bert Kaenpfert's music.We had a single of Afrikaan Beat" on 45,which I used to play over and over on the Silvertone console.Really miss those days!

When ever i need a lift, all i do is play this tune. It lifts me up straight away, and gives me my own "happy feeling"...

I'm with you Stephen, fantastic isn't it. I'm 65, so my boys think this is music for oldies, but I remind the eldest, a Metallica fan, what chance will their music have of being enjoyable, wonderful and perfectly up-to-date 57 years later?

I remember this great song when it came out in 1962. For months we'd walk to school with That Happy Feeling coursing through our heads. Wonderful memories, and I love the song as much today.

From the good days of life.

I love Bert's music!

At 85 yrs old, if I need a pick me up in the morning, this is it, it gets my blood running.

How the memories come flooding back, my parent's playing this at home in Scotland, this makes me so happy.

Excellent video! Great for road travel. That Happy Feeling was recorded in 1962, not a 50's recording. Never get tired of that song, thanks to one television station in Los Angeles, CA I watched as a kid growing up. Well done!

I remember this as a young child growing up in Wisconsin. Absolutely loved it. They used this as theme music for a local outdoors and fishing show in my hometown in the early 70's.

That Happy Feeling Album , always love it , the geatest memory ..

Endless melody..thanks God for inspiring such tender and vibrant music to the Great Bert!!

Es inconfundible y mágico el toque de Bert Kaemfert, me encanta Ese Feliz Sentimiento, una de mis melodias favoritas,

I think Bert Kaempfert was my all time favorite band leader his music was the greatest especially Wonderland by night

The ultimate Bert Kaempfert music. This one has so much memories for me I dont even know where to start. My parents used to have this album and as kids would play musical chairs with this. This is back in 1975 by which time this had already been a hit. In Zambia a number of the songs from his album "A Swingin' Safari" were themes on radio and television shows back when we had TVZ! TVZ later became ZBS which then became ZNBC here in Zambia! What sweet nostalgia.

I loved it too, i.m born in the congo in 1951 and travel also in zambia, zwimbabwe and south africa during the years 1960.

esta musica es sencillamente fascinante! una de las mejores melodias grabadas por el maestro Kaempfert! cada vez que lo escucho rindo un honor a los talentosos!

Sometimes we do not give the entire orchestra a full credit . With is song Burt Kaempfert was wonderful was just marvelous, he shows that Music have no colour .Just one of the very best !!

This was one of the theme songs for The Sandy Becker Show, a kid's show that aired from 1955 to 1968. I watched it when I was young kid in the 1960s.

I finally found this song!

This makes me think of a drive home in the dead of winter, from Regina to our small town in Saskatchewan, in the mid-60s. Utterly enchanting.

best video ever!

Beautiful song, beautiful your country!

Great video for a great tune. Reminds me of going home to Whistler, B.C. Thanks!!

One of my fondest memories was when my dad brought home the album by total surprise (it wasn't my birthday or anything like that - I had been riding with my dad in the car, and he could tell I loved the song - still do. In 1970, the single would be unobtainable). Played that album until it looked and sounded like sandpaper. Good takes on Similau and Sunday in Madrid as well.

I love this song, and it's title matches it exactly! I used to visit my grandparent's in northern NJ and this was the opening music for the Sandy Becker Show out of NYC. Such happy memories of being young, carefree, and waiting for your favorite TV programs--what antcipitaiton! Thanks for the memories!

this is why I added it to my list - I used to always remember when I would hear the music - I would yell to the kids - "it's Sandy Becker time" - now when they're older they don't remember the show or the song - so I checked it out and found these -- it was more of an excitement and memories for me than the kids - glad you enjoyed it -it's a happy time !

Absolute heavenly elation! Gorgeous, lovely, child like. It conveys a higher reality with nothing to worry about.

Charming! Reminds me of family drives in a Saskatchewan winter, all those decades ago with Bert on the radio. Older cars along the way, of course, but that crazy looking around through a child's eyes, at the winter around me, couldn't be better captured than with a lovely Bert song like this.

this song always makes me happy ,reminds me of the joy of the times I use to have

I forgot the music that I rediscovered here. Half a century passed by! How much we have changed towards tooth and claw. We love corporate culture! Sigh. I wish we could all go back to the days when the sky was blue, the valley was green.......fill up the rest yourself.

lot of happy memories with this song. and the video footage reminds me of back in the 60's, when I was little and my parents and I used to drive up to Idlewild occasionally on the weekend ,and my dad always had the radio on KBIG FM and they played this song a lot. we heard it on the way up there one time... we rented a cabin up there for a week one summer. it was so peaceful and Awesome there! those were great times in my life :)

Every time I Hear This Track It All Ways Cheers Me Up Even When Time's Are Tough It Just Gives me That Happy Feeling Back Every time

I get that happy feeling whenever I listen to this music

Joyful happy music masterpiece !!! sorry Bert ,today they just cant compete !!

great thanks for the memories just thinking of my mom and dad in our living room with his reel to reel and living the perfect life

This music makes my heart fly.

This song was used on a show called Tourist Topics broadcast from Sydney , Nova Scotia in 1968. I never knew the name of it until yesterday. Brings back lots of memories.

I love the bass line of this song- it's what I believe is called a "walking" bass line, and it's so perfect. It's apparently enough of a feature of this song to warrant TWO basses, as well- a standup bass playing that "walk" on the downbeat, and an electric bass being plucked with a pick, adding some rhythmic counterpoint. Such a nicely arranged and perfectly executed piece!

That electric bass played a "percolator" part. I believe Bert was the first to use this technique.

@@joey_bonin A "percolator" part? I'm not familiar with that term, but I think I understand, and it sounds like a pretty apt term; I like it. The electric bass in this piece seems to dress up the steady downbeat of the standup bass line, giving the song a more jaunty sound with a little bit of a spring to its step.

@@catkeys6911 That's the idea. "Tequila" by the Champs is a good example. The percolator part on that record is more elaborate.

Such a simple melody, yet so perfect. It does perfect musical circles in the major scale, the musicianship is flawless, and arrangement is perfect. It really IS the song of happiness.

Love this music !! I'm from New York, but I have been to Mormon Lake and Mormon Lake Lodge ! Ahhh......the memories....

This is so nice to hear and to remember how being in love is when one is young For me love is that happy feeling. The rhythm is great and the tune very nice to hear. Every instrument is played at the precise moment and the chorus is very good too. So it is very nice to hear.

Yes Virginia, there was a time when people looked respectable, music was sweet, and the world had time to stop and smell the roses.

I love this tune.

Bert was brilliant. All his instrumentals are inspired.

Simple yet totally captivating...

No enough words to describe it's charm & magic.i got this LP 2nd hand in Delhi street market in 1978.just refound it yesterday.simply nostalgic memories

Love the 60s

Happy feeling alright, takes me back. great memories.......best music ever!

I was in HS in Lancaster, PA, 1960-63, when this one and others of HK's songs came out. They were all faves and still are!

Bert will never be replaced

Beautiful the snow and the road it goes to anywhere in the USA!!!!!!!

It kept me entertained when our TVs station had technical difficulties in the 60s. This is the song that they played.

I love this video. I have a weird memory of our family driving home from Regina to Estevan, Saskatchewan, when I was a kid in the mid-60s and this great song on the radio, as I dreamily watched the snowy landscape going by.

Very professional and superb real music.

Beautiful video and ofcourse Bert Kampfert is the perfect accompaniment

excellent made my day!!!!! Thank you... I really needed that

This song brings back numerous memories. When I was in the Navy stationed at Guantanamo Bay in 1964, this was the the Radio Station Theme song, we heard it every morning when they came on and every evening when they signed off..Have to admit FTG GTMO WILL ALWAYS BE REMEMBERED

Looks like a happy memory.

Reminds my of my grandad he was a bit free and he always played this really load .Don't think Brenda next door was to pleased . Happy memories wish I could turn the clock back . Sad

"Ese feliz sentimiento" Bella melodía que lo hace a uno feliz al escucharla. Ha sido una de mis favoritas por más de 50 años. No solo el ritmo sino la melodía y la forma como son tocados los instrumentos y el coro hacen de esta una gran tonada.

This song was even recorded in Hindi. I just can't recall the movie. Such a joyous song

Thanks for this ever green piece of music

Such beautiful music 🎶 it's so relaxing to listen to thank you so much

This song always reminds me of childhood days when Channel 61 in Cleveland would use it as their sign-off song...wow, remember when TV stations used to sign-off ??? 😂😂😂

I found this song on my brother's Uher tape recorder upon his return home after serving in the army stationed in Germany, late 1963. Jim is gone now but this song reminds me of what a wonderful human being he was.

Dear. Bert. Kaempfert. I have. Always. Loved. You're. Music. This Track. Would Have to be there. A mung. The greatest hits of. All. Time

I love listening to Bert Kaempfert. My Mother had the Longein collection. I wore them out listening to them. I always liked all kinds and styles of music. Sence I was a like. I like rock and roll and classical music. I listened to all of them. And I still do. On KZread i can listen to all of them.

This song really makes me feel good !

I listened to Cousin Brucie play this piece on my way to work from WABC radio in NYC at approx 720 am.

Thanks to Bert. The entire album was dedicated to Southern Africa, especially South Africa, Rhodesia, Zambia, Malawi, Lesotho, Swaziland, Botswana and Mozambique. The best musical gift in the 60s

I love the song its so happy

The music of my LIFE

That happy feeling was played a lot on many AM radio stations during the summer of 1962 nationwide.
