“Itell myself that it’s a happy world / Buy my own little place I can hide / Kinda dark but at least it’s mine.” Those memorable lyrics hail from the chorus of “Happy World”, a delightful single by singer Debbii Dawson.  She adds in the chorus, “House on fire but I’m closing the blinds / Tell myself, tell myself that I’m fine.” Way to embrace happiness… fire and all! Dawson penned this alternative pop single alongside Alida and producer, Zhone. From the opening to closing tip, “Happy World” is a surefire vibe.

For example, “Trouble comes trying to knock on my door / Painted red, it can’t reach me no more / I’ll stay in life six feet underground.” Whoa! Whether or not “The grass is [actually] always green / I never want to leave,” or that’s just what Dawson tells herself, there is no doubt that she ‘puts her foot’ into “Happy World” – it is an incredible song.
