Analysis: Having "Happy" come up for Life is pretty cool, and, I must say, fairly accurate. Although "Excuse Me While I Break My Own Heart Tonight" is kind of sad for a wedding. Then, I bounce back with "Shelter from the Storm" for the funeral.

And apparently, someone named "Johnny" kills me.

Oh well.
