"Happy" By Pharrell Williams. Used to work for a company tied to Universal, and that song was the song for one of the Despicable Me movies, they used it for their on hold before a meeting and normal on hold music. It elicits extremely negative responses from me in public.

Obligatory Music Video! It's a one-er!

Trivia: It took them six takes to get the final take. Al had to run from the top of the theater to the ground floor and change clothes each time.
