I’ve got a few to lay out there. Perhaps there are more. What say you?
I say incorrect forum.
Reported.
Damn you’re fast. Move it as needed.
So vote, already, until it goes (maybe) to CS.
I’ll move it (IMHO --> Cafe Society) while I think about my answer. Too bad the title of the Motown classic is actually “My Girl.” (“I’ve got sunshine on a cloudy day…”)
Ain’t No Sunshine, Michael Jackson version.
Wait a minute! You forgot the immortal John Denver classic!
I’ve been waitin’ so long / For a poll just like this / I picked “Sunshine of Your Love”
How can you people not love “Ain’t No Sunshine” by Bill Withers? I thought better of you.
You forgot “Sunshine” by Jonathan Edwards – the happiest-sounding “Oh shit, I’ve just been drafted!” song ever.
I’ll be happy to add others that are worthy. And Snoooopy, why did you wait?
I voted for “Ain’t No Sunshine”, though it just noses out “Sunshine of Your Love” for me.

I’ve done the intro. Anyone care to post the links? I think the uninitiated could appeciate Sunshine superman as they may not know it. Smoke a fatty and enjoy.
“Don’t Let the Sunshine Fool Ya” by Townes Van Zandt.
“Wake Up Sunshine” by Chicago.
All great songs, but I have a very soft spot for Donovan’s song. My many accounts, Donavan was a real dick, but damn, I loved his music (not to mention the fact that he collaborated with Alice Cooper, of all people, on one of the coolest songs ever).
Here’s an obscure one. It’s a really great song, that sounds fun and summery, could-have-been-a-hit-type song, but the lyrics are indeed very creepy. It’s about stalking someone. I once had the CD with the lyrics but I can’t find it anywhere.
Let the Sunshine In - Cast of Hair, The 5th Dimension
Cast of Hair: yes
5th Dimension: no
A vote for “Ain’t No Sunshine” here. The Bill Withers version, please.
And here’s a link to, I think, the definitive version. (And get hep to the drummer, daddy-o. Smoooooothe. All reet!)
