icepixie | Fanvid: "Happiness" [Astaire/Rogers Films]

Fred and Ginger dancing make me happy. This song makes me happy. Put them together, and you have joy squared! I hope it makes you happy too.

Song: "Happiness," by The Weepies
Source: All nine Astaire/Rogers RKO films (granted, Flying Down to Rio makes a rather token appearance, but then again, they didn't do much in that one)

You can also download the Quicktime (.mov) version (39 MB) at Mediafire.

Current Mood: happy
