LIGHTHOUSE - "SUNNY DAYS"
Topic: New Chords Postings

A mainstay of 1970's Top 40 radio (and later classic rock radio), the single "Sunny Days" has been referred to by one website (CanadianBands.com) as "Canada's summer anthem". The song went Top 40 on Billboard, and reached #4 on Canada's RPM Singles chart. The album the single came from was certified Gold, and the success of that album won Lighthouse a Juno Award for Best Group Of the Year.

The band has also gotten a lot of mileage out of the song for use as an album title. It was the title track of the album it first appeared on, 1972's Sunny Days. In 1989, the band released a greatest hits compilation entitled The Best Of Lighthouse: Sunny Days Again. And most recently, in 2009, the song was tapped once more for the title of the Lighthouse best-of CD/DVD set 40 Years Of Sunny Days. This serves as a testament to the ongoing popularity of this summer feel-good pop classic.
