It has been much longer to the point I forgot about this song. It feels too good to hear such a good song after such a long period of shitty music being released.
Agreed! It's been about six years for me. I'm in my late 40's, so I wasn't really part of this scene, but I had somehow stumbled upon this song back then and liked it. Thing is, I lost the bookmark for it at some point, so tonight I couldn't remember the band's name or much of anything beyond "happy". Googling just gave me Pharrell over and over. Finally found it by unearthing an old bookmark backup on an unlabeled thumb drive. (Yay thumb drives!) So, I made it back here and... it makes me happy!
One friend of mine has listened to it so many times a time ago, probably five years ago. This one brings me such good memories, warm my heart ❤️. Beautiful song. 🇧🇷
Here in Perú, we have a radio station, "Doble 9" (Double 9), so, they used to play only new english rock and random songs at least two times in the same week and then not anymore. I was lucky hearing and finding this song many years ago.
Back when I'd catch songs playing on MTV at random times in the morning, write the names down on a piece of paper to look up later... this was one of countless such cases. Life had a much mellower feel to it back then.
I’ve never been this depressed in my whole live and I’ve listened to this song since it appeared in the radio and made me happy cuz I remembered all my youth, and now it brings nostalgia and always when I listen to this I feel really good and really happy. Thank you The Kooks
Well... the first time that I heard this song was in a psychiatry. I was at my absolute lowest point back then. And somehow, this song always made me feel way better. I will always remember that time 🥰
My god... I had completely forgotten about this song. Don't know why the chorus suddenly came to mind but I began to hum it. I had to really rack my brain in order to remember the lyrics (annoying tip-of-the-tongue situation) but once I rediscovered it so many memories came flooding back. No need to retread those memories here as it's only tangentially related. Needless to say I'm glad the universe decided I needed it back however briefly.
Junk of the heart Is junk in my mind So hard to leave you all alone We get so drunk That we can hardly see what use is that to you on me, baby See, I noticed nothing makes you shatter, no no you are a lover of the wild and a junker of the heart But are you mine? I wanna make you happy I wanna make you feel alive Let me make you happy I wanna make you feel alive at night I wanna make you happy you're a good girl, good night You seem to be sunk But life is no race When I'm not happy I'm in disgrace So I spent time guessing on you, oh You're a lover of the wild and a junker of the heart. But are you mine? I wanna make you happy I wanna make you feel alive Let me make you happy I wanna make you feel alive at night I wanna make you happy you're a good girl, good night Still I notice nothing makes you shatter, no no you're a lover of the wild and a junker of the heart But are you mine? I wanna make you happy I wanna make you feel alive Let me make
+Billy Bradshaw Because some people want the lyrics easily accessible without having to search for it on its own, not really nice to call it a waste of time when someone went out of their way to help write it down in the comments.
I heard this song for the first time in Barcelona when I was an Erasmus student in 2012. They had a street concert or something, we went there because one of us was a huge fan. I didn't know about this band and I forgot their name immediately. But the refrain, 'I wanna make you happy', was always in my ears. I could have google it indeed, but I didn't do. Years later (in 2020) I heard this song from someone's random mix (he didn't know the song at all), I got a huge flashback immediately back to my Barcelona experiences. Such a time travel this song caused me! Now I listen this song almost every week! It holds the 'whole memory package' from that semester...
It makes me sad every time I listen to this song. It always brings back memories. U promised to get to me again when u've settled all things up in the UK but now u're gone. I miss u so bad :'(
This bring back so many memories; It’s crazy how time flies, I used to listen this song when I was like 14 at 16 on high school I met this boy who had a lot of band names in his back pack, he didn’t talk to anyone even when everyone’s was interested on him, he got me at “the kooks” written down his backpack, I remember that I asked “do you like them?” and he was like “do you know them?” I saw that emotional eye looking expression and after that the we became close friends, we shared a lot of bands and he teached me how to play the guitar, after time he had to left school for family problems, we were still friends, even we tried to have a band but I had no time because school and mom didn’t let me, he was the only person that ever understoodme and even one time he gifted me “inside in/ inside out” by the kooks... and it’s been years that I don’t saw him I hope he’s doing ok. I know that no one asked me but if you readed this til here thanks I guess.
I discovered the song 5 years ago when I heard it playing in the window of a gelato stand in Capri and now every time I listen to it it makes me feel like I am back in the sun in Italy- completely carefree. :)
A dear bff introduced me to Junk of the Heart and Shine On quite some time ago...and I remember how happy it made me feel...he's very special...I don't think he truly knows how special he is...although I tell him...lol. he's British (and a kook fan) but he tends to keep his feelings to himself...very British!!...still he smiles in his quiet way so I think he gets it...we should always tell people the beauty we see in them and how special they are...that's what I think anyway...life can be short...it's important to let people know how truly special they are...don't wait to put a smile on their face...carpe diem...you won't regret it...we all need and want to be validated, to feel special...it's just human nature...we're not meant to be an island...Luke's voice is so unique...once you've listened to him, you can be anywhere and hear a kook song and know that it's Luke singing...isn't his voice so cool? I love Lukes' voice...hearing these songs makes me think of my dear bff...cheers to Gary 🥂🥰...bee happy!!! 🐦🐦 Brits rock!! 😎🤗😘
Wow! This song was my jam during college. So many memories! Got my first car and this was the first song I played in it and drove around happily. Got into my first relationship, played this song to her and she loved it. Now, I’m here again listening in 2017.
Junk of the heart is junk of my mind So hard to leave you all alone We get so drunk that we can hardly see What used to that, but you aren't me baby See I notice nothing makes you shatter no no You're a lover of the wild and a joker of the heart But are you mine? I wanna make you happy, I wanna make you feel alive Let me make you happy I wanna make you feel alive at night I wanna make you happy If you're a good girl tonight Yeah A ship to be sunk, life is not a race When I'm not happy I'm in disgrace So I spend time with pissing on you oh You're a lover of the wild and a joker of the heart But are you mine? I wanna make you happy I wanna make you feel alive Let me make you happy I wanna make you feel alive at night I wanna make you happy If you're a good girl tonight Yeah Still I notice nothing makes you shatter no no You're a lover of the wild and a joker of the heart But are you mine?

This song brings me so many great memories ❤️. A friend of mine has listened to it so many times along the time -4/5/6 years ago and still on and on... 🇧🇷
My ex played this album and konk while we were sleeping and that was the last night I saw him before he broke up with me and idk why I listen to the kooks because it makes me sad when I listen to them but I love them???
coincidentally, My ex who was long distance showed me The Kooks, and I instantaneously fell in love with them. Yet, It makes me sad because he used to sing me these songs all of the time, and he was from England and oddly resembled Luke. I dunno. It's from happy times. I feel you.
Por fin después de mucho tiempo la encuentro. La escuché muchas veces en una estación de radio, pero nunca supe que canción era o de quien era. hasta ahora.
It’s January 1, 2019 12:47 AM and despite the happy tune to this song I’m crying wondering where the time has gone, when things started getting so damn complicated.
Una canción que cuando la escuchas te sientes joven y con ganas de seguir luchando por la vida.
Siiiiiiiii
This song has this strange ability of being melancholic and happy at the same time.
like heroin
listen to it at 0.75 speed for some real feels
I think it has to be those beautiful shifting 13 chords that give it a sadhappy kinda feel
i'm crying and happy as hell after listening to it!
Try New Slang by the shins
hearing this after not listening to it for a year is sooooooooo goooood
Probably
It has been much longer to the point I forgot about this song. It feels too good to hear such a good song after such a long period of shitty music being released.

the kooks is every year the soundtrack of my summer and when I hear this song I really feel the sun shining on my skin.
In fact I made a playlist called summer breeze where I put this song Haha :)
Thats such a pleasent thing to say
dude totally!!!!
One of the best summers spent on my boat included this as a soundtrack.
My partner would hold my hand and hum this when I felt overwhelmed. This song makes me happy
This is so wholesome!!!
If you're watching this ten years later, you are 100% a LEGEND!!!!👍
I was 14. Im 24 now
Del 98? Igual yo 😁
This song is so end of afternoon seeing the sunset 😌 thinking about the loves that passed you by and things that could have been.

So true
damn right!
tienes toda la razón
A comment that struck my 💓.. beautifully said..
Back when I'd catch songs playing on MTV at random times in the morning, write the names down on a piece of paper to look up later... this was one of countless such cases. Life had a much mellower feel to it back then.
The Kooks are so underrated, they need so much more attention. Need them to come to Mexico!! 🇲🇽🇲🇽💕🙌🏻👏🏻
Under-rated? Didn't they go 4 x platinum in UK and platinum in other countries?
I think they were telling us too much our beloved music industry does not want us to know
Thanks to The Kooks for always makin' me happy and feel alive
Brings back so many memories...I'd listen to this over and over...
I can't be the only one that has to play this song at least a couple times in a row every time it comes on
You're not alone ;)
Me too man awesome song
Yeah i feel you
Youre right...its a brilliant song on my gym list!! 😁😁😁
2024 anyone?

Cheers to being better now I hope !
hope you're better now wherever you are.
Well... the first time that I heard this song was in a psychiatry. I was at my absolute lowest point back then. And somehow, this song always made me feel way better. I will always remember that time 🥰
This is one of my favorite songs ever. Time flies, but "Junk of the heart" never dies.
I seriously love this song. It just makes me so happy.
hi
Brandon McNulty Hey
This song stirs up emotions in me that I would like someone else to experience.
I think I'm in love with this song, the chorus is sooo cute
2019 and I'm still hearing this song, epic tune!
Same here
2020 darling
Eins Kartoffel 2020 april ;)
@@jake-ec6kc October!
Hope that you have found someone who is making you happy, if not lemme know.🙃
I like how this has an early 2000s feel to it. Brings back so many memories. It hits me square in the feels.🥲
Words can't describe how much I love this song!!
Mia Harding-Ricardt I feel you :)
This song boosts my mood...every single time
My god... I had completely forgotten about this song. Don't know why the chorus suddenly came to mind but I began to hum it. I had to really rack my brain in order to remember the lyrics (annoying tip-of-the-tongue situation) but once I rediscovered it so many memories came flooding back.
No need to retread those memories here as it's only tangentially related. Needless to say I'm glad the universe decided I needed it back however briefly.
Cause you mind want to make you happy? Maybe?
This group is Fantastic, this song makes me happy!
I think so too
I live for The Kooks and their music it‘s just a blessing to be listening to their music! 🥰😍😍
its just....something about this type of music gets me so excited for summer???? it such a warm feeling i love it
How can someone NOT like this song though
@VintageLazer yep
becuase they dont wanna make you feel happy
Maybe they’re not a white girl
Maybe because its gay?
because it's lame AND bland
Junk of the heart
Is junk in my mind
So hard to leave you all alone
We get so drunk
That we can hardly see
what use is that to you on me, baby
See, I noticed nothing
makes you shatter, no no
you are a lover of the wild
and a junker of the heart
But are you mine?
I wanna make you happy
I wanna make you feel alive
Let me make you happy
I wanna make you feel alive at night
I wanna make you happy
you're a good girl, good night
You seem to be sunk
But life is no race
When I'm not happy
I'm in disgrace
So I spent time guessing on you, oh
You're a lover of the wild
and a junker of the heart.
But are you mine?
I wanna make you happy
I wanna make you feel alive
Let me make you happy
I wanna make you feel alive at night
I wanna make you happy
you're a good girl, good night
Still I notice nothing
makes you shatter, no no
you're a lover of the wild
and a junker of the heart
But are you mine?
I wanna make you happy
I wanna make you feel alive
Let me make
Thank You!
why do people right down the words of the music its a bit of a waste of time . why no right something of your own.

Junk of the heart is junk of my mind
So hard to leave you all alone
We get so drunk that we can hardly see
What used to that, but you aren't me baby
See I notice nothing makes you shatter no no
You're a lover of the wild and a joker of the heart
But are you mine?
I wanna make you happy, I wanna make you feel alive
Let me make you happy
I wanna make you feel alive at night
I wanna make you happy
If you're a good girl tonight
Yeah
A ship to be sunk, life is not a race
When I'm not happy I'm in disgrace
So I spend time with pissing on you oh
You're a lover of the wild and a joker of the heart
But are you mine?
I wanna make you happy
I wanna make you feel alive
Let me make you happy
I wanna make you feel alive at night
I wanna make you happy
If you're a good girl tonight
Yeah
Still I notice nothing makes you shatter no no
You're a lover of the wild and a joker of the heart
But are you mine?
I wanna make you happy, I wanna make you feel alive
Let me make you happy, I wanna make you feel alive at night
I wanna make you happy
If you're a good girl tonight

Definitely my favourite song from Kooks. This song makes me feel really happy, in spite that the lyrics is about melancholy 😍💙🇬🇧🎶
I found my old lost memory card n found this gem
The first album is classic
I've seen The Kooks live last year and of course I listened to this great song!
Todavía estoy escuchando esta canción en estos tiempos y me fascina su letra y su ritmo 🎵
i'm usually not into music as soft, but this is a masterpiece. like everyone says, it invokes happiness.
This is one of my main comfort songs, I just love it so much.
The intro is soooo Blur it hurts, niceee.
More like the main riff
also a bit of mgmt?
MrEmafon4 Nunca mais blasfeme comparando esse lixo com The Kooks

Been in love with this song since ‘12 💕
It's impossible to listen to this and not feel "happy" ...
¡Qué recuerdos! Me transporta al 2014 durante mi adolescencia, y desde ese entonces no la volví a escuchar... Hasta ahora.
THIS IS ONE OF THE GREATEST SONGS EVER, LOVE IT!!!!
My ex played this album and konk while we were sleeping and that was the last night I saw him before he broke up with me and idk why I listen to the kooks because it makes me sad when I listen to them but I love them???
😒 wtf why did he leave you?
That's sad:(

Tayler its because you still have fond memories when u listen to them...
coincidentally, My ex who was long distance showed me The Kooks, and I instantaneously fell in love with them. Yet, It makes me sad because he used to sing me these songs all of the time, and he was from England and oddly resembled Luke. I dunno. It's from happy times. I feel you.
Por fin después de mucho tiempo la encuentro. La escuché muchas veces en una estación de radio, pero nunca supe que canción era o de quien era. hasta ahora.
