From the article: Songs About Being Single and Happy
There's a certain joy to being single, a lightness of being even. Different from angry breakup songs or the conquering, "I don't need you" -type fare, being single and happy songs are more focused on our own selves rather than someone else. Have a song that makes you feel great about being single? Then share yours here with other readers, or take a peek at what others have to say. Share Your Favorite Songs

Single Songs
- Maybe I'm going in a different direction here, but I like "It's Only Me" and "Goodnight" by Melissa Etheridge. Both from the Skin album.

Song my Mother used to sign
- My mother used to sing "I Wish I Was Single Again". She was born in 1909 but she sang the song in the 40s as I recall.

Happy song
- Here I go again on my own....Always makes me feel good after a breakup
- —Guest Jamie
Mostly women
- I've noticed that it's mostly female artists you have here who sing about being single. Think you can find some more songs about men celebrating singleness? What does that tell you about society? I would suggest "Don't Shed A Tear" by Paul Carrack, but perhaps that's more of a breakup song. Does Shiny Happy People really qualify? Or I've Got No Strings?
