"Sunny Side: 2013 Volkswagen Game Day Video with Jimmy Cliff (Get Happy)" This Super Bowl 2013 teaser commercial features famous reggae singer, Jimmy Cliff, performing a hit from The Partridge Family - "C'mon Get Happy". It brings together the people from numerous YouTube videos who are crying or angry, and asks them, as the song says, to come on and get happy. The sad and angry people meet up with Jimmy Cliff in a beautiful open field and sing together. Some of the angry/sad clips include: * Woman who really loves cats and cries thinking about how she can't hug all of them * An angry politician yelling at a public meeting * A football fan in a cowboy hat crying about "sparkles" * A fat man smashing a guitar (Guitar Hero game controller) * An angry baseball manager yelling at an umpire, and throwing third base out into the middle of the baseball field * A golfer who gets angry and smashes his driver into the ground * An old man next to an RV yelling at people to get out of here * Two football mascots fighting on the sidelines * The cat lady crying again

I really love cats. I just want to hug all of them, but I can't. Who said that? Thank you! Drastic times require drastic measures. You took me ... sparkles. I told you not to do the sparkles. No! Get outta here, you jack ass. I'm sorry, I'm thinking about cats again. (Lyrics) Hello world, there's a song that we're singing Come on get happy Whole lot of loving is what we'll be bringing We'll make you happy We had a dream we'd be traveling together Spread a little love and then we'd keep moving on Something always happens whenever we're together We get to have the feeling when we're singing this song Oh, come on, c'mon get happy Oh, come on, c'mon get happy We'll make you happy (Cry sick cat hugging lady) We'll make you happy (Alright baseball manager) We'll make you happy (Screaming politician) We'll make you happy (Weatherman who's made to stand in a hurricane) We'll make you happy (Supermarket tantrum girl) We'll make you happy (Irritated llama) We'll make you happy Yeah yeah yeah yea yea yea yea We'll make you happy Ha ha hahaha
