Happy Days Are Here Again

***Happy Days Are Here Again*** je američka zabavna pjesma koju je 1929. godine komponirao Milton Ager, a tekst za nju napisao Jack Yellen. Originalno je zamišljena za filmski mjuzikl *[[Chasing Rainbows]]*, odnosno scenu u kojoj američki vojnici proslavljaju završetak prvog svjetskog rata, a u novembru 1929. ju je prvi snimio i izdao Leo Reisman. Njen izlazak je, pak, koincidirao sa krahom njujorške burze i početkom Velike ekonomske krize; smatra se kako je njen vedri i optimistični ton bio u potpunom neskladu sa teškim okolnostima u kojima su živjeli tadašnji slušatelji. Godine 1932. je demokratski predsjednički kandidat Franklin Delano Roosevelt prepoznao njen propagandni potencijal (uključujući naslov koji doslovno znači "Sretni dani su ponovno ovdje") te je iskoristio kao tematsku pjesmu svoje kampanje. Otada pa do danas *Happy Days Are Here Again* služi kao neslužbena demokratska himna koja se izvodi na njenim izbornim konvencijama.

Godine 1930. je u Njemačkoj službeno registrirano autorsko pravo na pjesmu *[[Wochenend und Sonnenschein]]* koja ima istovjetnu melodiju i koja je bila veliki hit tadašnje vokalne grupe *[[Comedian Harmonists]]*.
