You need to find it yourself.
The song title is all that this here computer will paste from youtube.
you missed the point, again.
My interpretation of the words was literal, and thus objective.
You cannot connect to the song because no internet connection was provided to a referenced link.
You must either rely on memory to experience the song, or connect to youtube with your own machine, either bought, rented, or borrowed.
Any other interpretation is figurative.
Once again, 'this one' keeps 'missing the mark'.

Edit out that word
"just," and I think you'll be on to something there, at time in the history of the world, Age.
If happiness is not just an emotion, then what else is 'it', then?
Happiness infuses consciousness as a filter, however, the reactionary analytical attention upon conceptual opposites, that is made possible by the involuntary dualistic filter that mirrors physical bilateral symmetry, roots out opposites by discovering badness in the good until the worrywart finds itself cured of happiness.
Happiness is a state of mind, which means that happiness is an energetic frequency accessed by the brain receiver as an autonomic reaction to stimuli, which means that happiness is a frequency transmitted by the One Mind, and received by those tuned to the frequency of happiness that is innate to all but corrupted by static in the attic.
The stimuli that generates tuning to the happiness frequency often defies notions of importance, perspective, and causation ... which is why folks accepted Citizen Kane's last word to mean a sled.
So, once again, 'happiness' is just an emotion, and when one knows that they have reached, or obtained 'happiness' is when the thought, 'I am happy', and/or, 'I feel happy', is made, when it is really meant.

Meditation empties the mind of thought, however, one meditates to live … one does not live to meditate ... or for the effects of mindless happiness, like a little puppy dog.

Here you go, Age. After stepping away from the machine and putting the incident of machine resistance on the back burner, a hypothesis formed which led to deducing how to thwart the machine that would deny you music. These machines need a good thwarting now and then.

Okay?

Okay?
you are now getting even further away from the mark, and from the point.

I see, beating a horse that has been dead a long, long time, is still a fad.
Today, we have a history of actual science, why not, happiness is, as Plato stated, doing one's own work? Or in today's jargon, A mind doing its own work is simply functional.
